Current radar imagery has showers and some non-severe thunderstorms moving across the entire Middle Tennessee area. These storms, for Davidson and Williamson county so far, have been non-severe. The severe weather threat, however, is still not ruled out.
Showers have begun to pop-up across the Middle Tennessee region. If you have any afternoon or early evening plans, you may want to keep the umbrella handy just in case.
Luckily, any thunderstorms we see today should be weaker than those we saw yesterday. Nonetheless, there is always the possibility of damaging winds and small hail with these afternoon thunderstorms. I will also mention that localized flooding could become an issue for areas that have already received a lot of rain this week.
Scattered showers and some non-severe thunderstorms have begun to fire up across Middle Tennessee. These showers will continue to push through the area for the remainder of the afternoon.
While there is no severe weather expected with any thunderstorms we see, they also need to be taken serious. Frequent lightning, strong wind gusts, heavy rainfall, and even some small hail could be associated with these thunderstorms. Be sure you are not caught outside when one arrives!
Today was really hot … we even set a new record.
Today we set a record high for April 14, 89°, breaking the record of 88° set in 2006.

Once the sun goes down tonight, our temps will cool off rapidly. If you plan to be outside at any point tonight, you are going to want/need a jacket.
Temperatures will be extremely cold overnight, dropping down into the low 30s (even possibly below freezing). If you have any type of sensitive vegetation, you are going to want to either bring it inside, or protect it from these bitter temperatures.
