Mainly Dry Today, Harvey’s Remnants Moving Our Direction
Rain Stays North Today, Isolated Shower May Sneak In
Latest HRRR Model Loop
A weak upper level impulse will slide further south today, sparking showers and an isolated storm in Kentucky and along the KY/TN border. One or two of these may meander far enough south into Davidson County, but the chances are low. Temperatures will stay in the mid 80s for afternoon highs. Otherwise, expect some cloud cover around…as already evidenced by GOES this morning (also, note the fog around Nashville):
Dissipating Showers Tonight, Second Half of the Week Looks Wet
Showers Dissipating Tonight, Tomorrow will be Cloudy with Some Showers Possible
Majority of the rainfall has moved out over the course of this afternoon. We do have a few lingering showers around the area, but nothing that an umbrella won’t fix. For those with plans to head out to the Nashville Sounds game tonight, rain should clear by then. We may see a stray shower but nothing to worry about.
Next Week Depends on Harvey
Will Harvey Ruin Labor Day Weekend? Probably Not (but worth discussing)
Sunday, humidity will rise a bit (not too bad). Mid-level moisture blowing off the top of Harvey (centered now in Victoria, Texas) may sneak in some clouds and shower, but no model really thinks it’ll rain enough to bother outdoor plans. It probably won’t rain at all, but don’t be surprised if we get a little.
Spectacular Late-August Weekend, Unsettled Next Week
Gorgeous Weather For the Weekend
Canada is good for bacon, hockey, and lots of other things…including high pressure!
West-northwesterly flow, thanks to the Canadian high, will continue to filter in through the remainder of this weekend. Dry conditions will prevail, with sunshine bumping afternoon temperatures Sunday into the upper 80s. Overnight lows will be a bit cool, hovering in the low to mid 60s.
