Nashvillians can look forward to a stretch of mostly sunny and warm days. The city woke up to a mostly cloudy morning today, with a sticky 87% humidity, but the skies are set to clear as the week progresses. Temperatures are expected to hover in the high 80s, with the week peaking at a near 90-degree Saturday, according to the latest forecast from the National Weather Service (NWS) in Nashville.

Starting today, with a minor 20 percent chance of scattered showers post 3 p.m., residents should anticipate mostly sunny skies and a pleasant high of 87°F. "A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 3pm," as noted by the National Weather Service. The prediction advises lightly blown winds from the east, which should morph into a calm evening breeze.

The upcoming evenings offer a consistent theme—partly cloudy to clear as night claims the sky; temperatures will gently dip to the mid-60s. A calm wind will carry the city through most nights before ushering in predominantly sunny mornings. Nighttime conditions are assuredly clear skies, with Monday and Tuesday evening lows forecasted around 61°F and 60°F respectively, whispers of northeast wind easing the transition into a calm evening.

For those with outdoor plans, the latter half of the week applauds such ambitions. Wednesday promises to be sunny, with a high again nearing 88, and the pattern persists through the week. With weather forecasts as stable as these, Nashville appears to be on a stretch of calm, requiring neither umbrellas nor heavy jackets—just shades and perhaps a light sweater for the night. With a calm wind at night becoming a gentle northern breeze by day, "Sunny, with a high near 89" is the simple song for Thursday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.
