GOES East, Morning Loop

High pressure will stick around with us today and for part of tomorrow, before quickly being shunted to the east coast. Temperatures again on Tuesday are expected to be in the 60s, but pushing 70 degrees with ample surface heating.

Focusing on Severe Weather Potential for Tonight: Flooding, Damaging Winds, & an Isolated Tornado all Possible
Flood Watch Continues Through Tomorrow Morning
NWS Nashville: A strong low pressure system will sweep through the mid state Saturday night, with additional heavy rainfall expected. Additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches are forecast during the next 24 hours. This will fall on ground that is largely saturated, and will drain into streams and rivers that are already running high from previous heavy rainfall. Therefore, localized flash flooding and river flooding are possible during and after this next heavy rain event.
Severe Weather Possible Saturday Night, Some Dry Days Next Week
Flood Watch In Effect through Saturday Night
NWS Nashville: A Flood Watch continues to be in effect for portions of Middle TN through Saturday night. While most will see a lull in the rain Friday, those in the watch will not. Additional rainfall is expected Saturday, as well. Both localized Flash Flooding and river flooding will be possible by Saturday night. Those who experienced flooding this past week and are in this Flood Watch need to pay special attention to rainfall accumulations as flooding is expected to return to those locations.
