Today:
It may start as soon as late tonight: a few scattered showers.
The majority of the rain will move through Friday.
TIMING
The NAM3 model shows the heaviest rain passing through in the afternoon, and fizzling out Friday night.
We have some fall weather on tap until the next disturbance moves NE into our area Thursday late. Temps in the mid 50s both today and tomorrow. Really great days for outdoor activities. But it doesn’t last…
After the soaking we’ve had over the past few days, we have a chance to dry out beginning today. Plenty of sunshine and a high temp of 47°. Not very warm, but the sun will help. Temps continue to climb over the next few days.
Our friends off to our East are seeing some snow accumulation this morning. Some areas will get a measly dusting while others in the Plateau could get up to 2″.
For us though, we’re not going to see any of that. We’ll have to wait a little longer.
Winds 28 MPH today, high 53°, perfect for kite enthusiasts.
Clouds increase this afternoon. A light shower is possible late this afternoon/early tonight.
Tonight temps drop into the 40°s with wind chills in the 30°s.
Step out the front door like a ghost into a fog where no one notices the contrast between rain and birds.
And in between the moon and you, the angels get a better view of the crumbling difference between models wrong and right.
PREPARE FOR A LITTLE BIT OF DRIZZLE TODAY AND TONIGHT
Layered clouds will keep us near 51° for the high this afternoon.
Drizzle is moving through this afternoon mostly south of I-40, unlikely to create measurable rainfall. Drizzle or a brief light rain shower is possible anywhere in Nashville or Will Co tonight.
PREPARE FOR LIGHT RAIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON/TONIGHT
Timing: mid/late afternoon into the evening.
Confidence is not great. Not totally sure it’ll make it to us but it probably will. Uncertainty courtesy of the Dry Air Monster who gotta eat.
PREPARE FOR WIND
Sustained wind 15 – 25 mph with gusts up to 40 mph this morning.
Should last until noon or so, with gusts relaxing this afternoon and tonight.
Worst of the wind is gone, so confidence you’ll get a strong wind gust is low. Kite flying is a good idea this afternoon, you still may squeeze out a decent amount of wind.
The main focus today will be the severe threat off to our west.
The concern for us will be any lingering storms as they move toward us. Wind and heavy rains are what we expect for us here in Middle TN.
