We’ll finally return above freezing today after ~36 hours of below freezing temps. High temp of around 40° certainly isn’t warm, but it’s improvement.
We’ll gradually warm up over the next several days, even making it all the way to 60° for a high by Thursday, leaving the near 0° wind chills in the past.
If you haven’t been outside today – it’s cold. Don’t let the sun fool you. Wind chill values (aka “feels like” temps) will be near the single digits all day. If you need to go outside today to do anything, be sure to have several layers on, hypothermia can set in quickly with this kind of cold.
If you are trying to decide about getting something done outside either today or Sunday – I could not recommend today more.
That’s not entirely because today will be super nice, but because Sunday will be brutally cold.
High temps in the mid 50s today will be slightly above our average high of 50°. Lots of sun.
Highs will be around 50° on Saturday. Out of the two weekend days, this will be the day to get stuff done outside if you need to.
Today will be chilly with highs only reaching the mid 40s – which will be nice compared to what we deal with Sunday.
Friday will be the “warm” day out of the next 7, with highs in the upper 50s.
Our next weather system will approach Wednesday. It’ll be a cold front that’ll knock our temps back down for Thursday, but nothing extreme. Not even expecting precip with this cold front.
However, you will notice south winds pick up ahead of this front. Gusts to 30 mph possible tonight and into Wednesday. Strap down your outdoor decorations!
Endure today, and things will get better tomorrow. That applies to more than today’s weather, btw.
We were hoping for a high in the low 50s today, but these clouds are really really stubborn…and keeping us squarely in the mid 40s.
A cold front arrives tonight, bringing our next rain chances. Amounts will generally be a tenth of an inch or less. HRRR from 8 pm tonight – 8 am Monday.
While Winter doesn’t officially start until the 21st, we’re right in the middle of it meteorologically. I had my driveway concreted the other day, and we’re currently accessing our house by driving through this and through a field….so I’m as ready as anyone for some sun and warmer temps. If you see a mud-covered pickup truck with a NashSevere sticker driving around, wave. I’ll wave back.
