Summer started at 11:39 AM. I love this GIF so imma leave it right here, new GIFs below …
… and gave us a big HELLO at Warner Park:
At 3 PM, a strong line of thunderstorms was forming along a south-moving outflow boundary located to our north across Kentucky. It prompted a Severe Thunderstorm Watch in KY:
Current Radar
NWS-Nashville forecasts a max heat index (“feels like”) of 100°.
High pressure aloft is suppressing our rain chances. Rain relief unlikely.

This is the classic Nashville summertime pattern. Gets hot, it’s already humid, and downpours pop up afternoon, last into the early evening, then die off. This happened close to and just south of downtown, in Thompson’s Station/Franklin, and between Brentwood and Nolensville. None of them were little sprinklers, but they barely moved, and collapsed after a few hours. Where will they be today?

Well, that was exciting. Lots of lightning, torrential rain, and big hail. This was from @AshleyCB84:
A Flash Flood Warning remains effective until 8 PM inside the green polygon:
The bad storms are gone; however, a few small showers currently to our NW may still work through tonight.
Current Radar
Dewpoints are also creeping toward the mid-60°s, so it’ll start getting humid, too.
Still no meaningful chance of rain during the day.
Tonight, we may see a shower squeeze out north of 40, but that looks unlikely. It’s just hard to completely rule out rain when temps go this high with this much moisture in the air.
