Gorgeous weather for Christmas Eve, temperatures have crept up into the mid to upper 60s.
Clouds will increase as we go throughout the day, hinting at the incoming rain.
Not only will rain pick up overnight, but so will the wind.
Because it’s been raining, Margo.
On/off rain has been moving thru throughout the day, and chances will continue thru this evening. You can check the radar anytime here: Radar – Nashville Severe Weather
A year ago today, I wrote the blog about temperatures expected to get around 0°, wind chills -20° to -30°, with a Winter Storm Warning along with it. NWS Nashville put together a page about this event, you can click here if you’d like to read.
The sun set at 4:36pm today, that’s quite sad. Thankfully, the sun will set later in the day from now on.
Winter will officially begin at 9:27pm, when the Winter Solstice occurs. However, based on the forecast, it sure doesn’t feel that way.
The low 50s today have felt a lot better than the 30s and 40s we’ve been dealing with. We’ll continue to warm each day this week, even making to the mid 60s by Christmas Eve.
That is quite mild for this time of year, although not unheard of.
Very chilly start to the day, and we’ll have a few more of those this week. Wednesday – Friday mornings temps will be around/below freezing.
We didn’t make it pass the low 40s today, thankfully the rest of the week temps will get into the 50s, even the 60s by late week.
Temps are dropping thanks to a fierce NW wind gusting at about 25-35mph.
Temps around sunrise Tuesday morning will be in the low 20s, with wind chills in the teens.
High temperatures will gradually rise throughout the week, getting into the low 60s by the weekend.
Rumors of sNOw have been flying around; however, our time for accumulating snowfall is not in the forecast.
Air aloft will be cold enough to support some snow falling from the sky, but our surface temperatures will be too warm for any of it to stick. You may see a few snowflakes, but they’d melt on contact with the ground.
On and off light rain is moving into the area.
HRRR (above) shows the rain ending early Sunday morning. We should be dry for your drive to church, brunch, Titans game.
Rainfall totals look like not an awful lot, only 0.25″ – 0.5″.
Another beautiful December day. High temps once again reached the low 60s, several degrees above norm.
Seems like most weekends we end up with some rain chances. Thankfully this weekend we don’t have to deal with any storms, just rain.
