URGENT UPDATE: Nashville residents should prepare for a wet start to the weekend as the National Weather Service (NWS) confirms overnight showers are expected. With a staggering 80 percent chance of precipitation, locals are advised to brace for damp conditions today.
Rainfall will begin overnight and continue into Saturday morning, with amounts potentially reaching up to a quarter of an inch before tapering off by 10 a.m. Saturday. Temperatures will peak at around 61 degrees during the day but will drop significantly as the rain subsides.
As residents adjust to the cooler weather, a shift in winds to the west-northwest is expected, increasing from a light breeze to 10 to 15 mph, with gusts potentially hitting 20 mph. By Saturday night, temperatures will plummet to around 33 degrees, and the skies will gradually clear.
Looking ahead, Sunday promises to deliver brighter skies with temperatures hovering near 42 degrees. Yet, the chill will remain, especially on Sunday night when temperatures could dip to 23 degrees as a consistent northwest wind persists.
As the new workweek begins, a welcome return of sunshine will see Monday’s high climbing back to a comfortable 50 degrees. However, moments of cold weather will punctuate the week, particularly with a forecast for Tuesday where temperatures are expected to approach 59 degrees alongside lively southwest winds.
Residents should stay alert, as midweek brings a potential shift with a 30 percent chance of showers on Wednesday, accompanied by mostly cloudy skies. The evening may see a decrease in rain likelihood, but the mixed weather will persist into the rest of the week.
