Mid 80s this afternoon, the comfortable humidity continues.
A few passing afternoon showers or storms may try to swing in from the north. The HRRR Model (below) shows this scattered activity.
This activity will be short-lived so no severe weather or flooding concerns
First…
Almost 90 this afternoon, with comfortable humidity.
A few showers or storms may pop up in NW Middle Tennessee, but those should stay away from us. Here’s the NAM3 model showing that activity N and NW of us:
That just seems to be the trend over the next week, and we are definitely not complaining about it!
Everyone loves Fridays, especially when beautiful weather is involved!
Dew points will remain in the low to mid 50s today, keeping the humidity levels down. There will also be a nice breeze today, a north-northeast wind blowing in at around 10 mph. Highs will be near 88°.
Thursday
It’s beautiful! Very few clouds overhead this morning.
This weather will continue throughout the day today (and tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day… but we’ll get to that). Highs will be in the mid-80’s, right around 84º. Here are the temperatures through midnight tonight:
The dewpoint was over 70 this morning.
That blue thing in west Tennessee on the below map is the cold front we’ve been tweeting about. It’s moving east and will replace our swampy “oppressive” airmass with a crisp, clean, breathable, “comfortable” airmass.
Today
Overcast skies are the current conditions we are seeing for now at 77 degrees.
As the day continues, the threat for severe weather continues as well.
The threats that are possible with this severe weather include…
Skies will be mostly cloudy today. Although stronger storms should remain to our southwest, we can’t rule out a stray storm ending up in your backyard. Because of Cristobal’s location to our west, wind speeds will increase. There will be a 10 to 15 mph southeast wind with possible 25 mph gusts. Highs will be near 91°.
If you liked the air-you-can-wear weather we felt Saturday, Sunday won’t disappoint. High today 93 with heat index around 95.
Here’s the heat index from the HRRR Model, suggesting mid 90s. Remember these numbers are in the shade.
Say hello to another hot day, and when I say hot, I mean temperatures that feel like they’re in the mid-upper 90s. Go west to get more miserable, there the heat index should approach 100.
The HRRR Model thinks our heat index will be mid 90s.
Severe thunderstorms in the MO Bootheel this morning should stay west of us this afternoon. The severe risk looks to be in the yellow and dark green areas above. We are east of all that. Expect some clouds this afternoon, but with all this heat and humidity, we can’t rule out an afternoon or evening pop-up thunderstorm.
