.DISCUSSION...

At mid morning, the surface low center was just southwest of BNA,
Mainly light showers were scattered across the Mid State, with
the heaviest showers occurring over our far northern tier and up
over KY, especially western KY. Winds were light along the I-65
corridor, but away from the low pressure center, winds were
gusting over 30 mph. Gusty south winds were noted over our eastern
counties with gusty north winds over our western counties.

For the rest of today, look for mainly light showers to continue,
with occasionally moderate showers north of I-40. Rainfall
amounts through today will range generally from one tenth inch
along the AL border, to as much as one and one half along the KY
line. These amounts and rainfall rates are unlikely to produce new
flash flooding, so we will allow the Flash Flood Watch to expire
at 1 PM CDT. Some flood problems from overnight will persist,
including some street flooding and flooding of some low lying
areas. Certainly, some small streams and rivers will remain
elevated or in flood. Please see our hydrologic products for the
latest information.

The wind advisory has been extended until 4 PM. As the low
pressure center drifts northeast through the day, the gusty winds
will continue to spread into Mid TN areas away from the center of
the low. This means gusty northwest winds will spread across much
of the area including the I-65 corridor, possibly bringing down a
few trees, some weakened by the heavy rainfall. Gusts of 30-35
mph will be common this afternoon.

Temps will not change much as clouds and showers hang around and
cooler air wraps in from the northwest during the afternoon.

&&

.AVIATION...
12Z TAF DISCUSSION.

Mainly MVFR flight categories are being seen at issuance time, but
with the back side of the remnants of Harvey moving into Middle TN
this morning, IFR conditions are expected to settle in through
most of the day. Conditions should start improving by Saturday
morning.

Winds will be breezy today, with significant wind shifts as the
center of the system passes through the mid-state. Gusts of 25 to
30 knots will be possible through mid-afternoon and while gusts
will relax, it will remain breezy through midnight.
