Another Glorious Sunday
Breezy, low/no humidity, high 87°, sunny. Winds should top out by mid afternoon around 10 MPH. Probably not enough to support a kite.
But first, another cool morning! 63°!!!!

Totally agree.
High 89°.
Dewpoints will climb out of the 50°s and settle into the low 60°s.
Another kinda-cool morning, 66°, then up to 90° by mid-afternoon.
Rising humidity, with dewpoints approaching 65°.
No rain is expected through Tuesday.
Goodbye cool mornings.
The dewpoint will creep into the upper 60°s (“uncomfortable” range), and with that comes maybe an afternoon/early evening pop-up shower or storm. Wednesday is outside the range of the short-range models, leaving us with little/no additional information about whether it will rain on us (Davidson and/or Williamson Counties) or other parts of Middle Tennessee. No severe weather is expected.
What’s a shortwave?
Yes, that. Also this:
Also known as Shortwave Trough; a disturbance in the mid or upper part of the atmosphere which induces upward motion ahead of it. If other conditions are favorable, the upward motion can contribute to thunderstorm development ahead of a shortwave.
GFS says, and we agree, no rain until (maybe) Wednesday.
GFS Loop through Tuesday
Expect temps to climb slowly into the 90s by Tuesday. Humidity will also return at that time.
Rain chances ramp up during the mid-afternoon on Wednesday and continue through at least Friday.
The cold front creating today’s showers continues to push south, leaving us with somewhat cooler temps for now. Our temps and dew point temps will continue to drop this evening and into tomorrow morning before we feel the full on relief. It’s coming folks.
Thursday daytime appears to be pretty similar to the past few days with highs in the 90s and dew point temps in the 70s. Heat index values will once again be in the 100° to 105° range, so it will be another hot day. The majority of the day will consist of sunny skies.
More afternoon “popcorn” storms are possible on Tuesday as the very weak cold front sitting to our north today sags southward. Severe weather is not expected.
Temperatures each day through Friday, thanks to abundant sunshine, should reach the lower 90s, too.
