So far so good through the day as those showers have stayed out of our area. We still have that very small chance of a shower trying to develop, but it doesn’t look too promising as the day progresses.
Current Radar
Update: Showers are quickly pushing east towards middle Tennessee this afternoon. These will continue their trek, while also diminishing as we approach dark. We will level off in the upper 70s by mid-evening and remain dry for the rest of the night. South-southeast winds will usher in more moisture overnight, along with warmer air, setting the stage for a warm/hot Wednesday.

The rest of the afternoon into the evening will remain pleasant for the Nashville area. Current satellite imagery shows a few clouds around the region, with the majority still sticking to our South.
It showed up today, sweeping away the humid air that’s been hanging around for weeks.
Water vapor imagery shows humid air in white (departing), dry air in black (arriving):
If you pay close attention to the above, you’ll see the humid air sink south of the TN/MS border, then surge back north of it. Although that’s disconcerting, we are confident our drying out trend will continue tonight, tomorrow, and Tuesday.
Several weeks we’ve been waiting for this. Waiting for an honest cold front, strong enough to scour away the rain and the humidity.
The cold front gets here today.
This morning’s heavy rain was pre-frontal, meaning, it’s the rain before the cold front comes through.

Afternoon storms are expected to continue through the late evening hours.
HRRR-p model thinks we'll see another wave of rain (maybe even storms) around 9-10 PM. Wet night likely, campers. pic.twitter.com/MsJsU9Y4wg

With the loss of daytime heating, rain chances will go down cooperatively. As long as we stay dry, tonight will be a beautiful night with temperatures in the upper 70s to low 80s.
Current Radar
Our dreary day will continue as we enter the afternoon and evening period for Middle TN. Have some showers and thunderstorms scattered across the region currently with more to our North, West and South. Have had a few showers developing in our area this afternoon so we will keep an eye on those as we head into the evening hours.
Current Radar
So far today model guidance has not been much of any help at all. Starting to see some scattered showers around the Middle TN region, but so far not a whole lot has developed for Davidson and Williamson Counties.

Update: If you’re headed out to the Nashville Sounds ballgame, pack a poncho just in case. Rain chances are expected to be higher for areas northwest of us tonight, but a few straggling showers cannot be counted out.
