REST OF THE WEEK:

Finally there is some sunshine! We will have a mix of clouds and sun this afternoon. Expect highs in the upper 70s and low 80s.

A storm or two may develop over our far northwest counties (near Murray and Cadiz, KY) this evening. One or two strong gusts of wind are possible there. As these storms move further east, they should dissipate. The chance of rain in Nashville tonight is only 10%, so expect dry weather.

Showers and thunderstorms will move in from the south early on Friday morning. As the day progresses they move northeast producing heavy rainfall, some lightning and thunder. An isolated, embedded strong storm is also possible. In this case, short-term gusty winds are the main cause. However, heavy rain, waterlogging and temporarily poor driving conditions pose a far greater threat.

Rain and storm density will decrease Friday evening.

THIS WEEKEND:

There will be a few showers on Saturday. We will have persistent clouds. It will try to develop some sunshine as the afternoon progresses. High, 79.

Sunday looks warmer and even brighter in the late afternoon. High, 84.

NEXT WEEK:

Our weather will be warmer early next week. The high temperature on Monday will be 88 degrees. Tuesday seems windier and even hotter. High, 90.

More showers and storms will move across Middle Tennessee Tuesday night into Wednesday. A few strong storms are possible as the start line approaches Tuesday evening.
