MM’s Level of Concern
MM’s Forecast for the Plateau
Local matters, especially when it comes to your weather forecast! Bringing you your local weather since 2017!
This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!
A disturbance passing through today is overperforming and producing some showers across the region today! I usually don’t like missing a forecast but I’ll take a miss on this one if it gets us some showers. These showers should help lower pollen levels today, as well.
The showers, unfortunately, won’t amount to much at all. The biggest benefit is that the clouds and higher humidity levels will at least keep us from getting drier today.
The next best chance for showers comes Thursday. Right now, that’s not looking too impressive but hopefully those chances will trend upward.
Our next chance for rain comes over the weekend. Right now, those chances look to be about 50/50. Let’s all hope, even though it’s the weekend, that those chances trend upward. Drought conditions continue to worsen across the plateau.
Threat Outlook
The greatest threat for severe storms for today is across the Upper Midwest. A regional tornado outbreak is expected there today (especially in the orange-shaded region).
