MM’s Hourly Forecast

5-Day Forecast

MM says: We’ve got a beautiful Saturday, with low humidity and comfortable temps. Get outside for that game of golf, that hike, or even a day at the lake! Stormier weather begins moving in by later Sunday and especially on Monday.

6-10 Day Temp & Precip Outlook

The extended outlooks favor temps that are cooler than average and rainfall that is average. Normal highs and lows this time of year here on the plateau are 81°/61°. Average precip for this time period would be about 1.25″.

MM’s Weather Worries

MM’s Wx Summary & Analysis

This afternoon’s weather map shows a warm front to our south. That front will lift north tonight and Sunday, bringing a chance for a shower or storm to the plateau Sunday afternoon. That area of low pressure you see in Colorado will move east tonight and help make this front even more intense to our northwest on Sunday, with the potential for some significant severe weather focused on Missouri and Illinois. That front moves closer to our region on Monday, bringing widespread showers and storms. Some of the storms could be severe and some of the rainfall could be heavy. I’ll keep an eye on things!

MM’s Forecast Update for the Plateau

At 11:35, WxTAP radar shows a band of heavy rain moving northeast from southern Middle TN at this hour. This band of scattered showers and storms could produce gusty winds, torrential rainfall, and lightning. It will be impacting the plateau over the next couple of hours. A severe t-storm can’t be ruled out.

For perspective, by 12:15 it should be getting close to Sparta. By 12:30 it should be getting close to Crossville. Just keep an eye on that radar in case its speed changes.

The latest update from the Storm Prediction Center at 11:15 maintains a marginal risk for severe storms for our area through the afternoon. No watches are in effect and there are currently no warnings in effect for anyone in the state. Some storms have special weather statements issued for them for gusty winds but nothing is severe at this time. Hopefully we just get some rain!

I suspect that after this band of rain and storms coming in from the south moves in, our severe threat for the rest of the day will diminish (it’s already a low-end threat, even before these storms get here).

Be careful if out and about today. If you encounter one of these heavier downpours they can put down a lot of rain in a short period of time. I’ll keep an eye on things!

MM’s Level of Concern

Threat Outlook for the Plateau

MM’s Forecast for the Plateau

This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!

Southerly winds are bringing humidity levels up today!

That more humid air will combine with warm temps and frontal boundaries to bring us a good chance for scattered showers and storms today. Southerly winds today could gust to 30 mph at times. I’ll be monitoring the risk for severe storms this afternoon and evening, as well as the risk for flash flooding. Stay tuned for any special updates.

Showers move out by mid-morning Friday, giving us a decent afternoon and evening.

Saturday looks fantastic, with comfortable temps and low humidity.

By Sunday, the airmass changes once again, leading to a 50% chance for scattered showers and storms. More widespread showers and storms return for Monday.
