Note: this forecast is for Davidson and Williamson Counties only. It is not written for all of Middle Tennessee. This forecast would be much different if our audience was in southern or eastern Middle Tennessee.
This forecast may change tomorrow as uncertainties clear up. Stay connected. Have multiple reliable ways to get warnings.
We think it’ll rain in the morning. Starting before sunrise, off and on through the morning. Just rain, not severe weather.
It’s going to rain hard on Easter, but probably not raining all day. The flash flood threat is mostly for those to our SE, but some models deliver us heavy rain so be alert.
Severe weather? I’m glad you asked.
Middle Tennessee is under an enhanced risk of severe storms on Sunday, mainly in the late afternoon and evening. Damaging straight line winds, large hail, and isolated tornadoes are all possible.

I’m going to trust you. If you’re going to skim this, don’t read it at all because you’ll miss important details.
Two really nice spring days today and Saturday. Cold Saturday morning though.
We’ll warm up considerably on Saturday with a slight chance of showers before midnight.
As always, but especially Sunday . . .
Thursday: Sunny, high of 65°, breezy.
Friday: Down to 38° early AM. Then copy and paste the rest of Thursday, but a high of 59°.
Saturday: Cold start to the morning with highs in the mid to upper-30s. Some could possibly wake up to some patchy frost if it gets cold enough. Sunny, high of 68°.
Tonight’s storm used just about all the storm fuel, leaving nothing behind to power a second line coming in later. We think the second line will be weak. Maybe some lightning, but mostly just rain. Davidson County’s Tornado Watch has been cancelled. Will Co’s Tornado Watch will probably be cancelled before 2 AM.
The Storm Prediction Center has issued a Tornado Watch for Davidson and Williamson Counties until 2 AM.
The Watch reflects concern a line of storms, ETA between 11 PM and 2 AM, will produce tornadoes. Most models are trending toward a midnight to 1 AM ETA, but you should remain alert for warnings and ETA changes until this line passes. Storms may arrive early. Storms will form a line and come in from the northwest.
Our severe weather risk has been upgraded and could very well be upgraded again later today by the Storm Prediction Center. We are looking at a damaging wind and large hail event for tonight through the early morning hours. A tornado is less likely, but possible.
We’ve got a few spotty showers making their way across Middle Tennessee this morning and into the afternoon. Some of us may see some wet pavement in a few spots, but barely registering in any rain buckets.
