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.
If we keeping it a buck right now, we dry (and hot).
Not An Ideal Forecast
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.
Showers/Storms Possible This Afternoon/Evening, Above-Average Temperatures Stick Around
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%.
Daily Showers/Storms Possible Thru Saturday, Relief From The Heat In Sight?
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.
Rain Chances Thursday – Saturday, Above Average Temps Go Nowhere
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°.
Rain Chances Return Thursday, Temps Stay Hot
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.
Waiting For A Cooldown; Likely Dry Until Thursday
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.
Above-Average Temperatures This Week, Rain Chances Return Thursday
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.
Isolated Strong Storms This Afternoon/Evening, Heat Continues
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.
Great Labor Day Weekend To Be On The Water
A pool, lake, river, kiddie pool – anything to help keep cool. This Labor Day weekend will not be a fun one to just be outside.
Our Heat Advisory continues thru Saturday evening, with actual air temperatures in the upper 90s, possibly hitting 100° and heat index values in the 105-109° range.
