Last night’s storm reports weren’t from storms but from the Wind Advisory. “Non thunderstorm-winds,” they call it.
Rain reached 2″+ in spots yesterday. Creeks and streams rose quickly and fell not as quickly. A few rivers reached pre-flood “action stage.” For more on that, this.
The rain is over. Storms have moved on to our east, allowing for our the tornado watch including Davidson and Williamson counties to be cancelled. We remain under a wind advisory until 9PM.
Sustained winds of 15 to 20 mph, gusting up to 30 mph, are expected for another hour or so, becoming calm by midnight.
Severe weather requires the right ingredients coming together at the right time. Severe weather ingredients may come together this afternoon and/or early tonight.
Two waves of storms, both with severe potential.

The Storm Prediction Center has assigned a “2 out of 5” risk category for most of us on Saturday. Areas W of 65 has been in an Enhanced or “3 out of 5” risk category.
Today we’ll be mostly cloudy, cool, and dry through the early evening hours. Afternoon high will be around 50° here in Nashville.
Rain chances will increase after sunset as our next big rainmaker arrives. Scattered drizzles could begin around 9PM tonight, becoming rain by midnight.
We are going to be sitting 18º below our average high of 58º today.
Expect an afternoon high of around 40º with a west wind, 5-10 mph. Clear skies will give way to a partly cloudy night across WIlliamson and Davidson Counties. An overnight low of 24º is expected. At least it’s not in the teens!
Cold continues. Wind chills in the low 20°s around sundown then upper teens tonight.
Even colder tomorrow morning. Wake up low 19°, wind chill 13°.
I mean, yeah, technically it’s still winter.
Wednesday’s high is 39° – a meaningful improvement – then Thursday morning another ice boxer 24° (wind chill 21°), but 52° Thursday afternoon.
March 1 may have been the start of meteorological Spring however, Old Man Winter had something to say about that. All of the rain yesterday left cold air in its wake. Temperatures this afternoon are going to struggle to make it to and above freezing.
Radar images coming out of Georgia this afternoon are upsetting. Numerous tornado debris signatures, obvious tornadoes, some tearing through towns, from what’s fair to say they’re enduring: a tornado outbreak.
