Southeast winds at 15 to 25 mph will persist as we finish the weekend. Off and on rain showers are also in the picture, but your Sunday will not be a wall-to-wall washout. This morning there are some showers across Middle Tennessee with heavier rain in West Tennessee. That axis of moisture in West Tennessee will push our way from morning through the afternoon. For that reason, I expect showers to be most numerous from morning through the afternoon. But…a quick bout of rain is possible at just about any point in time so check that “NWS Radar Loop” above if you’re stepping out the door and want to avoid getting wet. A few peeks of sun are out there, but I’m calling for a mostly cloudy sky and highs in the upper 60s. That gusty wind from the southeast won’t let up until this evening, which in addition to the rain threat might hamper your outside plans. A few thunderstorms are possible on Monday (probably not until evening or night) and again on Tuesday…some of those could be strong. The Storm Prediction Center has placed West Tennesse and areas to our west and northwest under a slight risk of severe weather today, but that shouldn’t impact the News 2 viewing area.
