The city of Nashville woke up to thick fog and high humidity early this morning, with the National Weather Service reporting near zero visibility and a dew point to match the air temperature – both standing at a sticky 61 degrees Fahrenheit. According to the latest advisory, the fog is expected to clear by mid-morning, but the day holds a 30 percent chance for showers and thunderstorms between 3pm and 5pm, the calm of the morning giving way to a light breeze.

Nashville residents should prepare to grab their umbrellas as the likelihood of precipitation ramps up to 80 percent tonight. Showers and a possible thunderstorm are anticipated after the sun dips below the horizon, with overnight temperatures maintaining a mild 65 degrees. That east wind will shift, picking up slightly to arrive from the southwest.

The wet weather is set to continue into the workweek, with Monday forecasted to bear the brunt of showers and potential thunderstorms before noon. The unsettled pattern persists with an equally robust 80 percent chance of more rain, and the mercury is again slated to hover around 80 degrees, aided by a southerly breeze.

Looking to Tuesday, the mix of sun and storm clouds will not quite relinquish its grip on Nashville. The city can anticipate a dance of intermittent sunshine and bouts of rain through mid-week. The National Weather Service predicts a 60 percent chance for showers and thunderstorms on Tuesday afternoon, with the winds still intent on gusting as high as 20 mph. Shower chances continue into the night, spiking to 70 percent after darkness falls.

Nashvillians might get a brief respite later in the week, with the forecast hinting at a reduced chance for showers by Friday, just a 20 percent likelihood under mostly sunny skies. And for those looking forward to a sunny weekend, Saturday promises clear skies with a comfortable high of 72 degrees, signaling a potential reprieve from the stormy patterns of the week.
