746 FXUS64 KOHX 030501 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1201 AM CDT Wed Sep 3 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1158 PM CDT Tue Sep 2 2025 - Low to medium rain chances continue each day through Thursday, with a secondary chance on Saturday. - Temperatures will peak on Friday in the 90s, and decrease back into the 70s and 80s by the weekend. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Thursday Night) Issued at 1048 PM CDT Tue Sep 2 2025 Clouds remain on satellite, with some weak echoes on radar. Not expecting any thunderstorm activity in the overnight hours, just some light rainfall. Tomorrow should be a bit better, with lighter POPs than today. However, storm motions remain on the low side. Not everyone will see rain, but, there`s a localized flash flooding chance with the showers and storms that do. Another opportunity for rain chances presents itself Thursday, as the first of two cold fronts come through. CAMs are suggesting that a line of storms moves through middle Tennessee with this front. Continuing on the trend as the previous forecaster, widespread severe weather continues to look unfavorable with the cold front, but given the linear nature and slight increase in winds aloft, I do agree that some stronger storms could produce isolated wind gusts. Majority of us will just see another rainy, thundering day. Temperatures through Thursday will be on the increase, with highs getting into the low to mid 80s. && .LONG TERM... (Friday through next Wednesday) Issued at 1048 PM CDT Tue Sep 2 2025 A secondary cold front on Friday should cool us slightly, and bring drier air. Unfortunately, we will have to be baked a bit by the atmosphere first. Ahead of the cold front Friday, winds will turn W/SW, and advect in some much warmer air. Temperatures as a result look to be in the low to mid 90s. Once that front passes through Friday afternoon, some post frontal showers and storms will work their way through middle Tennessee on Saturday. The payoff though: Highs in the 70s for the weekend, only increasing slightly into the low 80s by the time the work week starts. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1158 PM CDT Tue Sep 2 2025 Patchy fog tonight is resulting in MVFR to IFR visibilities across portions of Middle TN that received rain yesterday. Any fog that develops will diminish between 13Z and 14Z. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop, however, probabilities are too low to include mention of RA or TSRA in TAFs. Otherwise, winds will generally be southerly to southwesterly at less than 10 knots. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
