461 FXUS64 KOHX 152313 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 513 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 506 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 - Low to medium rain chances (10-40%) east of I-65 tonight with very light amounts. - Active weather pattern next week with temperatures favoring above-normal. - Best rain chances are Tuesday through Friday with periods of showers and a few t-storms. No severe weather expected at this time. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Sunday Night) Issued at 1111 AM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 It`s a breezy and warm morning across the area with some clouds over the southern and eastern parts. Temperatures are in the 60s with a few locations already into the 70s. We`ll be close to the record high of 79 at Nashville this afternoon. A cold front is moving through the Midwest currently and will move through our area overnight. The CAMs have some showers moving through the northeast third of the area with QPF less than 0.1". Most of the area is expected to remain dry. Sunday will be cooler with northerly surface winds and highs in the 60s instead of the 70s. There will be plenty of sunshine with high pressure parked over the Midwest. Sunday night will be the coldest of the forecast with high pressure parked over the area. Lows will be in the low to mid 30s. && .LONG TERM... (Monday through next Saturday) Issued at 1111 AM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 The pattern will become more active in the long term forecast. A weak wave looks like it will move through the area Monday night/Tuesday with more showers and possibly a rumble of thunder. The warm air advection will ramp up in response to a surface low that will move from the plains into the Midwest with temperatures on Tuesday rebounding back into the 70s. Once the wave moves through the area our upper flow will turn zonal to southwesterly as we progress into mid to late week. This will keep temperatures warm with more rain opportunities. Models continue to struggle with the ejection of the deep trough in the Southwest which is making it hard to pin down timing of PoPs and determining if there will be any hazardous weather locally associated with that trough. We`ll continue to monitor the trends, but right now, there is nothing jumping off the maps at me in regards to flooding or severe weather. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 506 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 Through 06Z, VFR conditions with gusty SSW winds occasionally up to 20KT. 06Z-12Z, a front will move across the Mid State with a band of clouds and isold -SHRA. CSV and maybe SRB will have a period of MVFR cigs/vsbys, but other sites are expected to stay VFR. Winds will go from WSW to NW as the front passes. After 12Z, all sites VFR. Winds will be NNW around 10KT with a few 16KT gusts. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
