Scattered Storms This Evening, Less Humid Weekend

Weather Update – 10:45 p.m. Thursday

Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue to move through West Tennessee this evening keeping conditions mild. The good news, is that this rain is coming from a cold front which ultimately will bring a big change in temperature and humidity for West Tennessee. The weekend forecast has something to look forward to!

TONIGHT
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue overnight. Some storms could produce heavy downpours, gusty winds, and frequent lightning but the risk for severe weather remains low. Due to cloudy skies, temperatures will only drop to the lower and middle 70s at the coolest point of the night.

Scattered storms will continue into Friday. Once again, some storms will bring heavy rain, strong winds, and lots of lightning but the risk for large hail and damaging winds will be low. Temperatures will reach highs in the middle 80s at the warmest part of the day. By evening, the chance for rain will drop to 30% and continue to fall after sunset.
