What’s Up With This Rain?

The rain showed up this morning, right on time.
When will it end? The HRRR model thinks the rain blob will expand west, before finally pulling east and shutting off the spigot around dark:

High pressure centered in NC in the morning is expected to spin rain N, up I-65°, for the morning rush hour. HRRR model is particularly wet:

It will be another wet day for us.
Showers should be moving through in the morning and afternoon.

If the HRRR is right, the bulk of the rain should be moving through from 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM.

Garden-variety summertime storms have been firing all morning to our south and southwest, getting mostly western Williamson County. These have been very slow moving, but they are drifting west and away from us.

We had a couple of no-quite-severe storms, including small hail in N Davidson Co and this wet microburst:

Humidity is back!

This summer, rain has usually come from I-24 in Kentucky, moving SE towards us.
Today, that pattern reverses.
As I write this, a few renegade rain showers are working their way NW from the Chattanooga area.The HRRR model – although possibly exaggerating this feature – shows rain taking I-24 and advancing closer through all day:

Another really nice evening is ahead for tonight, with lower humidity and mostly clear skies.

Lows will bottom out in the mid 60°s, but humidity will begin to rise a bit during the overnight hours.

Winds will start to relax by this evening, as temperatures begin to fall to the low 80°s.

Expect clear skies and lows in the low 60°s overnight.
Tomorrow will be another very nice day, with mostly sunny skies and high temperatures staying in the 80°s.
