NWS Nashville

Dangerous heat continues with heat index values rising above 105 degrees tomorrow. Take necessary precautions like staying hydrated, reducing your time outdoors, and checking on those most vulnerable. #TNwx #MiddleTNwx

We are a little over half way through the year, and if you thought it's been a wet year so far you are correct! For Nashville it has been the 5th wettest start to the year with 40.43" of rain. #TNwx

More of the same today: hot, humid, and a few afternoon showers & t-storms (most places stay dry today though). Heat indices will climb back into the 100s by this afternoon, with exception to the Plateau. Continue practicing heat safety! #tnwx

The Heat Advisory has been extended through Wednesday. Heat index values of 105°+ are likely to occur each afternoon in many locations west of the Cumberland Plateau. Meanwhile, our rain and storm chances will start to taper off somewhat beginning on Tuesday.

Today marks the first day of a Heat Advisory that is likely to stretch across most, if not all of the upcoming week. Heat index values are expected to reach 105°+ in many areas west of the Cumberland Plateau this afternoon, and for many more afternoons coming up.

We are seeing new storms blossoming this afternoon and we are watching storms moving down across Kentucky. If storms approach, move indoors. Lightning with recent storms has been frequent and ferocious. Rainfall could be very heavy, so please do not drive through flooded areas.

You know the drill by now. Saturday will bless us with more of the same. Look for warm and humid conditions with scattered storms mainly during the afternoon and into the evening. The severe storm risk is very low, but localized flooding will be a concern with any slow-movers.
