Our next weather system will approach Wednesday. It’ll be a cold front that’ll knock our temps back down for Thursday, but nothing extreme. Not even expecting precip with this cold front.
However, you will notice south winds pick up ahead of this front. Gusts to 30 mph possible tonight and into Wednesday. Strap down your outdoor decorations!
Endure today, and things will get better tomorrow. That applies to more than today’s weather, btw.
We were hoping for a high in the low 50s today, but these clouds are really really stubborn…and keeping us squarely in the mid 40s.
A cold front arrives tonight, bringing our next rain chances. Amounts will generally be a tenth of an inch or less. HRRR from 8 pm tonight – 8 am Monday.
While Winter doesn’t officially start until the 21st, we’re right in the middle of it meteorologically. I had my driveway concreted the other day, and we’re currently accessing our house by driving through this and through a field….so I’m as ready as anyone for some sun and warmer temps. If you see a mud-covered pickup truck with a NashSevere sticker driving around, wave. I’ll wave back.
Blerg conditions are met when temperatures are below 40 degrees, no snow, no sun. Officially, the forecast high temp is 41 at BNA. I dunno that we’ll get there. Blerg.
Temps hit 50 degrees for Saturday and Sunday ahead of our next system. 🎉
Light precipitation begins late this afternoon, continues until after midnight. We expect the margins to be razor thin with this event as to exactly which type of precip occurs where you are. Generally speaking, the chances for all rain and no impacts are highest in S Williamson Co, and the chances for a mostly sleet/snow mixture with temps reaching 32° or below are highest in N Davidson. A mix of sleet, snow and rain will likely exist in between and may go back and forth multiple times. Could even see some freezing rain mix in at times, especially in the higher elevations of W Williamson Co.
We were on Blerg Watch today, but since the sun peeked thru, we never reached the criteria. This is probably a good thing; Blergs are no fun.
The main talk for this blog will be our chances of some wintry precip Thursday night/Friday morning. This also looks to be a challenging forecast.
A really gross day today. Temperatures have actually dropped throughout the day; our high temperature of 38° occurred right around midnight. We were very close to achieving Blerg status today.
Blerg:
We did have some rain last night in the early morning hours and even some flurries being squeezed out today – so not officially a Blerg.
Not much has changed regarding our very low chances of some wintry precipitation tonight.
Very little to no impacts are expected.
This is our classic cold air chasing precipitation as it exists the area – the scenario that almost never works out for snow lovers. This is very likely one of those that leave snow lovers disappointed.
Some mist continues to stick around for the morning hours but should clear out here sooner than later. High temps will only reach ~40°. Prepare to bundle up if you are heading out to the Titans game, any other outdoor plans.
