As Nashville residents prepare for the cold, the National Weather Service has shared an update on the upcoming weather. The forecast, updated on December 6 at 4:53 am CST, predicts sunny skies today with a high temperature around 37°F. A light wind will offer a small break from the cold weather.
According to the detailed forecast from the National Weather Service, the night is mostly clear with the temperature gently dropping to a low of around 22. The weekend promises to gradually warm with Saturday's sunshine pushing the mercury to an encouraging high near 51 degrees. This gentle trend, however, is about to swiftly change come Sunday afternoon with a 40 percent chance of showers unsettling the otherwise partly sunny sky.
By Sunday night the chance of precipitation jumps dramatically to 100 percent with showers expected to persist through Monday morning. Temperatures will climb to a high near 65 on Monday, despite the likelihood of showers mainly before noon. While some might find relief in the warmer temperatures, the constant shift in weather patterns could foster a sense of unpredictability for the week ahead.
As the new week begins, the weather seems to not settle down, with a 70 percent chance of showers on Monday night. The week's tumultuous weather continues with Tuesday offering the possibility of thunderstorms in the afternoon after a 50 percent chance of showers. The unpredictable bouts of showers carry on into Tuesday night, finally tapering off with only a 20 percent chance of precipitation before midnight. The aftermath will be witnessed on Wednesday with partly sunny skies and a more stable, yet chilly high near 43 degrees.
