Raindrops Sparse So Far Today, But Better Chances Late Today & Tonight

Radar 1030.jpg

Once again, we could really use some rain to wash the salt and brine off of the roads. So far today, the rain has been a disappointment, passing to our north and south. However, chances increase late this afternoon and tonight. We have a weak front that will move through tomorrow morning, and although it will only cool our night time temps down (daytime highs in 60s Wed!), it should help increase our rain chances overnight and into the morning.

  4. Kacey says:

    Davis, what do you think about the severe weather threat?

  5. "THE BUZZ" Josh Roberson says:

    Well folks it looks like tonight could be a long night for some of our viewing area.
    There is a risk for SEVERE SUPER CELL
    T-STORMS later on today and into tonight.
    The main threats look to be large hail and damaging winds ,however, if the storms get started earlier than expected super cells will be likely with some tornadoes possible. It looks like the best chance for severe weather is from EAST AR,WEST TN,AND WEST MIDDLE TN.
    The hottest part of the day is when it should start getting underway,which is at 3PM.
    I do think a weather watch will be issued.
    This will most likely be a T-Storm Watch, but if the instability starts earlier it will be a Tornado Watch.
    SO STAY ALERT PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Then if thats not enough a bigger shot of severe weather will slam us on SAT/SAT NIGHT. They are saying it will be our first big severe weather outbreak of the year with Tornadoes the main threat.
    This is still to far out to tell but it looks promising for you strom chasers.

    Alright I’ll issue another statement soon so saty tuned and be alert.

    CONSIDER YOURSELF BUZZED………

    Josh Roberson

  6. Jack says:

    The weather people in Memphis are saying that in AR the visible satellite is showing strong develpment of convection and its clearing and heading our way. With clearing its making the atmosphere very unstable and TSTORMS will start to erupt soon. I think its gonna be bad tonight yall.

  7. Kacey says:

    I’m not trying to be rude right now but how can you say tornado’s are going to be the MAIN threat for Saturday? It’s only Tuesday and things can change. That’s not going to do nothing but scare people, including me! lol

  8. Jason says:

    Im with Kacey, I think the BUZZ is talking about the wrong end.

  9. JAMIE says:

    LOL OMG YALL ARE FUNNY STOP IT OK.
    DAVIS GETTING SUCKED UP LOL THAT WOULD BE A SIGHT OMG.
    JUSTIN IS GAY WE ALL KNOW IT BUT HE DONT NEED SUCKING UP BECAUSE HE DOES THAT QUIET WELL ROFL.

  10. Kacey says:

    Right now the tornado chance is only 2 percent for western middle TN and 5 percent for Western. Not all that high right now.

  11. storm perdiction center says:

    ok folks this saturday and sunday will be a super outbreak of severe weather over the south with the greatest risk threat over arkansas and the tennessee valley this could mean the possibility of a large and deadly tornado outbreak for these area please stay tuned to your local stations for more updates

  12. Cameron K. says:

    It use to be so calm spring and summer of last year. sara chichi can’t you go off and do your own thing. Our passion on this blog is weather your’s is not, so I ask you nicely, please go and do somthing else.

  13. Jamie says:

    madonna lol right.
    Kailyn u bad boy lol

  14. Josh Roberson says:

    I have been posting on this blog for ever and I find it funny that yall seem to bash my post from “THE BUZZ”.
    Let me tell ya’ll something.
    I base that on professional models and tools that I got on my computer. I overlap models and get a more accurate forecast then most AMATTURE people.
    I perdicted the snow fall we had about 2 weeks ago to happen and yall kept saying no its disipating, but look what happened.
    So I think my forecast are just as good as any other. And kids are very inexperienced ok. I have been in conjunction with NEWS 2 for years. I sent them numerous footage and had them aired from the 2004 Tornado outbreak and the one last spring. I email them numerous pictures from weather events and even did A live shot from Jackson when they got hit by tornados a few years ago.
    So I will not stop putting my forecast on this blog. I have been doing it for years and it will stay that way.
    And as for the malacious comments, ya’ll should act more matture and respect the unique aspect of weather. I get paid good for what I do and its a great hobby.
    So please stop and grow up.

    Josh Roberson

  15. Betty says:

    Josh you are good and I like your forecast. I agree people should grow up.
    Josh keep up the good work brother.

  16. Kacey says:

    OMgosh, I wouldn’t be the least bit suprised if this blog got shut down because of the way all you immature people are acting. You know there are actually people that come here to talk about weather and the forecast.

  17. Jamie says:

    Kailyn leave him alone. Your a minor and you dont got professional programs on your computer ok, you just use the sites.
    Like most idiots on this blog do.

  18. Connie@Waynesboro says:

    Look you all the fact is TN weather is very hard to perdict we end up in the middle of everything.

    GROW UP KAILYN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. Kacey says:

    I think I’ve come to the conclusion that the immature people here is just one person. I think they just make up fake names every 5 minutes.

  20. Cameron K. says:

    That’s why I only mention my opinion and thoughts of the future instead of saying or acting like it’s a forecast after all I’m only a amuture so until I’m a met I won’t try to professionally forecast like one.

  21. rdeanh34 says:

    I know the naysayers would say to just ignore the garbage posts, but it is tiring to sift through all the garbage. Such a shame, because this blog can be and usually is an informative blog that I look at daily. I think it’s time that either some more filtering measures take place to keep the garbage off, or shut down the “comments” section of the blog (and/or possibly have those that post go through a pre-approval or filtering process.) The garbage is not necessary.

  22. Christian says:

    Hi everyone. I went through a deleted a few comments due to profanity. I am working today on the new NashvilleWX website, which will better handle these issues for you all. Look for the redesign tomorrow or thursday.

  23. Cameron K. says:

    Thanks Christian you really helped out.

  24. Thank goodness. I’m so tired of being so mean. It’s just not me.

  25. Chris says:

    Though we did see some snow this winter, it is obviously not going to be the kind of winter many of us hoped for. For the 4th time in a row, we are going to have to “wait until next year”. Do some of you think that sooner or later law of averages will catch up and someday we’ll have a decent winter? Or is “wait til next year” going to end up being “wait until never”?

  26. Kacey says:

    The severe weather chances for today looking any better?

  27. Verbatim says:

    Chris,

    I believe these cycles that the Jet Stream, El Nino, and what not go through will eventually pan out for a while in Tennessee again…the only questions are: how long will it take and will we still be alive? O_o

  28. Cameron K. says:

    naaaaah I’m sure we’ll get a good winter weather system soon. Year 2894 have’nt got a good snow storm yet and my great great great great great ect… grand kids will be saying I’m sure we’ll get a good winter weather system soon. lol

  29. Awesome Christian!!,

    Im looking forward to that new Nashvillewx.com. Sure need it! But looks like rain is moving in the Mid Tn direction, and as always if it gets rough here, I’ll tell yall about it. Later guys..

    THROUGH PRE-FRONTAL WARM SECTOR AS FAR N AS SE MO. A CORRIDOR OF
    SUBSTANTIAL SURFACE HEATING IS ALSO OCCURRING FROM NRN AR THROUGH

    THE ATMOSPHERE IS STILL STRONGLY CAPPED BY A PRONOUNCED ELEVATED

  32. David F. in Murfreesboro says:

    Ryan in Hickman, I’m sure I’ll see you on here tonight if the storms start looking violent. As for this weekend, no time is good for severe storms or anything but if we do have to have them I would rather have them during the day. It seems like we have a lot of storms at night time now for some reason and I really, really hate when I can’t see what’s going on outside.

  35. tjcharlene says:

    Alright guuys I know it seems as all hope is lost for a decent snow this year, but dont give up just yet. One of our biggest snow events ever came in mid March and it was also an El nino winter. It was a quiet winter up untill that event so don’t give up just yet. I am a bit concerned about this weekend though Thanks news 2 for giving the extended heads up.

  36. Cameron K. says:

    snow chance don’t count on it.

    Hey mets we cracked 62.5 Here in Thompson’s Station.

    david F, I would’nt worry to much about tonight, be alart saturday. Unless my knowledge about weather is as bad as my contractions. lol. Also get a NOAA weather radio if you don’t have one yet, they keep you informed.

  37. candill says:

    One thing here is for sure. There are many people who are passionate about the weather. I am almost afraid to disagree with some folks because they take it so personal, but there are hardly few missed storm forecasts. Snow has always been tricky, but the storms and rain are pretty well hit. I take it more to heart when our chances are 60% or more. I think one reason people like me as well as so many others love the weather is because it can be just beautiful. The way the sky colors can beam off the most awesome blue or the most wicked almost black clouds! Has anyone ever noticed how beautiful the hills around here are when the sky is just the right shade of dark gray? The way the wind feels as if the spirits had been released from the heavens to play. To all you weather haters, have you ever just stood in the winds before a storm? Close your eyes and just breath? There are many wonderful, scary and interesting things about the weather. We cannot control the weather, we cannot stop it, however as time as went by we can now have better warnings that can save people’s lives. I would rather be told that we need to be watching for possible bad weather, than to just assume that the folks at news 2 and others have no idea what they are talking about. They do know when there is a threat, so for all you haters out there who like to give folks here a hard time- I guess you wouldn’t be doing that if one of those (as you call screwed up forecast) saved you or someone you cared about. I love the weather. I respect the people who try to help, wether they are in it for a hobby or have a degree. So to all of you who really care, your doing a great job! This is simply just my thoughts after reading all the blogs on here today. For those of you who want to throw a fit over it, I didn’t make you read it. Everyone have a good night! and again- Thank-you. Candi from Carthage.

    thanks kacey, i was waiting for someone to say something like that. i am not near a tv so i was relying on this…

    great post, candi. we need more poeple like you who actually care about the weather.

    I agree with you kacey. I bet its only one or two people posting with different names who are ruining this blog for everyone.

  43. Timothy Parry Jr. in Gallatin,TN says:

    Maybe something is not going to happen in Nashville itself but the Clarksville area might get it, at least according to the National Weather Service(the official source for weather information) they woulden’t put a mesoscale out if they didn’t think something was going to happen.

  44. "THE BUZZ" Josh Roberson says:

    Ok as I was hinting earlier in my buzz, the SPC has issued a severe t-storm watch……..

    URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
    SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH NUMBER 26
    NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
    505 PM CST TUE FEB 20 2007

    THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A
    SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF

    NORTHEAST ARKANSAS
    EXTREME SOUTHERN ILLINOIS
    WESTERN KENTUCKY
    SOUTHEAST MISSOURI
    WESTERN TENNESSEE

    EFFECTIVE THIS TUESDAY AFTERNOON FROM 505 PM UNTIL MIDNIGHT CST.

    HAIL TO 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER…THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS TO 70
    MPH…AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS.

    THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 55
    STATUTE MILES NORTH AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM 15 MILES WEST
    SOUTHWEST OF WALNUT RIDGE ARKANSAS TO 20 MILES SOUTH SOUTHEAST OF
    CLARKSVILLE TENNESSEE. FOR A COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE
    THE ASSOCIATED WATCH OUTLINE UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU6).

    REMEMBER…A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE
    FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN AND CLOSE TO THE WATCH
    AREA. PERSONS IN THESE AREAS SHOULD BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR
    THREATENING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND LISTEN FOR LATER STATEMENTS
    AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAN AND OCCASIONALLY
    DO PRODUCE TORNADOES.

    DISCUSSION…SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS
    EVENING ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN AR/SOUTHEAST MO…SPREADING ACROSS
    THE WATCH AREA. DESPITE RATHER WEAK CAPE VALUES…COLD TEMPERATURES
    ALOFT AND STRONG VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES SUGGEST THE THREAT OF
    SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

    AVIATION…A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL SURFACE AND ALOFT
    TO 2 INCHES. EXTREME TURBULENCE AND SURFACE WIND GUSTS TO 60
    KNOTS. A FEW CUMULONIMBI WITH MAXIMUM TOPS TO 450. MEAN STORM
    MOTION VECTOR 26035.

    Now all ya’ll who were bashing my forecast earlier can all see I was right.
    I put my models in overlap mode and it allows me to be more accurate on forecast.
    I will continue to keep ya’ll ahead of all that happens in this meesed up weather state. I enjoy it and its my passion.

    Consider yourself buzzed………

    Josh Roberson

  45. Doppler Dave says:

    My question is, will hail & occasional high wind gusts remain the primary threat? I see that they have Clarksville in a 2% chance for tornadoes. With this system & its dynamics, are tornadoes a major concern? Is there a lot of spin in the atmosphere?

  46. ChiChi says:

    yes there is a chance for isolated tornadoes.

  47. Hey David, Whats goin on bud?? Nothing much here but some wind gusts up to 38mph.. Winds really picked up here within the last 10 mins. But i’ll keep u up to date on whats going on here. Later guys!
