875 FXUS64 KOHX 062313 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 613 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Friday night) Issued at 1115044 AM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 After a very warm and humid Thursday, passage of a late day cold front will bring cooler and less humid conditions. Friday will be an excellent day with sunny skies, slightly below normal temps, reasonable humidity levels, and a northwest breeze. Surface high pressure will be located directly over the area and this high center will keep conditions very nice through Friday night as well. && .LONG TERM... (Saturday through next Thursday) Issued at 1044 AM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 This weekend, we will be under northwest flow aloft. A series of disturbances / weakening MCSs will come our way. The first of these systems will approach on Saturday. This wave is expected to dissipate as it moves into relatively dry and stable air across our area, but some models do show a few remnant scattered showers making it into northwest Middle Tennessee. Based on our latest official model blend, we can expect patchy cloudiness but a mainly rain-free Saturday. Temps will be seasonably warm Saturday but humidity levels will remain reasonable. We will see more significant rain and thunderstorm chances late Saturday night through Sunday morning with a decaying MCS and a cold front. Thankfully, we are not expecting severe wx with these systems as atmospheric conditions continue to look stable. Also, we are not looking for any flooding with average expected rainfall amounts from one quarter to one half inch. Although the main batch of rain and thunder is expected Sunday morning, scattered showers and storms will be possible Sunday afternoon as well until a cold front drops completely across the area. This Sunday evening cold front will usher in another shot of cooler than normal air with low rain chances for Monday and Tuesday. For those looking for a break from the rainy pattern, the extended outlooks from CPC show a cooler and drier than normal pattern across the region early next week, transitioning to a warm but still dry pattern mid and late week. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 611 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 VFR conditions through the TAF period. SCT clouds 050-070 clearing later this evening. Breezy west winds up to 15 knots through 05-07z with light winds overnight. Winds will increase tomorrow after 15z, strongest over the Plateau. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
