June is back, a hard adjustment after last week. That’s weather for you.
Dew points (humidity) are rising, and so are rain chances.
Today is only the beginning of an active weather week.
Our high should reach around 88°F by mid afternoon. Meanwhile, clouds should increase, swelling and growing into the afternoon. With it, the chance for rain.
After a chilly night last night with some record lows, we’re going to have a beautiful afternoon! Sunny skies will be the story today, with a few thin patches of cirrus clouds overhead. Temperatures will climb to 81° this afternoon, along with much lower dewpoints and setting us up with a perfect afternoon!
Last week, I spent several days at various places on the Pacific coast. The weather was fantastic. Today in Nashville is awfully close to what you find out west this time of year. If you took the day off, are at camp this week, or even mowing the grass, good move. This is about as good as it gets in mid-June.
A chance for showers and a few isolated storms exists as an upper level system swings through the region. It seems like the best chances will be just to our east but we can’t rule out a few stray showers that could pop up mainly between 2 and 8 PM. The National Weather Service echoes this:
We’ve got a picture perfect afternoon ahead of us today! Temperatures are going to be several degrees below normal, only reaching 72° for the high. Humidity is going to be a lot lower as well. Light and pleasant winds out of the North will set us up with a quiet, and beautiful Tuesday!
