A Tornado Watch remains in effect this afternoon. We are seeing the atmosphere starting to de-stabilize again after the first round of storms, and we may see some peaks of sunshine soon in parts of the mid-state. I wouldn’t be surprised if this Tornado Watch isn’t extended this afternoon for some, and those in South Central Middle Tennessee should be weather-aware as storms cross the state line.
Timing still looks to be later this afternoon.
This Afternoon
Showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm before 1pm, then showers and thunderstorms likely between 1pm and 2pm, then showers and possibly a thunderstorm after 2pm. Some of the storms could be severe. High near 77. South southwest wind around 20 mph, with gusts as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
Tonight

New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.
