NEAR TERM

(Today) Issued at 327 AM CST Sun Nov 30 2025

Light rain continues to slowly push east across the area early this morning ahead of an approaching cold front that will bring colder temperatures to the area later today. Rain should clear the local area by late this morning and gradient flow will increase slightly as the front moves through the area. Wind gusts will not be quite as strong as what we saw yesterday but gusts up to 15-20mph will be possible at times. With the shift to northwest flow, daytime highs will be limited to the upper 40s/lower 50s behind the front and even colder air arrives tonight. Be sure to grab a jacket if headed outdoors today or this evening!

SHORT TERM

(Sunday through Tuesday night) Issued at 1000 PM CST Sat Nov 29 2025

Behind the front, temps will be noticeably colder as we go into tonight/Monday morning. Temperatures in the mid to upper 20s combined with a little bit of wind at 5-10 mph will lead to apparent (feels-like) temperatures in the upper teens to low 20s Monday morning. Those heading outside in the early morning on Monday should dress appropriately for the cold temps.

On Monday, our attention will turn to the next incoming weather system as mid-level troughing deepens over the MidWest before swinging across the TN Valley Monday night into Tuesday. At the sfc, low pressure will develop in the northern Gulf and progress northeastward across the FL panhandle into central GA and the Carolinas. As a result, increasing rainfall chances will overspread the area Monday afternoon from the south, peak Monday night at 95%-100%, and exit to the east late Tuesday morning into early Tuesday afternoon. Moisture will surge northward in southerly flow with a set up more favorable for increased precipitation rates and total rainfall amounts. Forecast 30 hour totals look to be between 1.0-1.75 inches. Reasonable worst case scenario would be localized spots seeing up to 2.5-3.0 inches of rainfall, primarily in areas south of the TN River. We will keep an eye on the forecast for any potential for frozen precipitation but at this time the forecast remains all rain.This would likely only occur if precip moved in early on Monday then currently forecast. It will be cold again with temps in the 40s throughout the rainfall event but by the time temps drop below freezing on Tuesday night any precipitation should have already exited the area. Chances for thunderstorms remain low.

LONG TERM

(Wednesday through Saturday) Issued at 1000 PM CST Sat Nov 29 2025

Wednesday and Thursday will remain dry and chilly with high and low temps hovering around 10 degrees below normal for early December. Morning temps in the mid 20s to low 30s can be expected with afternoon highs around 50 degrees. The next weather system is expected late in the week which will be the next shot at any potential rainfall and/or wintry precipitation. Ensemble scenarios vary in terms of timing and strength of this system so the finer details of the forecast remain to be seen but it will definitely be something to keep an eye on in the coming days. Stay tuned.

AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1224 AM CST Sun Nov 30 2025

Light rain has resulted in MVFR conditions in some locations across the area and further reductions to cigs are forecast through much of the TAF period. Rainfall will continue to push east of the area later this morning but IFR to perhaps LIFR cigs are forecast to move in during that time. Conditions should slowly improve late this afternoon into this evening. Have maintained southerly wind shear of 40kts at 2kft early this morning. Amendments may be needed to account for category changes as the rain continues to push through the area this morning.
