Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 1225 PM CDT Mon Jul 7 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1221 PM CDT Mon Jul 7 2025 - Better rain chances Today and Tomorrow, but medium to high thunderstorm chances return for the second half of the week. The severe weather threat is low. - Localized flash flooding, frequent lightning, and gusty winds will be possible with storms this week. - Heat indices will reach the upper 90s to low 100s today through Tuesday across most of Middle Tennessee west of the Cumberland Plateau, with the heat easing up starting on Wednesday. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Tuesday) Issued at 1152 AM CDT Mon Jul 7 2025 Medium rain chances continue through tomorrow evening. Temperatures rise into the low 90s with heat index values creeping into the low 100s west of the Plateau. Scattered storms have already begun to develop across the CWA. Any of these storms have the potential to lead to localized flooding as PWAT values are near 1.5" across the mid-state. Any of these storms are also capable of producing frequent lightning, and wind gusts up to 50mph. Remain weather aware and monitor the radar if you have any outdoor plans today. Storm activity is expected to end between 9-11pm. Patchy fog begins to develop overnight into the early morning hours, especially for areas that receive rain today. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday Night through next Monday) Issued at 1152 AM CDT Mon Jul 7 2025 As high pressure begins to move out of the area, we enter into an unsettled weather pattern through the end of the week. Rain chances begin to increase Wednesday through the weekend as an upper level trough moves into our area from the Northwest. The best time for thunderstorm development is late morning through early evening. The threat for severe weather remains low. However, any storm that develops will have the potential to produce gusty winds and heavy rainfall that can lead to localized flooding. Temperatures will start to relax to seasonal averages throughout the rest of the week. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1221 PM CDT Mon Jul 7 2025 Showers and thunderstorms have developed across the area a little ahead of schedule today. We currently have TSRA impacting BNA, MQY, and SRB; these TAFs have TEMPOs as a result. Additional convection is possible throughout the afternoon which could impact any airfield. Winds favor a SW or WSW direction at 5-8 kts through the afternoon hours. Storms could cause brief wind gusts in addition to brief reduction in visibility. Conditions calm during the evening with VFR expected. Weather conditions tomorrow afternoon will be very similar to that of today. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
