Joel Barnes,

WBBJ 7 Forecast Update:

Most of West Tennessee picked up between 1-2″ of rain from Saturday night into Monday morning. Some light drizzle may continue this evening but for the most part, we will be dry overnight and dry again on Tuesday morning. Late in the afternoon or early in the evening on Tuesday the next system will begin to move through our area. The system will be a lot like the last one in as it will be bringing 36 hours or off and on rain without thunderstorms or severe weather. Another 1/2″ to 1″ of rain can be expected with some isolated 2″ totals being possible. This is great news for the drought situation across the region. Will the rain clear out though in time for Halloween and we will have the latest on a historic category 5 hurricane striking Jamaica coming up here.

THIS WEEK:

After a good soaking of rain this weekend some of the showers lingered into the day on Monday. Some light drizzle will be possible this evening but we should be dry for the most part until late in the afternoon on Tuesday. The clouds will be sticking around tonight and that should keep overnight lows out of the 40s with most of us dropping to the low 50s tonight. The winds will be light and come out of the north before turning up calm into the morning.

We will not be seeing much of the sun on Tuesday but it could peak through for a few hours on Tuesday before the next system gets here. Clouds will return for most of the day and stick around for the following 36-48 hours. The rain will move in sometime after 3pm and may not show up until sunset for some of us. Rain will be falling though Tuesday night and all day on Wednesday. Another 1″ of rain is coming for most of us with some seeing a little more and some seeing a little less. Highs on Tuesday will reach the mid 60s and Tuesday night lows will fall down to around 50° under the clouds and rain. The winds will come out of the southeast as the system begins to move on in during the day.

Rain will fall most of the day on Wednesday and expect cloudy skies all day as well. Highs will only reach the mid 50s under the clouds and Wednesday night lows will fall down to 40s. If the skies clear out some expect low 40s, if the clouds hang around, expect mid to upper 40s. The winds will come out of the northwest on the backside of the low pressure system as it moves out. The showers should begin to move out overnight into Thursday morning. Storms are not expected but a rumble of thunder or two will be possible.

Thursday morning some showers are expected to continue but most of us will dry by the mid to late morning. The clouds will stick around during the first half of the day before trying to break up and clear out some by the evening hours. Highs will reach the upper 50s as it will be a cool day. As the skies clear out, Thursday night lows will drop into the mid to upper 30s, a frost could be possible but a freeze seems unlikely at this time. The winds on Thursday will continue to come out of the northwest.

Halloween is looking a bit chilly but dry as well. We should see a mostly sunny day and a mostly clear night for Trick-Or-Treating! Highs on Friday reach the low 60s but expect temperatures to hang out between 45-55° during the evening hours. Friday night some clouds may try to move back in and that may keep us out of the 30s. The winds on Halloween will be light for the most part and come out of the west. The next system may show up this weekend but there is not a lot of confidence in the timing or severity of that one just yet.

THE WEEKEND:

There could be another system trying to clip up this weekend with the best chances for rain as of now coming in late Saturday into Sunday morning. We will be keeping a close eye on that one one the midweek system clears out. It does not appear to be as long lasting or as wet as the two systems before it but plenty could change in the forecast as we get closer to the weekend. Highs this weekend will be in the low to mid 60s for both days. Both nights should drop somewhere in the upper 30s or low 40s depending on the amount of clouds we see. The winds this weekend are forecast to come out of the southwest until the system passes, then back to the northwest as it moves out.
