We were the recipients of a couple of rounds of severe weather yesterday, which produced wind damage in several areas of both counties and torrential rain. Here’s a time-lapse from Oak Hill of the dinner time round of storms and the great sunset before the overnight round of storms developed.

Partly cloudy skies expected through most of the overnight period. We may get a few more showers to develop overnight, but not expecting anything severe. Temps expected to drop into the mid 70s.
*The storm prediction Center has issued a severe thunderstorm watch effective this Wednesday afternoon and evening from 1:20 PM until 9:00 PM CT.
*Primary threats include…
Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely.
Current Radar
Afternoon showers/storms should be moving east towards the Cumberland Plateau, giving us an opportunity to dry out. Temperatures will remain in the middle 80s, but the dew points (what helps make the air feel “thick/soupy”) will be in the lower 70s. Ew.
Current Radar
Our Severe Thunderstorm Watch will expire at 8 PM, but rain and storms are scattered to our southwest, moving this way, and may impact fireworks shows.
Our Go/No thoughts on tonight:
A few rainers and storms are off to our SW. Can't say whether fireworks will be stormed/rained on or not. Unlikely *all* shows will rainout.
Current Radar
Watch says "primary threats include scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 MPH, isolated large hail events to 1 inch diameter possible."

Today’s weather concern is potential for flash flooding, frequent lightning, and maybe severe weather (damaging straight-line winds).
Last night, a weak line of storms sank down from the KY/TN border, and dumped a lot of rain on Montgomery County (Clarksville), getting as far south as northern Davidson County. It quickly lifted north, and that’s where the rain will be for most of the morning.
Scattered showers and storms should develop before noon to our northwest, then move east. As the day progresses, showers and storms are expected to scatter throughout most of Middle Tennessee, including us. Exactly when/where they will scatter is unknown, but as you go through the day, your chance of rain will increase.
From NWS-Nashville:
The bulk of rainfall and severe wx potential will be located just north of TN, but there will be enough dynamic support, along with deep moisture and instability, to bring a few strong to severe storms to the Mid State.
Current Radar
A Tornado Watch remains effective to our north in Kentucky until 10 PM:
We are not included in the Tornado Watch area, but the Storm Prediction Center has outlooked Hendersonville and extreme northern Davidson County in its 2% probability of seeing a tornado within 25 miles tonight:
