AS HIGHER CLOUDS STREAM IN FROM THE WEST, EXPECT A NICE NIGHT HERE
IN MIDDLE TENNESSEE, WITH LOWS IN THE 40S. THE CLOUDS WILL STICK
AROUND WEDNESDAY BEFORE CLEARING EAST. HIGHS TOMORROW WILL BE IN THE
UPPER 60S TO MID 70S, AND ONLY EXPECTED TO GET WARMER IN THE COMING

LONG TERM
(FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1030 PM CDT TUE APR 7 2026
WE'RE ENTERING A DRY PERIOD HERE IN THE AREA, ACCOMPANIED BY ABOVE-
NORMAL TEMPERATURES BEING FORECASTED. AS HIGH PRESSURE GETS SQUEEZED
BY AN APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM, WE WILL CONTINUE TO WARM INTO
THE WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO RISE INTO THE 80S BY
SUNDAY, WITH SOME PLACES FLIRTING WITH 90 DEGREES! THE BAD NEWS WITH
THIS DRY WEATHER IS IT WILL BE WORSENING OUR DROUGHT CONDITIONS.
HOWEVER, IT LOOKS LIKE WE MAY GET SOME RAIN INTO NEXT WEEK ACCORDING
TO LONG RANGE GUIDANCE, BUT WE WILL HAVE TO SEE HOW THAT PANS OUT AS
WE GET CLOSER IN TIME.
