This morning, Monday, February 9, 2026, Nashville is waking up to clear skies and a chilly 34°F at Nashville International Airport. The chill will not stick around for long, with a sharp warm-up on deck, highs near 68°F today and even warmer on Tuesday, a jump of roughly 15–20 degrees above what is typical this time of year. Sunshine should dominate, and light southwest winds will keep conditions calm through the afternoon.
Afternoon And Tuesday
Sunny skies hold firm today with a high near 68°F before temperatures slide back into the low 60s late this afternoon. On Tuesday, the pattern turns even milder, with readings expected to push into the low 70s. Southwest winds of 5–10 mph could gust near 20 mph, and a slight chance of evening rain showers, about 20%, may develop after 5 p.m. These timing and temperature details come from the forecast, according to the National Weather Service in Nashville.
Tuesday Night Into Midweek
A frontal system arrives Tuesday night, bringing likely rain showers and a low near 44°F. Most areas are expected to see only light totals, under a quarter inch, before the precipitation tapers late Wednesday. Wednesday turns cooler with a high near 56°F and only a small chance of lingering showers in the morning. There are no watches or warnings in effect for Davidson County at this time.
Weekend Outlook
Rain chances creep back in toward the end of the week, with low chances Friday building to likely showers on Saturday and a higher risk of showers and thunderstorms Saturday night. Forecast confidence drops on the exact timing and rainfall totals, and forecasters note model disagreement on just how wet the weekend will be.

What This Means For Your Plans
Make the most of the mild stretch today and Tuesday, but keep a light jacket handy for evenings when temperatures dip into the 40s. Consider securing loose outdoor furniture ahead of Tuesday's gustier periods, and allow extra time for commutes Tuesday night into Wednesday if you expect to encounter wet roads. Updates will follow if any watches or warnings are issued.
