6/16/25: SEVERE WEATHER ALERT! Thunderheads Dance Over Nashville

Showers and Thunderstorms on the Horizon

It’s currently 7:45 AM in Nashville, TN, and the air is thick with expectation as showers and thunderstorms likely roll in like a wild jazz tune, temperature sitting at a warm 73°F. Oh, but don’t be fooled—humidity’s hugging tightly at 87%, making the air feel heavy, electric, alive. The sky’s a gray canvas, smeared with the promise of rain, while calm winds lounge and drift, yet you can feel the pulse of change, whispering through the trees, dancing along the pavement.

Rain Expected

Now, shift your thoughts to what’s to come, because rain is on the way, and it’ll give today a whole new character. Thunderstorms likely stir things up, and though the temperature may peak at a sultry 88°F, you’ll notice the moist air wrapping around you, mingling with the drumbeat of approaching storms. This will feel warmer and stickier, just like fresh asphalt after a summer shower, so prepare for the air to thicken even more.

Today’s Outlook

As the day unfolds, expect that familiar Southern rhythm—the rain will tap-dance across rooftops, and by tonight, those storms will tighten their grip. The sun may tease at times, but the constant potential for rain will linger, keeping that low simmer of anticipation alive. With a low of 71°F, though it may feel like a cozy blanket draped over your shoulders, you’ll also want to keep an umbrella handy, because those showers and thunderstorms likely aren’t done yet, even as the day fades away.
