Toasty and muggy, again today! Do I sound like a broken record? Sure feels that way! Including today, we have had five days of highs in the month of June of highs in the 90s!
With the exception of one outlier, the mid-state is rain-free. Calloway County continues to get hammered with one heavy downpour and some loud thunder. I’ve been eyeing this storm from the weather center and there is barely any motion with it. That leads to over two inches of rain which leads to a Flood Advisory in effect until 7:45 pm tonight.
Temperatures are still hot!! 6:49 PM as I type here…
Dew points in the upper 60s to lower 70s keeps things feeling very sticky out there.
Same trend follows tomorrow which provides favorable conditions for the develpment of strong thunderstorms…
The Storm Prediction Center has upgraded most of Middle Tennessee to be included under a ‘Slight Risk’ (2 on a 1 to 5 scale) for any of these storms to reach severe criteria. While damaging winds remain the greatest threat, hail and localized flooding cannot be ruled out.
Let’s check in with Futurecast for storm timing…
To recap: best time to take dad outdoors will be in the morning. The main timeline for these storms will be during the afternoon to evening…
Many fun things going on around town so you’ll want to remain weather aware before heading out. The 43rd annual American Artisan Festival is one of the fun festivities at Centinnel Park from 10 am to 5 pm. Live music, free arts and crafts for the kids, and just a grand time!
Here’s a peak at the 7-Day. I’ll go further in depth with storm timing before a delightful breakthrough of sunshine and lower humidity arrives by Tuesday into Thursday.
Hope you join me on Channel 4 at 10 tonight!
