.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Sunday Night)
Issued at 1025 PM CDT Fri May 8 2026

A shortwave is approaching the Ohio Valley late this evening and
will clip Middle TN into Saturday morning. This brings a very low
chance for isolated showers or sprinkles. But drier air continues to
be in place so any showers that do manage to develop are expected to
be light with forecast totals only a couple hundredths. Most will
stay dry through Saturday in what will be a beautiful start to the
weekend. Temperatures will continue their warming trend with highs
in the mid-70s to low-80s.

By Sunday, a large upper-level trough along with a cold front sets
up over the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley. This system allows for
medium to high rain and thunderstorm chances to enter the forecast
Sunday afternoon. Moisture values still don`t look great hovering
around seasonable normals so forecast rain amounts also aren`t
great. Most areas look to pick up no more than a quarter of an inch
with low probabilities of 10-20% of getting more than this. As far
as severe weather goes, still think that parameters aren`t favorable
with the better instability and shear remaining to the south.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday through next Saturday)
Issued at 1025 PM CDT Fri May 8 2026

The cold front will exit the area Monday morning, allowing for drier
and cooler air to move in behind it. Highs on Monday will be in the
mid-60s along the Plateau and into the low-70s elsewhere. Another
system does move through the Ohio Valley late Tuesday into
Wednesday, but it doesn`t look to mean much for us with just another
low rain chance with light rain amounts. It does help to keep
temperatures a little below normal for mid-May, but temperatures
will make their way back into the low and mid-80s by the end of the
week.
