Chance for a Shower Today, Rain Likely Tomorrow/NFL Draft Night, Mostly Dry and Clear Weekend

Today: Warm, Potential for Scattered Showers

Today we can expect to see mostly sunny skies with a high of 83°.

There is the chance for a shower or two, though they are more likely to pop up in the late afternoon/early evening hours. The HRRR doesn’t show any showers here, but a front boundary (responsible for the potential shower or two) could drop close to the TN/KY state line. I would carry an umbrella just to be on the safe side. Tonight, lows drop to around 61°. read more
