2:35 Update: Scattered storms are continuing to develop on the plateau. Nothing is severe but I’ll watch that. Also, the Storm Prediction Center has increased our threat for Saturday. I’ll do a special update tonight to address this.

I will issue special updates, as needed, concerning Saturday’s potential severe storm threat.

Habitat for Humanity’s Lunch on the lawn is Friday from 11:00-1:30 at the Cumberland County Community Complex in Crossville. Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 on the day of the event. You can buy tickets and learn more at https://cchabitatforhumanity.com/, at the Habitat office (329 McLarty Lane), or by calling 931-484-4565.

MM’s Wx Analysis

A complex of storms will drop in from the northwest and impact much of the Ohio Valley today. That complex of powerful storms will impact Virginia, as well. Elsewhere, it’s just a hot and humid day across much of the country, with a chance for afternoon storms.

Drought Conditions

This map updates each Thursday.

Drought conditions are on the worsening trend again across the state and will likely continue to do so in the coming weeks. Last week, 20% of the state was in drought. Today, 40% of the state is in drought. Thankfully, most of the drought conditions are on the lowest end of the scale of drought. That may change over the next few weeks if current trends continue and extended outlooks prove correct.

Last week’s map can be seen below, for reference.

Nationally, only 20% of the country is not in drought, which is similar to last week.

Thank You, Sponsors!

Help me welcome my newest sponsor, Risher Roofing! I first met them when they did work for us at Creative Compassion. They helped us put a roof on the home of a widow and their compassion, professionalism, and workmanship was so impressive. I’m so honored to have them as a sponsor!

Other important weather information will be shared when needed. This includes additional severe weather information, model data, drought info, hurricane info, and more. Some of these can be found as tabs to this page at any time.

MM’s Wx Analysis

Hot high pressure is in control of our weather today, keeping all major storm systems at bay. Severe storms will threaten areas shaded in yellow, while Tropical Storm Edouard moves inland this afternoon on the Texas/Louisiana border. That storm is expected to rapidly intensify today before moving onshore as a strong tropical storm or even cat 1 hurricane.

The moisture from Edouard can be seen below. As you can see, it stays well away from the plateau. The high pressure in control of us now will continue steering this moisture northwestward in the coming days.
