MM’s Wed 5-Day: Isaias to Impact Us on Saturday

Today is Wednesday, October 7, 2026

Please stay tuned for updates to the weekend forecast. The exact track of Isaias will determine our impacts here on the plateau. Confidence is increasing that we’ll see impactful weather from the system.

MM says…The latest data shows impacts from Isaias arriving on Saturday, rather than Saturday night. Please stay tuned for updates! If the storm continues to speed up, we may even end up with a nicer Sunday!

MM’s Weather Worries

MM’s Wx Analysis

High pressure is control of much of the country, with the most active weather being in the Gulf.

Guidance continues to trend toward a landfall of Isaias on the northern Gulf Coast somewhere near Mobile, Alabama. Guidance also continues to trend toward a stronger storm. It now looks like the storm will be a cat 2, perhaps cat 3, at landfall. Anyone with travel plans to the Gulf Coast (especially the Florida Panhandle) will need to check their plans and make sure you can still go there.

As for the plateau, our impacts will be determined by where that center tracks over TN. If we remain east of the center, our impacts will be higher. If we can get west of the center, our impacts will be substantially lower. I’ll keep an eye on things.

Special Tues Night Update for Tropical Depression

Good evening, folks! I just wanted to give a quick update on the newly-formed tropical depression in the Gulf. This system will eventually become a tropical storm and then a hurricane. In fact, this will be the first hurricane of the 2026 season. This is the latest we have ever gone without a hurricane in the Gulf or Atlantic.

The track forecast below is the first for this depression from the National Hurricane Center. There will be some adjustments to this, so stay tuned. However, models have been consistent and agreeable on where they think this system will go.

The track below shows the forecast for where the center will go. Impacts reach far out from the center. With this system, those impacts will reach out farther east from the center than they will to the west due to the lopsided nature of the storm.

The current forecast calls for it to become a cat 2, with winds up to 100 mph. The National Hurricane Center warns that the system could become stronger than that.

Anyone with interests along the Gulf Coast from New Orleans to Panama City needs to monitor this closely. If you have vacation plans to those areas you need to make sure you’re monitoring what emergency management agencies in the area you are headed to are saying. A Google search will likely help you out with that.

Meanwhile, I’ll keep a close eye on the possible impacts for the plateau from all of this! I’ll also have a full and fresh update to the forecast in the morning. You all take care and I’ll keep you posted!

An upper level disturbance will keep up some sinus and asthma issues on Wednesday, while pressure changes from Isaias in the Gulf will start kicking up some troubles by Friday (and especially Saturday).

MM’s Tues 5-Day: Watching the Gulf for a Storm

MM says…Better data from the system in the Gulf today will help me fine tune the weekend forecast, including more specific impacts that we may get from Isaias.

MM’s Wx Analysis

The most active weather is found along the northern Gulf Coast. With the development of “Isaias” and it’s expected track northward toward the coastline, they will remain the focus for the rest of the week. Meanwhile, high pressure dominates much of the rest of the country.

The National Hurricane Center now gives an area of low pressure a 90% chance of developing into a tropical storm by Thursday in the Gulf. That system will then track north. Any interests along the northern Gulf Coast should monitor this closely.

The models, as shown below, have been consistently showing a landfall somewhere from the New Orleans, Louisiana area to Mobile, Alabama. They have trended a bit stronger with the system, showing it becoming a strong tropical storm or cat 1 hurricane (confidence is increasing for a cat 1 hurricane). They then show the system tracking north toward our neck of the woods in Tennessee. This would bring increased rain chances for us by Saturday evening.

Today’s weather map shows high pressure is building in this week across much of the country. That will keep major storm systems away for the next several days.

The National Hurricane Center now gives an area of low pressure a 70% chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm by the end of this week in the Gulf. That system will track north. Any interests along the northern Gulf Coast should monitor this closely. As a side note, we may see impacts from this over the weekend but that just depends on the track of that low. I’ll keep a close eye on it!
