Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1235 PM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1235 PM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025 - Ongoing river flooding remains a concern, but levels are gradually falling. - Scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. A few storms could be severe, posing threats for damaging winds and hail. - The forecast for this weekend calls for sunny skies and mild temperatures. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Friday) Issued at 1133 AM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025 The first line of showers and isolated thunderstorms are pushing east out of the area. Dry weather will settle in for much of the afternoon ahead of our next round of showers and thunderstorms this evening. Afternoon sun and southerly winds will warm highs back into the 70s across the area. A broad low and upper level trough over the Great Lakes will push a cold front into our area later this evening. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will fire ahead of this front and as a trough axis moves in mainly after 3-4 PM. They will work west to east through about midnight. The afternoon sunshine will help to push CAPE values 500-1500 j/kg this afternoon into the evening. We will see effective shear push to 25-35 knots with good lapse rates, this will lead to some organized storms. Soundings show inverted Vs which will lead to gusty winds with any of the stronger cells. Given the amount of CAPE in the hail growth zone, hail up to 1.50" will be possible with any of the more organized cells. There is a lack of low level shear and there is little to no turning with height, this will keep the tornado threat very very low. The trough axis will linger over Middle TN into Friday. This will keep lingering showers over the Plateau tonight and scattered showers/isolated thunderstorms redevelop tomorrow afternoon mainly from I-40 south. No severe weather is expected on Friday but can't rule out some small hail with any stronger cells. Lows tonight fall into the 40s and cooler weather returns Friday with highs only in the upper 50s to lower 60s. && .LONG TERM... (Friday Night through next Thursday) Issued at 1133 AM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025 Upper level ridging will build in from the west with a surface high drifting south over the region. This will bring quiet and nice weather for the weekend. Northerly winds will keep things cool on Saturday and Saturday night with highs in the upper 50s to lower 60s and lows in the 30s. Southerly winds warm things up Sunday and Monday with highs pushing back into the 70s to around 80. Upper level trough and surface low will tack over southern Canada Monday night into Tuesday pushing a cold front south, this will bring a low chance low chance for showers over the Plateau Monday evening into Monday night. The temperatures roller coaster will continue and cool air will filter in behind the front for the middle part of the week. Highs drop back down into the 60s with lows in the 40s. We will see some warming towards the end of the week as a upper level ridge to our west pushes east. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025 SH and TS today at all TAF sites this afternoon and evening. Winds will become variable and light this evening after sunset, picking up tomorrow out of the north after the front comes through. Ceilings will lower to IFR conditions by tomorrow morning at all TAF sites as well. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
