Tonight: Per Usual, Most Rain Subsides
Lingering afternoon storms will begin to wane as we approach sunset. Temperatures should be a degree or two cooler in areas that do receive rain, so expect low 80s to upper 70s by late evening.
The radar relocated to the bottom of the page. I got sick of looking at it at the top.
The front that was making me rain-nervous for those along and S of 40 has finally dropped along 840, as seen here at 4:16 PM:
Tonight looks fine for outdoor activities. Any rain that develops will move south.
Drier air arrives, shoving dewpoints out of the 70°s and into the still-humid upper 60°s. Rain is not expected.
Dew points will return into the low 70°s. Gross.

Will carry chance probabilities of precipitation all week due to no one day/area seeing a better shot than the next.
Meaning, it may rain each day, but we don’t really know when. If you read this, maybe the odds are higher Tuesday. I can’t explain that.
Afternoon/Early evenings more likely to produce rain. Maybe too much rain:
While the threat for severe weather will be low, we will need to monitor the rainfall accumulations each day. The cumulative totals throughout the week could end up causing some very localized flooding issues.
For no good reason, I put the radar at the bottom of this page.
A front passed by last night, so today we get a north breeze. That breeze is really only happening north of I-40.
You’d think a north breeze would mean cooler, drier air, but when the weather balloon went up this morning, the dew point was SEVENTY FIVE.

Showers and storms are in the area and more continue to build to our north. We’ll have to watch those as they sink southward, keeping evening plans in mind. It’ll be safer than not to have an umbrella on hand if you plan to be outside.

Any showers that develop this afternoon are expected to exit by the early evening hours. Partly cloudy skies to follow tonight. Should be a fairly quiet night once the rain leaves.
Mother Nature ramps those temps back up to end our week. Temps will reach into the mid 90s with those dew point temps in the low 70s. Very hot day expected and it will likely feel flat out gross outside.
Current Radar
Still have a few scattered showers around the area, but the majority of the rain ended up pushing to our west.
Cannot rule out a shower tonight (like that lil feller in yellow), but the stormy stuff done gone west of us, yawl. pic.twitter.com/xoBLOrs5ps

Update: Showers and thunderstorms, some severe, are racing our direction this evening. Damaging winds will be the main threat, in addition to marginally-sized hail. Follow @NashSevereWx on Twitter for up-to-the-minute updates.
