577 FXUS64 KOHX 011546 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1046 AM CDT Mon Sep 1 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1041 AM CDT Mon Sep 1 2025 - Low to medium rain chances return to the forecast starting on Labor Day. Severe weather is not expected. - Temperatures in the upper 70s to mid 80s for highs through the forecast period. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Tuesday Night) Issued at 1041 AM CDT Mon Sep 1 2025 A cluster of showers are ongoing along the plateau this morning with MRMS estimating rainfall up to 1.5-2.5" in a couple of localized spots in Jackson and eastern Fentress counties. There is quite a moisture gradient this morning from our northwest where dew points are in the low 50s to areas further south and east where dew points are in the mid 60s. This gradient is thanks to a surface trough set up over West Tennessee. The latest CAMs show additional shower and storms developing through the day and into the evening on the moist side of the boundary. Activity should decrease after midnight. The higher moisture will still be around on Tuesday along with a troughy upper air pattern. This means additional shower and storm chances Tuesday and Tuesday night. With the showers and storms around highs on Tuesday will be a couple degrees cooler than today. Highs on Tuesday will be in the mid 70s to mid 80s. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through next Monday) Issued at 1041 AM CDT Mon Sep 1 2025 The upper troughing will remain to start the extended period which means the shower and storms chances will continue on Wednesday. A deeper lobe of upper air energy will pivot around the large upper low centered north of the Great Lakes on Thursday which will push a surface cold front through our area throughout the day. This will increase the PoPs. It will also turn off the rain chances for Friday as drier air works into the region behind the front. A secondary cold front will move through Friday night or Saturday. If the front holds off until Saturday there could be a low chance of some scattered showers ahead of the front but no weekend wash out. Behind the second cold front, Sunday and Monday look pleasant with highs in the mid 70s to mid 80s and lows in the 50s && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 600 AM CDT Mon Sep 1 2025 VFR conditions prevail at this time with just SCT to BKN mid and high-level clouds. Isolated showers and thunderstorms develop this afternoon, however, probabilities and confidence in direct impacts and timing to terminals remains too low to include in TAFs. There`s a low chance for showers to continue into the overnight hours as well. Otherwise, northeasterly winds will become southeasterly this morning, but remain light at around 5-10 knots. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
