A low pressure system just off shore of New Orleans has pushed clouds into middle Tennessee. These clouds are not associated with Hurricane Ida which is forecast to come on shore around Mobile Bay tomorrow morning. Today another 70 degree day despite the lack of clear blue sky that spoiled us this weekend.  Rain chances start to show up overnight, ending one of the longer dry spells of 2009. Rain chances pick up tomorrow through the day, the best chances along with heavier rain will be across our southern counties along the Alabama state line and the southeast quarter from Murfreesboro to Manchester. Below you see how Predictor has the rain here by morning Tuesday:

Hurricane Ida is packing 90 plus winds and moving north. It will weaken but likely still be a hurricane when it arrives tomorrow ealry morning on the coast. Hurricane warnings and watches are in effect at the coast. The low pressure system already to the west of the landfall will only enhance rain fall totals, forecast to be 5″-6″ of rain along with a tornado threat.
