203 FXUS64 KOHX 140451 AAA AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Nashville TN 1151 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1148 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 - Afternoon and evening thunderstorms will continue through the week. - Although the severe weather risk is low, heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and frequent lightning will be possible. - Warming trend will take place this week as many locations will near or surpass 100F for heat indicies. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Tuesday Night) Issued at 958 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 Storms have dissipated this evening giving way to a quiet but very warm and muggy night. A few showers and storms remain well north across Kentucky and expect that to continue through the overnight hours. Some patchy dense fog will develop especially in areas that experienced heavy downpours earlier today. Monday should be a carbon copy of Sunday`s weather with another round of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms across the area. Impacts should be similar with gusty winds, lightning, and brief heavy rainfall. For Tuesday...coverage of storms looks to be slightly less and as somewhat of a warming trend takes shape with Highs in the low 90s expected. The Heat Index readings will also start climbing closer to that triple digit mark as well. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through next Monday) Issued at 958 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 Wednesday through Friday look quite similar with best coverage of afternoon and evening convection remaining across the Plateau region. With that said, locations west of the Plateau will definitely feel the affects of the lack of storm and cloud coverage as Highs in the low to mid 90s and Heat Index values 100+F can be expected. By the weekend, a little more uncertainty takes shape with a bit better coverage of storms possibly on Saturday. However if that doesn`t quite materialize, it`s safe to say the lack of convection and cloud cover definitely equals hotter temps to deal with as we go through the weekend and into next week. So yeah, welcome to Peak Summer in Middle Tennessee! && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1148 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 VFR expected with exception of possible MVFR/IFR BR development at KCSV and KSRB between 10Z-13Z. Afternoon and evening VCTS/TSRA coverage will be on the lower end on Monday, so did not include in TAFs at this time as confidence is low. If any TSRA impacts occur, those would mostly be confined to KCKV, KBNA, and KMQY from 19Z-23Z. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
