A dry – but hot 4th of July weekend lies ahead. I suppose the hot temps will be the trade-off for it being dry, which I will gladly accept.

High temps will reach into the mid 90s, with heat index values near 100° as you celebrate. I recommend being near a body of water, perhaps with a popsicle. read more

While it will still be hot the rest of this week, with temperatures slowly climbing – we won’t have any rain chances to worry about crashing any of our outdoor plans.

High temperatures will be in the 90s for at least the next 7 days, peaking in the mid 90s this weekend. Dewpoints won’t be as high as we saw them last week, but still enough to bring the heat index values closer to 100°. read more

Besides maybe a quick shower or two this evening – we are finally done with rain chances for a while. Well deserved.

Wednesday thru at least Saturday appear dry. Dewpoint will be slightly lower Wednesday and Thursday before creeping back up this weekend – and temperatures will follow the same trend. read more

Tuesday looks to be our last day with Wattery chances for a while.

Chances will pick up late morning and continue thru the evening. Most of the activity looks to be focused E of 65, similar to today – but still, anyone could see a shower or storm. read more

We continue our unsettled pattern thru Tuesday.

I know I sound like a broken record, but scattered showers and storms will be possible daily, mostly confined to the afternoon and evening. Some will see some heavy rain, while others see none. read more

Our 12z morning sounding from BNA today looks fairly similar to yesterday’s. No coincidence – much of the same can be expected. Our atmosphere will look fairly similar each day thru Tuesday. read more

We have one more day of our Heat Advisory, which expires at 7p today. Once again, heat index values up to 105° will be possible this afternoon and evening.

Although it will still be hot this weekend and next week, it just won’t be as hot. It’s still summer, so continue to take it easy if you must be outside for long periods of time. High temperatures continue to be in the low 90s. read more

Outflow boundary that moved thru this morning did a couple of things for us.

1. A good bit of Williamson Co. saw heavy rain, a few folks in Davidson. Watch out for any water on roads.
2. The outflow boundary cooled things off for everyone, BNA gusted to 36 mph and temps went from 84° to 77°
3. I think it’s unlikely we hit our projected high temp of 96°, although it will still get hot.
4. We still could see an afternoon shower or storm, but chances are still relatively low. But still, any storm could contain heavy rain, lightning and some gusty winds.

The Heat Advisory continues thru 7p Friday. Heat index values could still reach up to 107° today and Friday.

Continue to take it easy if you must be outside for long periods of time. Stay hydrated, take frequent breaks, and look before you lock. read more

Unfortunately, I could copy and paste the blog from yesterday for today. I won’t – but the heat remains brutal.

Today and Thursday will likely be the hottest days of the week.

Heat index values (aka “feels like” temps) will again peak near 110° this afternoon. read more

At 9a, BNA reported a temperature of 88°. It could be worse, at the same time, Logan International Airport in Boston was reporting 93° as they make their way up to 102°.

Our brutal heat will continue today – as well as through the end of the week. We are still under a Heat Advisory until 7p Friday. read more
