Nashville woke up to partly cloudy skies and mid-30s temperatures Saturday morning, and the sun is set to take over from here. Expect a bright but chilly day with a high near 39F, followed by the coldest night of this stretch as lows tumble into the mid-20s. Then comes the plot twist: a sharp warm-up rolls in early next week.
Sun Returns, Cold Night Ahead
High pressure is in control, delivering clear skies and light north-northeast winds around 5 to 10 mph. That keeps Saturday looking gorgeous but feeling brisk as temperatures climb from the mid-30s to around 39F.
Overnight, winds ease, and skies stay clear, setting the stage for the coldest night of the period with lows near 24F. Any untreated roads and sidewalks could re-freeze, so the late-night and early-morning crowd should take it slow. For the official forecast and an hour-by-hour breakdown, check the National Weather Service.
Big Warm-Up Early Next Week
Southerly flow returns Sunday and Monday, and that is when the weather script flips. Temperatures jump into the 60s by Monday and could push close to 70F on Tuesday before a Pacific system moves in.
Rain chances increase late Tuesday into Wednesday, with roughly a 50% chance Tuesday night, higher odds on Wednesday, and the potential for thunderstorms as the system swings through. The developing warm pattern first got a spotlight in our earlier windy warm-up, and the latest forecast discussion keeps that trend fully on track.
Plan Ahead
Commuters should brace for a very cold start Sunday, with lows from the upper teens to the mid-20s. Bundle up for early-morning outdoor plans and watch again for refreeze on any remaining wet spots.
By Sunday afternoon, things turn more comfortable under mostly sunny skies, with highs near 51F. You will still want a light jacket for the evening as temperatures slide back down.
There are no active watches or warnings for Nashville this morning, but if you have travel or outdoor plans later next week, it is worth keeping an eye on updated forecasts as the midweek rain and storm chances approach.
