MM’s Monday 5-Day

Monday May 13, 2024

Record High/Low for today: 91/33

On this day in 1999, Crab Orchard reported marble to golfball-size hail that covered the ground three inches deep on I-40! One residence measured seven inches of accumulated hail! Over a half dozen wreckers were sent to clear the accidents on the interstate. Traffic was backed up for 12 miles to the Roane County line. There were four injuries. Snow plows were used to clear the hail off the interstate.

Drought Monitor

The Drought Monitor is updated each Thursday. The map below was updated on Thursday, May 9.

I think it’s safe to say that all drought and dry conditions will be erased in TN in next week’s update! This map is based on data up to Tuesday and does not include our rain from Wednesday & Thursday.

Proud to research & teach meteorology at Tennessee Tech University!

Have a great day and keep lookin’ up!
