Posted on by Elan

Chilly day today, we did not make it to the 40° mark.

More Manageable Rain Thursday + Saturday

Rain Expected to be “Manageable” Throughout the Week

Posted on by Elan

We’ve received a little rain today, not much, but there’s more to come.

  • 2 – 3″ of rain is expected thru Saturday
  • majority of the rain will fall Wednesday
  • we are excluded from the Flood Watch (heaviest rain expected to stay to our south)
  • “Areas north of the Flood Watch could see nuisance flooding issues, but the total rainfall amounts over that area are expected to be manageable…” – NWS Nashville
  • no severe weather expected, some thunder possible

Timing:

We should remain dry thru the rest of today, maybe a scattered shower or two.

HRRR model (above) shows some rain arriving Wednesday morning, with the bulk of it coming Wednesday afternoon. Some more rain should swing around Thursday morning. Timestamp is in the upper left corner. read more

BNA got all the way up to 47° today, which feels like quite the accomplishment.

Ice remains. It was 5° at BNA overnight. Many local areas colder than that.

Temps above freezing – barely, briefly – this afternoon. Sunlight and light winds will erode but not eliminate ice sheets. Back down to 20° overnight and Monday morning. read more
