Nice End of the Week, Easter Sunday Rainout
Rain, Maybe Storms, Tuesday, & Are We Done Freezing?
Comfortable Sunday & Monday
Mostly sunny, highs Sunday (today) 77°, and 79° Monday.
Humidity will rise each day this week. Dewpoints in the low 60s Tuesday and Wednesday.
Rain, Potential Storms Return Tuesday
Models believe it’ll rain Tuesday.
A specific ETA is unknown because although models agree it’ll rain, they aren’t sure when. Rain could begin as early as Tuesday morning or as late as Tuesday afternoon, and should clear out by Wednesday morning. The rain should come in short waves with no expected rainouts, but, on Tuesday night . . .
Some Rain, but Severe Weather Unlikely for the Foreseeable Future
Nice End of the Week
Thursday’s high reaches 66° with mostly sunny skies. Copy and paste this for Friday, but with a high temp of 77°.
This was me reading this forecast.
Weekend Showers?
Saturday starts partly sunny, then a light rain system moves close by Saturday night and Sunday. It may or may not produce local rain. Models think the system is weak, lacking rainmaking and storm-making ingredients. Some of us may get a little rain, no washout.
Chance of Rain Tuesday, Otherwise Great Week Ahead
Comfortable Sun/Mon
Sunday (today): Dry, sunny, high of 71°, 15 MPH winds with gusts as high as 25 MPH.
Monday: Copy and paste Sunday, but with a high of 69° and a light breeze.
This is perfect weather if you ask me.
Rainy Tuesday
Both the EURO and GFS models agree it’ll rain on Tuesday. While rain is expected to begin Tuesday morning, the good news it that it will move out by Tuesday evening/night.
Rain/Storms Expected Saturday Afternoon/Night (so far, it doesn’t look like a big deal)
Nice End to the Week
Thursday: Sunny, high of 81°, southerly winds of 5-15 MPH with gusts as high as 20 MPH.
Friday: Some clouds move in, dry, high of 83°.
Overall, a great end to the week.
The Weekend: Rain Chances Return
Saturday starts off dry, but the chance of rain increases later into the afternoon and evening.
Rain and Potential Storms Thurs Night/Fri, Cooler Weekend Ahead
Round 2 Storms Tonight
As of 4 PM, Davidson County (Nashville) remain in the Tornado Watch issued earlier today, set to expire at 5 PM. Williamson County is currently not included. It’s expected this Tornado Watch will expire without anything bad happening. We were on the southern edge of the Watched area, storms prompting the Watch passed to the north earlier this afternoon.
Two Rounds of Severe Weather Possible: Timing/ETA, Hazards, Threats, Risks.
This morning, Will tweeted “Do not seek definitive answers. Seek info.” Wish definitive answers existed about what will happen today. They don’t. Instead we have probabilities about what might happen. This forecast is not a prediction, it’s a threat/risk assessment, expressed as probabilities and updated throughout the day. Later today information will be more precise, timing more certain, passed quickly to you via Twitter. Be flexible, stay alert. Have a way to get warnings, and consult multiple reliable severe weather information sources (local TV meteorologists are great!).
Wet But Warm Week Ahead
Off and On Rain Begins Monday
… and off and on rain will carry on throughout the week.
TIMING
The HRRR model thinks scattered showers will begin Monday night (tonight) around 9 or 10pm:
The GFS model also thinks rain begins later this evening with a break after Tuesday morning, heavier rain Wednesday afternoon, and then more off and on showers through Friday:
