KEY MESSAGES
UPDATED AT 613 AM CDT MON JUL 6 2026
- AREAS OF DENSE FOG THIS MORNING WILL IMPROVE BY 9 AM.
- TYPICAL SUMMER-LIKE HEAT AND HUMIDITY ARE FORECAST FOR THE
UPCOMING WEEK. NO HEAT-RELATED HEADLINES ARE ANTICIPATED FOR THE
FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
- DAYTIME SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL

SHORT TERM
(TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1112 PM CDT SUN JUL 5 2026
A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY REMAINS STRETCHED ACROSS MIDDLE TENNESSEE
AS WE HEAD INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. WHILE RADAR ACTIVITY IS
CURRENTLY AT A NADIR, WE CAN EXPECT RADIATION FOG ACROSS THE
MAJORITY OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY, AND
VISIBILITIES MAY DROP CONSIDERABLY IN SOME AREAS. MEANWHILE, AN
UPPER TROUGH IS SITUATED TO OUR WEST, AND WITH ABUNDANT MOISTURE
STILL PRESENT IN THE ATMOSPHERE, WE CAN EXPECT CONTINUED RAIN AND
STORM CHANCES. FORTUNATELY, THE RISK OF SEVERE STORMS REMAINS
VERY LOW. THERE JUST ISN'T ENOUGH FORCING, DESPITE THE LINGERING
INSTABILITY.
LONG TERM
(WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 1112 PM CDT SUN JUL 5 2026
THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE WEATHER WEATHER PATTERN FOR THE UPCOMING
WEEK IS "UNSETTLED." WE AREN'T IN OUR TRADITIONAL BERMUDA HIGH
PATTERN, AND DON'T SEE THIS COMMON WARM-SEASON FEATURE
REDEVELOPING ANYTIME SOON. RATHER, WE CAN EXPECT A SERIES OF
UPPER TROUGHS AND WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARIES THAT SHOULD PROVIDE
ENOUGH FORCING IN COMING DAYS TO ENABLE HEAT-DRIVEN CONVECTION
MOST AFTERNOONS. TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE 7-DAY FORECAST PERIOD
WILL STAY VERY CLOSE TO SEASONAL NORMS. AND WHILE WE CAN EXPECT
TYPICAL SUMMERTIME HUMIDITY, THERE WON'T BE ANY NEED FOR HEAT-
RELATED HEADLINES FOR QUITE SOME TIME.
