Some relief from the drought is coming our way. We will see on and off chances for showers and scattered thunderstorms through the Memorial Day Weekend. There will be dry times, but each day will bring a high chance for some rainfall. 2 to 3 inches of rainfall expected.
There are low rain and storm chances tonight and early Friday, but the main event is going to be a cold front that sweeps across Middle Tennessee Saturday afternoon and evening. This is going to be the main period for active weather. Fortunately, the severe weather risk is low.
Begin the day with a friendly voice. It's going to be a terrific Tuesday temperatures not deviating from the norm. So it's not a far cry from the weather we thought we'd inherit this time of year. (And high pressure means ceiling unlimited for you aviators out there.)
Let's talk today's severe threat. Some things have changed, but most have stayed the same.
The entirety of Middle Tennessee is still in a slight risk (level 2 out of 5) for severe weather today. Main hazards are still...
