We needed the rain, but the timing is pretty bad. It couldn’t have waited until the work-week?

Embrace uncertainty and read below.

Dewpoints yesterday skyrocketed. You could almost drown by breathing in the air – well not really, but definitely felt like it.

Editor’s Note: many have stuff going on at specific times beginning tonight thru the weekend. A show. Cookout. Baseball game. Walking outside to tell your neighbor’s dog to shut up. Golf tournament. Also I heard there is a big fest downtown. read more

A Couple Showers This Afternoon?

Meh.

Our afternoon today is looking fairly warm and dry, despite some showers in west Tennessee marching east. The HRRR model is showing a few of these between 2 PM and 4 PM today:

However, our air is still pretty dry and no one really thinks that rain will get here. NWS-Nashville says chances are slight we’ll get a light shower. Unlikely to rain anything out. read more

Humidity increases – although still pretty comfy – but the high climbs to 90°.

BEST NEWS

Less humidity Friday. High only 83°!

TONIGHT’S BOURBON LOW

Today and tonight, low pressure will be spinning over the Bourbon trail.

Because winds spin counterclockwise around a low, showers developed by the low should rotate into Middle Tennessee, including us (Nashville and Will Co) later this afternoon or tonight. read more

Late morning rain is coming in now for those along and north of I-40. We are tweeting about that.

Later today there is a chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms. NWS-Nashville mentions the possibility for a few strong storms this afternoon: read more

Wednesday

Not too much to say here except hot and sunny:

The HRRR model shows rain staying to our north.

Note these storms are passing pretty close to us. We still think they’ll miss us but this will need to be watched in case the data is a bit off and we get surprised. read more
