Most of us got above freezing for a couple of hours today, getting some effective melting done.
Temperatures will continue to be on the climb over the next several days – topping out in the low 60s early next week.
In true Middle Tennessee weather fashion, we go straight from talking about our severe/flood threat to winter weather.
Much colder week ahead.
Temperatures will be below average the entire week – well below average Wednesday thru Saturday. Sub-freezing temps may be with us Tuesday evening thru Friday, maybe longer.
We’ve already dealt with some flash flooding – along with creek/river rises so far today. This threat will continue thru Sunday as creek and rivers continue to rise with heavy rainfall expected tonight. If you come across a flooded roadway – turn around, don’t drown. If you see flooding that is threatening structures or vehicles, please send us a report using #tSpotter, with a pic and location if you can do so safely.
Headlines:
Heavy rain is still expected on Saturday, potentially lingering into early Sunday. Our rainfall totals have come down a tad due to the axis of heaviest rain inching to the NW. Regardless, we still could deal with some flooding issues.
Headlines:
Before we jump into our very active weekend, the rest of today and Friday should be dry.
We’ll wake up to temps in the low to mid 20s Friday morning – the coldest we’ve dealt with in a while. A jacket will certainly be needed in the morning for the bus stop.
Headlines:
Rain will come to a pause (for now) over the next couple of hours. Rainfall totals have thankfully been light today, the same unfortunately cannot be said about this weekend.
But first, we are lucky enough to get two dry days out of Thursday and Friday.
