Weather Alerts

Attention, Nashville! Current weather conditions are being closely monitored, and we urge everyone to stay tuned for further updates. It’s essential to remain aware of the severe weather situation as we navigate the evening ahead.

Severe Weather in Nashville

It’s currently 7:18 PM in Nashville, TN, with temperatures sitting at a cool 59°F amid severe weather conditions. Humidity is high at 90%, making the air feel heavy and damp. Although the winds are calm right now, the atmosphere is charged, creating an uneasy stillness before the storms. The sky bears the weight of dark clouds, heavy with rain, setting a tense mood across the city.

Weather Changes Coming

While the temperature remains steady for now, you can expect an increase in severity. Rain is expected to continue, contributing to the oppressive humidity, which only adds to the discomfort of being outside. As the rain pours, accumulated moisture will create a chilling effect, amplifying that already cold impression. It will feel even cooler, so if you’re venturing out, dress accordingly to stay warm and dry.

Tonight’s Forecast

As we move deeper into the night, the forecast indicates that heavy rain will persist with potential flash flooding. Rainfall amounts could reach up to 3 inches in many areas, with localized spots receiving even more. Expect the conditions to remain hazardous, especially around roads and low-lying areas. Urban flooding is a growing concern, so be cautious of water accumulation in streets and on highways. Prepare for wet conditions lasting into the early morning hours, making for a soggy arrival to tomorrow.
