Dry Today — Rain Chances Return Thursday — Rain Likely Friday & Through the Weekend
A line of noisy thunderstorms rolled through Middle Tennessee late last night. For the heavy sleepers this isn’t a problem, but for wx nerds and light sleepers it is. Justin Bruce from WKRN had an excellent point:

Overnight – Rain/Storms
Current Radar
A cold front will push showers and storms into our area while we sleep (sometime around 2 AM).
Our NWS points out “a few of these could become severe…mainly hailers.” In fact, there is a good bit of rotation in the atmosphere, and one of the cells has been tornado warned. A tornado here is unlikely, but will need to be monitored.
Current Radar
At 8:45 PM, storm activity was diminishing or otherwise moving east of us. The question is: are we done with the storms?
Probably not. Even though there is nothing on the radar to our W and NW, and only very scattered storms are expected over the region while we sleep (any storms we get may be severe, with hail the main threat), more rain/storms are expected Tuesday.
We’ve switched to running commentary mode, in purple. No during-the-storm coverage will appear here. This is forecast info. Follow us @NashSevereWx on Twitter, and watch local TV.
At 6:36 PM the Storm Prediction Center issued a MD for Middle Tennessee.
At 3:28 PM the SPC issued a MD for the TN Valley. With continued instability and stronger mid level flow severe storms are possible.
Isolated to scattered severe storms with hail are possible into this evening. If the is an increase in storm coverage and organization then a Severe Storm Watch will be issued.
At least one storm chaser is in town.
Don’t know what you’re thinking right now, but this is what I’m thinking:
You better be a pro to chase around Middle TN. Anyway…
