PUSH MOISTURE NORTH FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO AND WE WILL SEE PWATS

THE SURFACE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN OVER MO THURSDAY NIGHT
WITH A GOOD PRESSURE GRADIENT DEVELOPING OVER TN. THIS WILL KEEP
THE BREEZY WINDS IN PLACE WITH GUSTS UP TO 20-30 MPH. WE WILL
CONTINUE TO SEE PERIODS OF RAIN OVERNIGHT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT.
WITH THE HIGH PWATS THE RAIN COULD BE HEAVY AT TIMES. INSTABILITY
LOOKS TO BE VERY LIMITED THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT KEEPING THE
THUNDERSTORM RISK VERY LOW, NO SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED. THE
WIDESPREAD RAIN WILL DIMINISH FROM WEST TO EAST TOWARDS DAYBREAK.
THE TROUGH AXIS WILL SWING THROUGH DURING THE DAY FRIDAY AND WE
WILL SEE SOME MID-LEVEL INSTABILITY DEVELOP, THIS WILL KEEP
SCATTERED SHOWERS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS
WILL BE MILD ON FRIDAY PUSHING INTO THE LOW TO MID 60S. RAIN

AREA WITH MOST OF THE RAIN COMING THURSDAY LATE EVENING INTO THE
OVERNIGHT. THE HIGHEST TOTALS WILL BE IN THE NORTHWEST PART OF THE
AREA AND A FEW SPOTS MAY PICK UP MORE THAN 2", THE NBM GIVES A
20-50% CHANCE OF 2"+ FROM AROUND NASHVILLE WEST.
AFTER A BRIEF COOL DOWN SATURDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 50S SHORT WAVE
RIDGING BUILDS IN SUNDAY WITH A DEEPENING LOW OVER SOUTHERN
CANADA. THIS WILL HELP TO PULL WARM AIR NORTH AND WE WILL SEE
HIGHS PUSH BACK INTO THE 60S SUNDAY AND TO NEAR 70 FOR SOME ON
MONDAY.
UNCERTAINTY IN THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST GROWS QUITE A BIT TUESDAY
INTO THE END OF THE WEEK. THE UNCERTAINTY IS WITH A TROUGH
EXITING THE GREAT LAKES AND PUSHING INTO THE NORTHEAST AND HOW FAR
SOUTH THE COLD AIR WILL PUSH. THE IMPACT IS SMALL, EITHER WE ARE
LOOKING AT SEASONAL TEMPS OR MILD TEMPS. DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED
