As we move into the second week of July, we continue with our average summertime weather. Hot, humid, somewhat miserable outside, with a chance of pop-up storms during the afternoon.
Our high should top out at around 92°F today, with dew points in the upper 60°s. Heat index in the upper 90°s, perhaps scratching triple digit territory.
Rain currently southwest, south, and southeast so far, but we could also see some showers today.
HRRR model predicts afternoon and evening scattered showers:
Some scattered storms later Sunday afternoon will be capable of heavy rain and strong winds, so have a backup plan in case you’re spending the day outside and find yourself under one of these pop-ups.
If you’ve been around Middle Tennessee the past few days, you probably have a good idea of what today is going to look like. We’ll start off partly sunny through early afternoon, temperatures quickly rising to a high of 89°. Grab the hairspray for your plans as well, dewpoint values will be in the mid 70s so it’s sure to be a very sticky one outside.
Happy Friday! Temperatures this afternoon will reach 88° for the high. Unfortunately, we have some pop-up storms in store for us this afternoon to end off our work week. The HRRR model shows these showers popping up between 12pm-2pm today and finally clearing out around midnight:
Unfortunately, we are looking at more possible showers and storms today.
Here’s the HRRR model:
The NAM3 shows much less development. Don’t count on this. We can hope for the NAM3, but to be on the safe side, I’d prepare for the HRRR today.
Today we can expect mostly cloudy skies and a high of 92°, though heat index will make it feel like 98°.
The HRRR model shows scattered showers and storms beginning later this afternoon around 2pm:
It looks like summer continues this week. The main story is going to be this heat and humidity.
As of 8:14 AM, it is 73°F with a dew point of 68°F. Ugh.
It isn’t getting much better than this.
The high today is going to reach 94°F. Dew points hanging out in the low 70°s. Heat index values could approach the low 100°s today. Take extra precautions if you are going to be out for an extended period of time today. Keep water close, and shade even closer – if possible.
The HRRR shows some spotty showers beginning this afternoon (2 or 3pm):
Here’s the NAM3 model:
You may see a shower or you may not. If you do, it’ll be short lived and not a rainout.
We should have some clearing for the next few days.
We can’t completely rule out any pop-up showers. Some of you may get wet. But we aren’t concerned with any rain-outs or outdoor plan ruiners.
Hot and humid with highs in the lower 90s and dew points in the upper 60s and lower 70s. This will allow for heat indexes to climb into the mid and upper 90s.
A few isolated showers and thunderstorms can’t be ruled out Friday through Sunday due to the instability in the atmosphere from the heat and humidity, but we do not expect widespread storms like we saw the past couple of days. The latest run of the NAM3 model shows just a few pop up storms Friday through Sunday:
