.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Tuesday Night)
Issued at 1012 PM CST Sun Dec 21 2025

Surface high pressure currently centered over the eastern Ohio
Valley will continue sliding off to the east, which will set us up
with some return southerly flow by tomorrow. A weak surface
trough will combine with a northwest flow aloft to produce mainly
light showers across Middle Tennessee beginning tomorrow night and
persisting off-and-on through Tuesday night and maybe even into
Wednesday. This will not be an impactful weather system. QPF
values only add up to a few hundredths of an inch and we aren`t
expecting any convection. What will be more impactful is the
unseasonal warmth that looks to build over the region over
Christmas week.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday through next Monday)
Issued at 1012 PM CST Sun Dec 21 2025

High temperatures from Wednesday through Saturday will climb well
into the 60s across Middle Tennessee and even some 70s at many
locations. These will be near-record values. In fact, morning low
temperatures from Wednesday through Saturday will likely be warmer
than the normal high temperatures for those dates. A fast-moving
cold front will bring a quick shot of rain to portions of the mid
state on Friday, but a much stronger cold front will finally break
the warm pattern by Sunday so that more typical temperatures will
greet us by the start of next week. Still, it won`t take long for
warmer temperatures to build back in by New Year`s. Indeed, both
the 6-10 day and 8-14 day outlooks continue to favor above-normal
temperatures across Middle Tennessee.
