As I write this update, it’s 77°, but our dewpoint is a very-dry 33°. Dewpoints that low aren’t going to fuel any bad storms.
But, storms currently in Missouri will surf a thin wave of higher dewpoints arriving in Middle Tennessee late tonight.
Winds will become northwesterly and a bit gusty at times tonight into Wednesday.
Highs will still stay well above normal into the end of the week as southerly winds return. A storm system will begin to influence the area late Thursday into the weekend. Here’s the latest thinking from NWS Nashville:
Light showers are expected through the overnight hours into Monday morning. The HRRR model predicts light rain Monday morning:
Showers and gusty winds (up to 30 mph) on Monday will be a good indicator of warm south winds, ahead of our next cold front.
It is back! The good news about all these temperature swings is that you get to utilize your entire wardrobe.
Overnight will still be quite chilly, bottoming out in the 30s.
Sunday, clouds will be on the increase with highs in the middle 60s. Winds could gust up to 20mph from the south.
Our somewhat chilly day will continue on with cool temperatures tonight and tomorrow morning (temps may even dip into the upper 20s during the early AM hours).
It looks like a tornado started in Williamson County in the Monticello subdivision, then moved through Cool Springs, into Brentwood and north of Nolensville/Cane Ridge, then Antioch and Percy Priest Lake. It’s not yet clear whether NWS will say it was two tornadoes from the same storm, or one long tornado. It’ll be rated at least EF-1. This is all preliminary and subject to revision.
