Very nice weather this work week, at least up until Friday.
Temperatures will gradually warm up throughout the week, returning to the low to mid 80s. Humidity levels will be tame, so it’ll be a fairly tolerable low to mid 80s.
Well, those storms last night were something. Thanks for all the reports!
Today we are hot and dry. We’ll make a run at 90° – which if we do get there, it would be tied for the second earliest 90° day on record. Our average first day to hit that mark isn’t until May 27.
The Storm Prediction Center continues to have our two counties outlooked with a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds and/or hail within 25 miles for storms this evening. We are not included in any probabilities for tornadoes.
Elevated fire danger today thanks to low relative humidity values, gusty winds and our recent lack of rain. Outdoor burning is highly discouraged.
Our well above average temperatures will continue thru Saturday. Today and Friday will both have a run at the daily record high temperatures – 87° set in 1936 for today, 90° set in 1955 for Friday.
BNA reported a total of 0.02″ of rain yesterday, which was nice to keep the temperatures down a little, but won’t do much at all in terms of helping us with our worsening drought.
Today we’ll have plenty of sun to help our high temperatures surge into the mid to upper 80s. Our daily record high is 89° (set in 2017), so we’ll see if we can make a run at it.
Scattered light showers will continue thru this afternoon. Rainfall totals will be light, but it’s better than nothing. The clouds and rain will also help keep our temperatures down a good bit. Highs expected to get into the low 80s, but we might not make it there.
Really nice weekend weather lies ahead of us. Temperatures continue to be 10-15° above average. Very low chance at a quick shower today, majority of us will stay dry.
Temperatures will continue to slowly warm up as we get into next week, pushing 90° by the middle of next week. If that seems like it would be early for us to hit 90° – you’re right. Our average first 90° day isn’t until May 27. If we do hit the mark before April 17, it would be the second earliest on record (earliest is April 9, 2011).
Really no change in the forecast from Tuesday’s blog.
Very nice weather will be in store for us thru at least the beginning of next week. Temperatures will continue to warm into the 80s, and we’ll threaten daily record highs again by early to mid next week.
Normally there is at least something to write about in these blogs.
Today – and really most of this week – will be the rare exception.
We have no rain chances thru the end of this week, even creeping into early next week.
Not much has changed regarding the forecast for our showers/storms expected to move in later this afternoon and evening.
The only real change is that the Storm Prediction Center has introduced a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds within 25 miles. No tornado concerns today.
