Like somebody flicked a switch, Memorial Day Weekend brought the summer like weather, as an upper level high built over the region. Highs in the upper atmosphere have warm air underneath them, and that’s why it’s warmed up so much.
We have had a few t’storms, especially in southern Middle Tennessee, where Lawrenceburg and Lawrence County received up to 3″ of rain in an hour. The same for Hardin County earlier.
Look for more of the same on Sunday and Monday, with perhaps a slightly greater chance for scattered storms on Monday.
Don’t cancel your holiday plans, there will be sunshine, but if one of those isolated storms breaks out near you, get inside, away from the lightning.
