Fairly dreary day today with showers hanging around through the majority of it. You will want to keep those umbrellas handy.

Bands of showers will continue to move through Middle TN at least through the afternoon hours. Most models show these showers tapering off as we reach the evening hours.

The latest hydrologic outlook from NWS Nashville says it all:
Rain will likely start after sunset tonight and continue through the day on Wednesday. Rain will finally come to an end, but only briefly, early Thursday morning.
Mostly cloudy skies expected overnight tonight with temps falling into the low-40s. Do not be surprised if you wake up to some patchy fog tomorrow morning.
Highs look to bounce through the mid-50s to lower-60s through the rest of the week. Wednesday night and Thursday look to be our driest period through it all.
Maybe a little fog early.
Rain should begin Tuesday night.
Southern Middle Tennessee should see the most rain, a real soaker, more than 2″.
It’s possible the models are a bit off and we will see that very heavy rain here.
This gross cold rain should end before or by noon, replaced by drizzly foggy funk beneath a blanket of clouds.
From NWS-Nashville:
The last recorded rainfall at Nashville airport was back on December 5th. While today`s rainfall isn`t going to go far to relieve us from this latest snap of dry weather, we will make up for it through the rest of this week.
A sprinkle is possible but no measurable rainfall is expected. A forgotten umbrella is no big deal.
Side note: GOES 16 is back as GOES EAST!
Preliminary satellite this morning shows a few passing clouds over Tennessee, but nothing to keep the sun from shining. Temperatures this afternoon will soar into the 50s, a nice warmup for mid December.
On the cooler side of things again today with highs anticipated to only reach the low-40s. Today’s highs will likely depend on the cloud coverage we currently have. Taking a look at the current satellite imagery, we have a blanket of clouds draped over much of Middle Tennessee.
Clouds will have a difficult time breaking up today, but we may get a few peeks of sunshine in the late afternoon. Our area is behind a cold front, so colder temperatures are filtering in. 20s are expected overnight into tomorrow morning, and we’ll only rebound into the mid-40s Friday afternoon.
A very bitterly cold morning with the majority of us seeing temps all the way into the mid to low 20s. Luckily, these temps will continue to climb through the day into the mid-50s for our high. Plenty of sunshine will be around to help warm our temps quickly.
GFS Model Loop Through Sunday
Temperatures will fall after a high in the 50s on Wednesday back into the 40s on Thursday and Friday afternoons. Winds will pick up on Wednesday afternoon with the passage of a dry cold front, gusting to 25 mph. Expect variable cloudiness and a decent amount of sunshine.
