.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Monday Night)
Issued at 1034 PM CDT Sat Jul 12 2025

A line of showers and thunderstorms is moving into Middle Tennessee
from the northwest currently. Not expecting any severe weather
from this line, and it has pretty quickly become outflow dominant
since entering middle Tennessee. Overnight, we could see more
isolated showers thanks to how moist the air mass is (and
continues to become with moisture advection into the area
continuing).

For Sunday, a weak shortwave will be approaching our area, as well
as a front stalling to our north. More numerous showers and
thunderstorms are expected once again, and while the severe threat
is low, some localized flooding, gusty winds, and frequent lightning
can be expected from stronger storms.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through next Sunday)
Issued at 1034 PM CDT Sat Jul 12 2025

Ridging into the work week favors more warm temperatures and
moisture in middle Tennessee. This will lead to continued diurnal
rain chances and hot heat indices through at least mid-week.
Probabilities for over 100 degree heat indices are around 20 - 40%
by mid-week, with higher probability as you get closer to western
Tennessee. Highs will be in the low to mid 90s through the week.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1231 AM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025

VFR is expected through at least 18Z although cannot rule out
some BR/BCFG developing at KSRB and KCSV from 09Z-13Z. Timing of
any TSRA beyond 18Z is too difficult to pinpoint in TAF forecast
at this time as coverage and impacts are quite uncertain. Although
if TSRA impacts terminals, it will be between 18Z-00Z and brief
MVFR/IFR conditions will be possible.
