Severe Weather Conditions

It’s currently 4:10 AM in Nashville, TN, where the temperature is a warm 64°F amidst severe weather conditions. The humidity has climbed to a soggy 100%, making the air feel heavy and oppressive. With calm winds right now, the atmosphere remains charged, building tension in the night sky, which is probably overcast and murky from impending storms.

Weather Changes Coming

Expect significant weather changes as those thunderstorms sweep through the area; conditions will be tumultuous. Winds are expected to pick up, reaching speeds of up to 60 mph, which will notably amplify the chill from the cooling rain.

Important Weather Alerts

Moving into the day ahead, conditions will remain unstable. Expect heavy rain, with the risk of flash flooding through the morning and possibly into the afternoon. This is not going to be a day for casual strolls—prepare for wet and hazardous conditions. If you’re headed out, anticipate potential flooding on roads and take every precaution.
