After quite a stormy morning across the Tennessee Valley, our weather is about to calm down just in time for the weekend. Many locations in the area observed more than 3 inches of rain since it all began yesterday. Thankfully, the moisture is on its way out. Temperatures will stay in the 60s this afternoon […]

The mid afternoon update from the NWS Storm Prediction Center maintains a Level 2 risk of severe storms for about the northwestern 40% or so of our viewing area, roughly along and northwest of the Natchez Trace Parkway give or take a few miles. Folks south and east of there remain in a Level 1

If you’re feeling groggy after the time change yesterday, you’re not alone! It’s a slow start to the week, but hey, at least we’ve got plenty of sunshine to perk us up and get us through the day! Aside from a few clouds from time to time, today’s weather will be nice and calm, with

That cold front sure knows a thing or two about bad timing. It seems like we’ve been in this little stretch of warm Spring-like weather, just for the WEEKEND of all times to come crashing down. What luck, huh? We’ve been stuck in the 50s (and even 40s) throughout the Valley today, and we’re only

Within our viewing area, the only NWS climate-record-keeping type reporting stations we have are located on the Alabama side

While the parent storm probably won’t strike without warning, individual lightning bolts are random and

This week has been deemed as Severe Weather Awareness Week for the state of Tennessee. Alabama’s SWAW was at the beginning of the month (for the first time ever, and that’s why we weren’t fully ready LOL). This is a week set aside every year just before the heart of the spring severe weather season

Quiet weather is still in place early this Thursday morning across the Tennessee Valley with high pressure still firmly entrenched across the Southeast. Temperatures are mostly between the mid to upper 30s and the lower 40s this morning, although the sheltered valley areas around Pulaski, Lewisburg, and Hohenwald have slipped down just below freezing, making
