Weather Update – 10:45 p.m. Monday

Skies are now mostly cloudy with breezy conditions from the southwest to keep temperatures to just the middle and upper 50s for us at the coolest point of the night. Winds will be blowing from the south and southeast at 5 to 10 miles per hour. A few showers have already begun to develop though for West Tennessee, the risk for severe weather is still low overnight tonight and most of the rain will be isolated until after midnight.

Temperatures will warm up to the lower and middle 70s tomorrow afternoon – near record highs for February 28th! During the morning and through the day into Tuesday night, some thunderstorms could become strong or even severe with a potential for damaging winds and large hail. During the afternoon and evening especially, tornadoes cannot be ruled out. From Tuesday night to Wednesday morning you’ll need to make sure you have multiple ways of receiving severe weather information.

This image above shows a list of the highlights within this forecast. We’ll look over the new data tomorrow morning and lay out more specifics on the forecast if we can. Stay tuned to WBBJ 7 Eyewitness News for the latest forecast and with the VIPIR 7 Storm Team on-air and online for more updates!
