Slight Chance for Rain Over the Weekend

Weather Update – 11:00 p.m. – Thursday, May 31st

Thanks to lower dew points, the heat was a bit more bearable today! After starting out in the upper 50s earlier Friday morning, we were in the 80s this afternoon. Another cold front will come through this weekend bringing another break from the heat early next week, but this will also give us a potential for showers and thunderstorms.

Mostly clear skies are likely to continue tonight with temperatures falling to the lower 60s by sunrise Saturday.  There’s a slight chance for rain tomorrow (10%) with mostly sunny skies and highs in the upper 80s during the afternoon. There’s a little bit more edge to the likelihood for rain to fall Saturday night with a cold front coming through on Sunday. The risk for severe weather looks low but there may be some gusty winds with these storms – especially in northwest Tennessee. Temperatures will fall to the middle 60s by Sunday morning.
