774 FXUS64 KOHX 071114 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 614 AM CDT Mon Sep 7 2026 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 614 AM CDT Mon Sep 7 2026 - Low rain chances for areas east of I-65 Monday afternoon. - Above normal temperatures with highs generally in the 90s expected through the week. - Dry Tuesday & Wednesday, but rain chances increase Thursday. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Tuesday Night) Issued at 1020 PM CDT Sun Sep 6 2026 Overall, a quiet night is ahead with mostly clear skies and light northerly winds. This does give a low chance for patchy fog tonight, particularly across the Plateau. For Monday, Middle TN remains between high pressure to the west and troughing over the east. A weak embedded disturbance gives a low chance for rain & storms for areas east of I-65 during the afternoon. But for most, it`ll be a dry Labor Day with temperatures a little cooler than recent days. But high temperatures in the low-90s will still run above normal. By Tuesday, the aforementioned high shifts back over the southeastern US and temperatures will warm in response. Look for highs on Tuesday to be in the upper-80s for the Plateau and into the low and mid-90s elsewhere. With the high overhead, it`ll be a dry day. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through next Monday) Issued at 1020 PM CDT Sun Sep 6 2026 The high remains in place on Wednesday, leading to another dry day and highs in the 90s for most of the area. We`ll have to wait until Thursday for a pattern change as troughing to the north suppresses the high and sends a front south. Moisture will be streaming into the area ahead of this front, and rain chances continue to trend up with each forecast package for Thursday and now range from about 40 to 60 percent. Forecast soundings don`t show much to be concerned with right now with very poor lapse rates and shear less than 30 knots. Low to medium rain chances will linger Friday and into the weekend. As far as temperatures go, they`ll cool some late week, but will still be above normal. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 614 AM CDT Mon Sep 7 2026 VFR conditions at most TAF sites this TAF period. Some patchy FG causing vsbys to drop to MVFR at CSV and SRB, but should clear out around 14z. The plateau also could see some SH and TS this afternoon and evening, but confidence is lower. Winds will be shifting from north to east as go into the overnight hours of the 8th. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
