Current Radar
THIS EVENING – 80° by 7 PM
We’ll continue to keep a few clouds around tonight, as temperatures fall to the low 80°s.
So, not an overly cool evening by any means, but dew points will still be ‘ok.’

Looking Good Until Friday
Current Radar
Through Thursday: Woooo Streaking!
Low 80°s, no rain, Monday through Thursday.
The reason: a ridge is bossing our weather.
Rain Friday?
A surface low pressure system will spin across the Great Lakes, dragging a cold front behind it. This low will be centered waaaay too far north to cause us any strong/severe weather problems. There’s a chance of maybe some thunder, but the main impact will be some rain.
Streaking!

Monday – Thursday: Woooo Streaking!
Low 80°s, no rain, Monday through Thursday. The opposite of last Thursday through Saturday’s frustrating upper level low.

The men and women at NWS-Nashville are forecasting professionals with hundreds of years of experience. Here’s how NWS-Nashville started off the morning forecast discussion:
Today – Clearing Out? Probably – High 76°

Saturday – Watching Rain Approach from the East
Refresh your browser to update the radar, above. As you can see, rain is coming Crazy Ivan style, east to west.
The rain reason is the upper level low, which has been sitting to our S/SE since Thursday:
Chilly and Miserable and Wet (But Maybe Not Wet)

Tonight – Radar Watching
See above. It appears the heavier/steadier rain will turn to lighter/off-and-on rain tonight.
The HRRR model shows decreasing showers tonight and overnight:
Saturday – Rainout Alert? Not So Fast – High 61°
The last frame of the HRRR (above) shows more rain coming from E Tennessee at 6 AM. If that trend continues (I’ll update the HRRR model on Twitter @NashSevereWx later tonight), it’ll completely wash away all Saturday outdoor activities.
October? More like Raintober for this Weekend.
So Much Weather Stuff. Also, October!
Current Radar
Heavy rain and flooding issues near southern Williamson County. Take it easy out there.
Showers and even some storms will continue as we progress into the evening hours:
Umbrella/rain jacket a good idea for evening plans. Outdoor events look shaky.
Elsewhere in the realm of our weather…it will continue to be cloudy this evening. And cooler. AND drier (in terms of humidity).
