Smoke

Smoke from wildfires in Canada has made its way down here and caused some hazy conditions.

This looks more like a scene from an apocalypse movie, but nope, it’s Nashville.

This haze and smoke will linger, leaving us with an Air Quality Alert today. Take it easy if you have respiratory issues. Smoke will clear by Tuesday. read more

A bit of a tough forecast the next few days. Daily rain chances, impossible to know exactly when and where.

Storm Prediction Center has places west of I-65 outlooked with a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds within 25 miles today. This is of course, dependent on if storms actually pop-up. HRRR and NAM3k models both show nothing today. Models are guidance, not gospel, so it’ll be important to stay connected if you have outdoor plans. read more

One, probably two more dry days ahead of us. Rain chances return Wednesday but most of the activity looks to stay to our west. The humidity goes up tomorrow so if you have anything outside you need to get done, today is your day. read more

Not too often you get a big donut for rain chances in July, but today and tomorrow (ok I know it’s 1% but close enough) are examples of it.

Our dry streak will be short-lived as rain chances return Wednesday and stick with us the rest of the week. Along with rain chances returning, the humidity will also return as heat index values climb into the 100’s. read more
