Our average high for September 15 is 83°. We passed that at 9a this morning.
Our forecast high is 100°, which would break the daily record high of 98° set in 1927. If we do hit triple digits, it would also be the second latest instance of us doing so (latest is September 21, which we did in 2022).
While Cam Ward did not say this exact quote, he is probably thinking it.
I do have my football takes, but I’ll save that for another day, perhaps a rainy day – which we don’t have any of.
This will not be a long blog, because there is not much to talk about except bad news.
The Titans are back, so that’s good news at least. The bad news is that it’ll be a hot one. Temperatures will be near 90° by kickoff, in the shade. We’ll climb into the mid 90s by this afternoon. Sunscreen and water will be your friend.
Today, we remember and will never forget the lives that were tragically lost twenty-five years ago.
Most of today will be dry, and some may stay dry throughout the whole day.
Scattered showers and storms will be possible later this afternoon and evening, with chances around 30-40%.
Welcomed showers have started early this morning, as local crunchy grass rejoices.
These showers will likely come to an end before lunch when we get a break in the action.
Then, additional showers and storms will be possible later this afternoon and evening. Overnight, the Storm Prediction Center added us to a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds within 25 miles. This is just to account for any storms that may briefly pulse up and reach severe criteria (58mph+ winds). Not expecting any widespread issues, no tornado concerns.
We stay dry today while we continue to bake in the heat.
There’s a Heat Advisory in effect for Davidson (Williamson excluded, but it’ll still be hot) from 11a to 8p today.
High temps in the mid 90s with dewpoints in the upper 60s will send heat index values near 105°.
Could be better but certainly could be worse kind of weather today.
Highs in the low 90s with dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s. Perhaps a stray shower this afternoon but we’ll likely stay dry.
More of the same for Wednesday, copy + paste from above.
For those of you that do have the day off, it won’t be the worst weather to get outside. Highs in the low to mid 90s and dry (although it’s not impossible we see a quick shower around sunset). Not a bad day for the pool. Or to sit inside in the A/C. But also, S/O to essential workers.
Temperatures won’t be as hot as the past several days, but they’ll still be above average.
Our average high is 85-86° this time of year, and unfortunately, we won’t even sniff the 80s for high temperatures.
Some of us will stay dry today, while others could see a strong storm.
Overnight, the Storm Prediction Center introduced us to 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds within 25 miles. We are not included in any probabilities for hail/tornadoes.
