.DISCUSSION...
SURFACE FRONT DRAPED WEST TO EAST ACROSS NORTHERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE
WITH ONGOING CONVECTION RUNNING SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG AND JUST SOUTH OF
FRONT. IR CLOUD TOPS HAVE REMAINED COLD WITH STRONGEST COMPLEX IN
MAURY COUNTY AT THIS TIME AND ANOTHER ONE FIXING TO DROP INTO
WESTERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE. DAMAGING WINDS APPEAR TO BE THE MAIN
THREAT...HOWEVER LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ACCOMPANY SOME OF THE
STORMS. TORNADO WATCH REMAINS FOR A SLIVER OF COUNTIES IN MIDDLE
TENNESSEE STRADDLING INTERSTATE 40 FROM WILSON COUNTY WESTWARD TO
THE TENNESSEE RIVER. TORNADO WATCH EXPIRES AT 3 AM CDT.

SURFACE FRONT WILL SAG SOUTHWARD DURING THE DAY TODAY AND BE
ALIGNED ALONG THE ALABAMA BORDER BY 00Z THIS EVENING THEN RETURN
NORTHWARD TONIGHT INTO NORTHERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE. A FEW STORMS
COULD BE SEVERE OVER SOUTHWESTERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE TODAY. WILL
HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE FOR MCS DEVELOPMENT BACK TO OUR WEST TOWARDS
KANSAS/OKLAHOMA DURING THE AFTERNOON AND SEE IF IT MIGHT TRY AND
MAKE A RUN TOWARD TENNESSEE LATE AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

UPPER RIDGE CENTERED OVER SOUTH TEXAS WILL DOMINATE MIDDLE
TENNESSEE'S WEATHER FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AS SHORT WAVES RUN
ACROSS THE TOP OF THE RIDGE KEEPING THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ONGOING
THIS WEEKEND AND INTO THE FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. BY MONDAY UPPER
RIDGE HAS RETROGRADED SOUTHWARD DOWN INTO OLD MEXICO ALLOWING FOR
A RATHER BROAD UPPER TROUGH TO DOMINATE MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK.
ONCE AGAIN THIS WILL KEEP THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ONGOING THROUGH THE
WORK WEEK. SOMEWHAT OF AN UNSETTLED PERIOD FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS.
