So much to decipher this weekend. Let’s get to it..
- A Tornado Watch is in effect until 10:00 p.m. Friday night.
- Tomorrow early in the day, it should be again hit and miss. Then by the afternoon we will see things ramp up. Timing is everything here. Expect widespread flooding, hail, winds, and tornadoes. Right now the NWS has most of Middle Tennessee at a Level 2 risk. I wouldn’t be surprised to see that moved to a 3 by Saturday morning.
- A Flood Watch continues through Sunday.
- We will see rains move out by Sunday afternoon. You will notice a considerable drop in temps on Sunday.
- We will clear out and remain cooler through the mid-week in front of the next system.
- As always we will update as needed throughout the weekend.
