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

(Today) Issued at 211 AM CDT Sun Oct 11 2026

2 am surface observations show the remnant low of Post Tropical Cyclone Isaias moving through NE Alabama. Counterclockwise winds can be seen around the remnant low across the TN Valley along with lingering low clouds and light rain. Through the the first half of the day we will remain plagued with low clouds and light rain as the low slowly pushes NE. As we move into the afternoon hours clearing will occur from west to east as we both lose proximity to the low and dry air filters in behind the system. Despite being displaced from the actual low, the tight pressure gradient will keep winds slightly elevated with gusts up to 20 MPH. By evening, skies should be mostly clear and much drier air in place. Winds will begin to subside, setting us up for a clear and calm night, which will put us on high alert for fog formation.

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

(12Z TAFS) Issued at 541 AM CDT Sun Oct 11 2026

IFR ceilings will likely continue through the mid morning. Conditions look to clear from west to east starting around 18Z with VFR conditions in place at both terminals by early afternoon. We will be watching the overnight hours for fog development with future TAF issuances providing more detail on timing and intensity of any fog.
