Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Nashville TN
729 PM CDT Wed Jun 2 2021

.UPDATE...
FOR EVENING DISCUSSION.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

A line of convection has developed over West Tennessee right along
a surface boundary that will push through the mid state during the
evening and overnight. So look for another round of showers and
storms to affect Middle Tennessee the next several hours. SPC's
marginal risk still covers nearly all of Middle Tennessee for the
rest of tonight. Have made some small adjustments to the sky and
POP grids for tonight and will re-issue the public forecast
shortly.

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF DISCUSSION.

BNA/MQY/CKV/CSV...A surface low is situated near Cairo, IL this
evening with plenty of moisture being pulled into Middle Tennessee
from the Gulf of Mexico ahead of this system. As the low pulls off
to the northeast, a surface boundary will drag across the mid
state overnight, with additional showers and perhaps a storm or
two expected with its passage. Ceilings will likely drop to MVFR
later this evening and last into tomorrow. Additional showers are
expected on Thursday, with afternoon storms also possible.

&&

.OHX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
