Mostly dry today. Cannot rule out a stray shower or (non-severe) thunderstorm this afternoon though – that’s something we’ll have to keep an eye on. For those with outdoor plans, proceed optimistically but keep an eye on the radar. When thunder roars, go indoors.
If you have outdoor plans today, the trend has been your friend.
Models have trended drier and drier over the past couple days. It appears likely that most of our plans during the day today will get away with being dry. Still can’t totally rule out a stray shower or storm, especially as we get into this evening, so keeping the rain gear handy is a good idea.
More great weather today, highs in the low to mid 80s. Plenty of sun, no rain chances.
Friday:
I feel pretty good about the majority of the day Friday being dry. Rain chances will creep up a tad as we head closer to the afternoon/evening hours – but I think up thru sunset has a decent shot at staying dry.
We continue to enjoy our nice Spring weather today and Thursday. Highs in the low to mid 80s, tame dew points and no rain will lead to great conditions for any outdoor plans you may have.
The Storm Prediction Center has outlooked our area with a 5% chance of severe weather within 25 miles for Friday. The threats look to be confined to just low-end damaging straight-line wind and/or hail. Not seeing anything that would suggest a tornado threat.
Our very nice weather will continue through Thursday.
Our forecast will essentially be a copy + paste thru then, with highs in the low 80s, plenty of sun and no rain chances. Humidity levels will remain low, great weather for any outdoor activities you may have.
Very nice weather this work week, at least up until Friday.
Temperatures will gradually warm up throughout the week, returning to the low to mid 80s. Humidity levels will be tame, so it’ll be a fairly tolerable low to mid 80s.
Well, those storms last night were something. Thanks for all the reports!
Today we are hot and dry. We’ll make a run at 90° – which if we do get there, it would be tied for the second earliest 90° day on record. Our average first day to hit that mark isn’t until May 27.
The Storm Prediction Center continues to have our two counties outlooked with a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds and/or hail within 25 miles for storms this evening. We are not included in any probabilities for tornadoes.
Elevated fire danger today thanks to low relative humidity values, gusty winds and our recent lack of rain. Outdoor burning is highly discouraged.
Our well above average temperatures will continue thru Saturday. Today and Friday will both have a run at the daily record high temperatures – 87° set in 1936 for today, 90° set in 1955 for Friday.
BNA reported a total of 0.02″ of rain yesterday, which was nice to keep the temperatures down a little, but won’t do much at all in terms of helping us with our worsening drought.
Today we’ll have plenty of sun to help our high temperatures surge into the mid to upper 80s. Our daily record high is 89° (set in 2017), so we’ll see if we can make a run at it.
