.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Friday)
Issued at 1225 AM CDT Thu May 9 2024

Middle Tennessee is in for a stormy night. All modes of severe
weather remain on the table owing to an environment that is still
moist, unstable, and highly-sheared. Most of the OHX CWA is under
a Flash Flood Warning, in additional to a Tornado Watch for the
entire mid state, and severe storms currently extend as far west
as eastern Arkansas. The MRMS radar-estimated rainfall totals for
the past 24 hours show a wide swath of 7-10" amounts extending
from eastern Montgomery County through much of Robertson and
Sumner Counties. This is in addition to the tornado and wind
damage and large hail reports that have occurred across the mid
state during the past several hours. A significant portion of
Middle Tennessee remains under a moderate risk of severe storms
for the remainder of the night. The severe threat will continue
until a cold front, which is currently situated west of the
Mississippi River, finally pushes this volatile air mass east of
us. Expect some rain and storm chances to linger into Thursday
morning, especially in areas to the east and south of Nashville,
but the severe threat should end by 12Z. Look for cooler
temperatures to accompany the drier air Thursday night and Friday.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Friday Night through next Thursday)
Issued at 1225 AM CDT Thu May 9 2024

Cooler temperatures will last through the weekend, and the only
rain chances this weekend look to affect mainly the Upper Plateau
Saturday afternoon, and these will be relatively inconsequential.
Temperatures will gradually warm back up next week, and more
active weather systems look to affect the mid state beginning
Monday and without much of a break, just like this week, although
Middle Tennessee isn't yet targeted for any severe weather risk in
the SPC's extended outlook. Both the 6-10 day and 8-14 day
outlooks for Middle Tennessee favor near normal temperatures and
above normal rainfall, meaning that we're in for a very wet month
of May.

&&

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1141 PM CDT Wed May 8 2024

A line of strong to severe thunderstorms is still expected to
sweep across all TAF sites tonight. Prevailing wind will remain
southerly around 10kt. Thunderstorm winds may be significantly
higher, around 20kt with gusts to 34 kts. VFR conditions return by
midday tomorrow with west to northwest wind 5-10kts.
