Weather Alerts

The weather team is closely monitoring conditions in Nashville as severe weather continues to unfold. A Flash Flood Warning and a Flood Watch are in effect, urging residents to stay vigilant and updated. Keep an eye on local forecasts for any changes, and always remember: stay weather aware!

Severe Weather Unfolding

It’s currently 6:00 AM in Nashville, TN, with temperatures at a mild 61°F. However, we are experiencing severe weather conditions that bring a sense of urgency to the morning streets. The air is saturated with 100% humidity, creating an almost heavy, oppressive atmosphere. Calm winds are barely rustling the branches, offering no relief from the discomfort of thick, moist air. Overcast skies loom overhead, a grim blanket that hints at the tumultuous weather still to come.

Weather Changes Coming

A significant shift is on the horizon as storms roll through the area. Expect heavy rainfall to intensify further, which will dramatically affect the feel outside. The moisture will cling to your skin, making the warmth of 61°F feel stickier and less comfortable. While winds are currently calm, any gusts that do arise will feel cooler against the damp air—an unwelcome shift for those unprepared. Prepare for thunder and downpours that could change your morning plans quickly.

Today’s Outlook

As we move through the day, anticipate a steady increase in rainfall, likely peaking in the late morning hours, with the threat of flash flooding looming. The groundbreaking of our landscapes will take on a different character as streams and roads could become unruly. If you’re heading out, keep your plans flexible; streets may turn slick and conversations will carry a tone of caution. Rain will persist well into the afternoon, and it’s wise to stay alert for updates as the water levels rise. Plan for a day where staying dry becomes the priority!
