KEY MESSAGES

Updated at 1007 PM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

- Mainly light to moderate rain showers will continue into the early afternoon hours as the remnants of Isaias continues to move northeast.

- Drier and warmer conditions are expected into next week.

NEAR TERM

(Rest of tonight and Sunday) Issued at 1007 PM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

Low clouds and light/moderate rain showers continue east of the surface low now centered just west of the I-65 corridor. Some heavier rain showers have developed along/ahead of a trough axis extending SSE from the center of this system into Marshall county, AL. Through midnight between one quarter of an inch to one half of an inch of additional rainfall looks possible in portions of DeKalb, Jackson, and Moore/Franklin counties in Tennessee. This trough axis should shift northeast of the area after midnight.

As we go into Sunday morning, the surface low is forecast to move northeast into eastern Kentucky. Light to moderate rain showers could linger in NW Alabama between 5 and 8 AM, before ending associated with the southwestern portion of this remnant low. Further east, light to moderate showers should continue into the morning hours before ending in the early afternoon hours. Cloud cover should linger near and east of the I-65 corridor into the mid/late afternoon hours. Further west, sunny skies should return during the early afternoon hours. Where clouds disperse in the afternoon, highs should top out in the mid to upper 70s. Further east, highs will likely only climb into the upper 60s to lower 70s.

SHORT TERM

(Sunday night through Tuesday) Issued at 1007 PM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

Clear skies and light or calm winds are expected to be in place by tomorrow night. This should set the stage for widespread fog development overnight into early Monday morning. This fog could be dense and a Dense Fog Advisory may be needed during that period. Lows in the mid to upper 50s are expected.

Upper level ridging builds into the area Monday into the middle of the week. This and sunny skies should push high temperatures back into the mid to upper 80s on Monday.

LONG TERM

(Monday night through Friday) Issued at 1007 PM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

The upper ridging is expected to strengthen over the southeast into the middle of next week. The sunny skies and building upper level ridging will make for a very warm conditions with highs climbing back into the mid 80s to around 90 degrees.

An upper level low and associated longwave trough axis makes some slight progress pushing east into the upper ridge over the area towards the end of the week/weekend. However, over much of the area the surface and upper ridge remain stout. However, enough forcing aloft and moisture convergence does setup over much of Tennessee to produce some precipitation over that area. Our southern middle Tennessee counties could see some low end precipitation chances, but consistency is too low to include at this time. Most guidance does push a dry cold front through the area Friday or Friday night. This will bring cooler weather to to the area that is more seasonable into the weekend.

AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1149 PM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

Low ceilings and light showers will continue across the area for most of the night and into the morning. As such, MVFR conditions will prevail with brief periods of IFR to potentially LIFR as lower clouds filter through. Amendments will be made as necessary.

Conditions look to begin clearing after 18Z with clear skies building in for the afternoon and through the remainder of the TAF period.
