Muggy day with dewpoints in the upper 60’s and high temps in the upper 80’s. With a soupy airmass in place, more Wattery showers/lightningstorms will be possible today, but it’s more than likely you stay dry, but maybe not.

“The Glorious Frustrations Of Weather Forecasting” + Looks Like A Wet Week Ahead
/Most of us were supposed to see rain yesterday. A majority of the models thought the coverage of rain would be widespread. Instead, it was not, and only very few people saw any. NWS Nashville said there two very nerdy scientific reasons to why the coverage of rain was so scattered (“either the forcing didn’t materialize or the cloud cover stymied instability to the point of stunting any growth. Or both,” in case you were wondering.) This is why embracing uncertainty is always so important. Weather loves curveballs, very few times are you going to get a lob right down the middle. The shrug emoji really says it all. We have a good idea of what is going to happen, but we have zero way of knowing exactly what will. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯/
Flood Watch Issued Until Late Monday, Wet Week Ahead
Overnight NWS Nashville issued a Flood Watch for both of our counties. Reason being is we are expected to get more rain on top of already saturated grounds. This may lead to rivers swelling up and as well as flash flooding in vulnerable spots. If you live near a river, keep an eye on it, you can always check the level of rivers here.
Flash Flood Concern Throughout Labor Day Weekend
Your morning walk or visit to the farmers market will be dry this morning, although it’s muggy with dewpoints in the low 70’s.
I’ll go ahead and start with the good news, and it’s just about the only good news in this – temperatures will be slightly below average for the next week or so. Got to focus on the positives, right?
Chance Of Rain Tonight, Concern For Heavy Rain Saturday + Sunday
Quite The Lovely Start To September, Won’t Last Too Long
Lower Humidity Today & Tomorrow
Rain, Humidity Drop, and Other Kinda Meh Things
Doubt much’ll happen today.
- Last night’s storm complex weakened into a few scattered, light showers this morning.
- A weak cold front arrives today (it’s in W TN and W KY right now) potentially kicking off more rain/lightning.
- Some models have rain for us today, others do not. HRRR is among those without rain/storms today:

- Our atmosphere remains a little bit juiced, capable of an afternoon rain/storm, but the balance of the model data says storms’ll happen east of us today. I’m cautiously optimistic we’ll all get to do our outdoor things this afternoon and tonight.

Quiet Weds, Thurs, and most of Friday while dewpoints drop from Uncomfortable to Comfortable.


Humidity returns to Uncomfortable Friday night through the weekend. Another swampy airmass supportive of random pop up showers and storms. Late afternoons and early evenings the most likely times. Wattery Szn runs through September?
I-24 “Special” Doesn’t Look So Special
Hoping An I-24 Special Falls Apart Monday Night
(yes please, we need to sleep)
This blog has no concerning SPC/WPC outlooks for flash flooding, tornado, hail, or widespread damaging straight line winds. How-Ever! There will probably be rain and lightningstorms?
Only a few storms around regionally this afternoon and early tonight. Models think storms will stay west of us today like they did yesterday (we will see about that). Few clouds will allow mid nineties temps. High humidity will send the heat index to 102°.
