...New AVIATION...

.KEY MESSAGES...
Updated at 112 PM CDT Sat Mar 15 2025

- Severe thunderstorm risk through this evening with chances for
  damaging winds, large hail and tornadoes.

- Heavy rain with a risk for flooding in urban, low-lying, and
  poor drainage areas, especially west of I-65.

- Gusty non-thunderstorm winds between 35 to 45 mph through this
  evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Rest of today through Sunday)
Issued at 1048 AM CDT Sat Mar 15 2025

Showers and thunderstorms continue this morning as the warm front
pushes northward. Right now storms have stayed mostly sub severe,
with some small hail reported. But, instability and additional
moisture will move northward through the day, increasing the fuel
for strong to severe storms this afternoon. Very strong low to mid
level shear will increase the threat for strong updrafts and
storms able to produce damaging wind gusts, hail, and even
tornadoes, especially in the southern half of the area in the
moderate risk. The limiting factor so far has been the warmer air
aloft capping a lot of the convection from going severe, but with
the warm front lifting northward, surface warming will continue
and allow for the cap to weaken to increase the severe threat.
Models continue to show the cap weakening and surface based CAPE
increasing through the afternoon, so remain weather aware and have
multiple ways to receive warnings!

PWAT values will also continue to increase, and with high rain
rates and training of heavy rainfall, flash flooding will also be
a threat this afternoon and evening. Heavy rain should move out of
the area after midnight, but lingering showers will be possible
through mid day Sunday.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Sunday Night through next Saturday)
Issued at 1048 AM CDT Sat Mar 15 2025

Drier and cooler conditions will start the week as the deep trough
over the eastern CONUS continues eastward. Temps will warm up
Tuesday and Wednesday as ridging builds in ahead of the next
trough, and rain chances return Wednesday night into Thursday
morning. The cold front associated with that trough will dry the
region out quite a bit, and may increase the fire weather threat
for Thursday and Friday. Ridging builds in for Friday followed by
another shot at rain next weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 112 PM CDT Sat Mar 15 2025

A line of strong thunderstorms is currently situated across
central Tennessee, between KCKV and KBNA. Over the next 1 to 3
hours, this line will slowly move east, approaching the I-65 by
21Z (bringing VCTS into KBNA and KMSQ). Ahead of this line,
scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue to develop and
move to the northeast. Coverage is not enough to warrant a FM
group, so have kept VCTS for now. Between 21Z and 02Z, a strong to
severe line of thunderstorms will impact BNA, MSQ, CSV and SRB
from west to east. Frequent lightning, and strong winds up to 35
knots are the most likely hazard (included in the TEMPO). There is
a low chance of severe winds (50+ knots) at terminal sites during
this time frame. A tornado cannot be ruled out with the passage of
this main line either. Behind this line, there will be 3 to 4
hours of -TSRA. Additional thunderstorms are expected to develop
after 09Z, primarily impacting MSQ, BNA, and CKV between 09 and
15Z.
