Would you believe it if I said a cold front moved through overnight? This is technically correct, however temperatures will remain in the 90s today.

After a stormy Sunday, we’ve got a very calm and quiet week ahead in the Tennessee Valley.

Tonight will feel quite refreshing, with falling dew points and temperatures getting down to the

New data coming in from today seems to suggest trends in favor of the possibility of some stronger thunderstorm activity as we wrap up our weekend. First things first, as of this afternoon the entire Tennessee Valley is under a level 1 out of 5 risk of severe weather as issued by the Storm Prediction
