The Storm Prediction Center has issued a “mesoscale discussion” that borders Davidson and Williamson Counties. Here’s a snippet:
In short, our area will likely be placed under some sort of severe weather watch very soon. Winds are close, but not quite where they need to be for a robust tornado threat. However, surface heating and dewpoints continue to rise.
Current Radar
We’ve been covered by clouds this morning, which has prevented storm-making destabilization.
The winds, while strong, are largely unidirectional, which does not support large, tilted updrafts necessary for terrible weather.

Today’s Take-Away: Whether you will be at work this afternoon/evening, at an event, or at home, have a severe weather plan ready. Use multiple reliable sources to get any warnings that may be issued and stay up-to-date on any developments later today.

With our first round of rain, we could begin to see scattered rain showers as early 10 PM. Most of the heavy constant rainfall won’t begin until after midnight. We expect a wet morning commute:

We’ve already begun to see the clouds moving into our area ahead of the storms we will be seeing tonight into tomorrow. Even with the clouds, temps are expected to climb very quickly into the 70°s.

Only a few high to mid-level clouds will pass overhead tonight, allowing temperatures to drop into the mid 50s by 9PM.
Overnight lows will fall into the middle 40s under mostly clear skies.

Temps will drop tonight into the low 40°s-upper 30°s. Our dew point will stay around the mid-to-upper 30°s. With our dew point being so close to our temps, patchy frost and fog may develop through the night.

A few hailers in W Tennessee were ongoing late this afternoon, streaking NNE into Kentucky, where a Severe Thunderstorm Watch is currently in effect.
Although we are excluded from the Watch, some discrete storm cells were sitting to our SW, and should move into our area tonight in advance of an approaching cold front.

I hope you are at a place where Easter is really happy, and not some weird holiday that doesn’t quite make total sense or seem relevant to you.
Temps are expected to soar to 76° despite the clouds. A steady, warm, south breeze is ongoing, and will continue until a cold front sweeps it away tonight.
