KEY MESSAGES
UPDATED AT 1024 AM CDT TUE APR 7 2026

SHORT TERM
(REST OF TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1024 AM CDT TUE APR 7 2026
HOLY BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY. IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN OUTSIDE YET, GET OUT
THERE AND ENJOY IT. WE'LL WARM INTO THE UPPER 60S (LOW 60S PLATEAU)
WITH LOW DEW POINTS A LITTLE NORTHEAST BREEZE THAT WILL DEVELOP OVER
THE NEXT HOUR OR SO. OUR INCREDIBLY QUIET APRIL WEATHER CONTINUES
TOMORROW. AND THE NEXT DAY. AND THE NEXT DAY.
LONG TERM
(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1024 AM CDT TUE APR 7 2026
AS WE HEAD INTO THOSE NEXT DAYS, TEMPERATURES WILL START TO CLIMB A
FEW DEGREES EACH AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CULMINATE THIS WEEKEND WHEN
TEMPERATURES REACH INTO THE MID 80S DUE TO THE INFLUENCES OF AN
UPPER RIDGE THAT WILL BUILD INTO THE SOUTHEAST US. I TOOK A LOOK AT
RECORD HIGHS OVER THE WEEKEND AND WHILE WE'LL BE FLIRTING WITH THEM
ON SATURDAY, IT LOOKS LIKE SUNDAY WILL BE OUR BEST SHOT. NBM PROBS
SHOW A 60-70% CHANCE OF BREAKING THE RECORD OF 88 SET 120 YEARS AGO.
AT A MINIMUM, SUNDAY WILL BE THE WARMEST DAY OF THE WEEK.
AS FAR AS RAIN, MODELS ACROSS THE BOARD KEEP US DRY UNTIL AT LEAST
TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK, BUT THE BETTER CHANCE COULD COME ON WEDNESDAY.
THAT'S A LONG WAY OFF, SO I'LL REFRAIN FROM ANY DETAILS, BUT THE
BIGGER ISSUE WILL BE THE CONTINUED WORSENING OF DROUGHT CONDITIONS
ACROSS MIDDLE TN. I GUESS FOR NOW, ENJOY THE FANTASTIC WEATHER.
