Today is the first day of meteorological summer. Whether you choose to think it is the first day of summer, or tend to side with the sun, moon, and stars, and wait until June 21 is entirely up to you. Maybe summer is just a mindset.
Last day of April brings us a bit above average temperatures. Nothin’ crazy. Noticeable breeze from the south and clouds will aid in keeping you a lil cooler.
Tonight
The HRRR model (above) shows some storms popping off and moving into our area around 7-9p. These storms should move out fairly quick. However, they may carry some lightning, so if you have outdoor plans, have a way to seek shelter inside. If thunder roars, go indoors. No severe weather is expected at this time, but stay connected.
Rain has moved out and we will (probably) stay dry today. Temps will reach the upper 60’s, not bad for a Saturday in April.
Garth Brooks looks all good to go tonight, no lightning or thunder concerns. NAM 3k model has some light showers this evening, HRRR model has no such showers. If I had to guess, I’d side with the HRRR, but it would be unwise to rule out another model solution. Looks as if you and your friends will not be in low places tonight.
Currently some showers in West TN, slowly making their way towards us.
The Dry Air Monster is feasting on these showers. I doubt any rain this rain will make it to the ground. If it does, amount would be just enough rain to cause a nuisance, not “oh no rainout, cancel all outdoor plans” kinda rain.
Today is nearly a repeat of yesterday. High temps will be somewhere in the upper 70’s. BTW, record high temp for BNA today is 80°, we’ll see if we make it there. It’ll be windy today, with a wind coming from the south at around 15-20mph, with gusts up to 30mph. You may see a shower tonight around the midnight hour, won’t be anything consequential.
This morning light wintry precip has been coming in from the southwest. It’s of no consequence. BNA and all other personal weather stations scattered around are above freezing, so no problems.
More showers (liquid variety, not frozen) might slide in here around lunch, but the majority of them are expected to stay to our south.
This cold weather may have you feeling like Josh Norman.
And these temps aren’t going anywhere, anytime soon.
However, besides the cold temps, today is a great day for some Titans football.
No rain or frozen precipitation today. Besides for maybe a few cirrus clouds streaming in, the sun will be out today which should help to make it not feel so cold.
