At 11:04 AM, the cold front was entering Tennessee.
As you can see, a very weak area of showers was crawling down 24. ETA for us is mid/late afternoon…assuming it makes it.
The HRRR may be exaggerating the extent of the rain, and even it breaks it up on arrival.

Each day, the high creeps up a bit. Yesterday, we hit 84° (at 3:13 PM). Today we’ll hit 85°, Thursday 87°, and 88° by Friday.
Humidity is creeping up, too. By Friday, the dewpoint will spill over 60°, which may require an extra deodorant swipe. Please consult this handy table:

Good morning, Middle Tennessee (and Venus)! This morning's low of 50° F at Nashville is the coolest since May 22. pic.twitter.com/JTWYS5TM2h

The shortwave arrived this afternoon on-time and as-expected, and started spreading light rain in widely-spaced pockets around Middle TN.
That’ll continue tonight. As the base of the trough arrives, we expect a little rain, and we can’t rule out infrequent lightning, but the associated rain will be very light — and most of it should go east of us.

So, bring a rain jacket or umbrella, but the lightning will be gone by dark.
We should be pretty clear, although cloudy, in the morning.
As cooler, drier air pours in from the north, an upper level disturbance will swing down the back side of the departing trough. This will cloud us up and may bring intermittent rain in late morning and into the afternoon. It shouldn’t be much, but the weather models are calling for it.
