Widespread frost and a few spots with freezing temperatures again tonight. Dry the next few days and a little warmer. Rain chances return Wednesday evening. Some thunder is possible, but no severe weather is expected at this time. Widespread freezing temperatures expected next weekend. Well, we cleared the first frost of the season, baby! Yeah, most everybody stayed right above the line! But down in the sheltered spots and the valley floors, honey A couple little places hit thirty degrees on the dime! Now the sun comes up and we moderate a bit Watch for the fog on the morning commute! Global Forecast System model throwing a fit Adjusting on up while the European model stays cute! Oh, the cold snap is backing off, check the story! Yeah, temperatures rise and we take the lead! The sun is shining out in all its glory! Whoa-oh! That is the rock and roll forecast we need! Wednesday evening comes a-rolling around Mid-Mississippi low pulling into the game! Mid-level lapse rates healthy and sound A little bit of shear, but no severe to name! No surface instability to spark the show Just a few rumbles of thunder in the night! Then a second shot of energy down below Going to drop us to the twenties—out of sight! Oh, the cold snap is backing off, check the story! Yeah, temperatures rise and we take the lead! The sun is shining out in all its glory! Whoa-oh! That is the rock and roll forecast we need! Oh, the cold snap is backing off, check the story! Yeah, temperatures rise and we take the lead! The sun is shining out in all its glory! Whoa-oh! That is the rock and roll forecast we need! Yeah, watch out for next weekend, the twenties are coming back! Catch you on the morning commute!

SHORT TERM
(Rest of today through Monday) Issued at 1017 AM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
Well, we got our first widespread frost of the season out of the way.
Most everybody remained at or above freezing, however a few spots did register 30, which tells me there were some 20s around Middle TN in our normally cooler/sheltered spots and valleys.
The sun is out in all its glory and while it'll be cool, a fantastic fall day is underway.
Expect more chilly temperatures and frost tomorrow with a couple of spots reaching freezing or just below again.
Fog near bodies of water will also be prevalent, so keep this in mind for the Monday morning commute.
As we move into the start of the week, temperatures will begin to moderate a bit.
Afternoon highs will be several degrees warmer Mon-Wed and morning lows a touch warmer, too.
LONG TERM
(Monday Night through next Sunday) Issued at 1017 AM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
Confidence is growing that our next weather maker will be in here Wednesday evening.
The longwave pattern over the eastern half of the US will allow for the first of (potentially) two lobes of energy to develop a surface low over the mid-Mississippi Wednesday afternoon.
The question is, where will this sfc low track?
Yesterday, the GFS had the low near Memphis.
Today, it's much further north and much more in line with the Euro solution.
The catch is, it's still not as far north as the Euro continues to show it, so I have to imagine the GFS isn't done with its adjustments on this system.
In the end, showers and a a few rumbles of thunder will become possible Wednesday evening for most of Middle TN. There is some shear with this system and mid-level lapse rates are healthy, but sfc instability is greatly lacking.
For this reason, I'm not concerned about severe weather at this point.
The trajectory of this upper system is going to dictate what happens after Wednesday evening.
Because of the more southerly track the GFS has, additional showers are being shown Thursday and Thursday night as a second lob of energy rounds the base of the longwave pattern.
The Euro does not have this, which is why NBM PoPs for the second half of the week aren't as high as they otherwise would be. So, we'll have to see what the next couple days of model runs do with this system.
What is agreed upon is the additional shot of cold air behind this system.
Widespread 20s look increasingly possible for morning lows next weekend.
