Thursday, June 4, 2026: Knoxville and nearby Oak Ridge woke up to clear, cool skies, with morning temperatures parked in the upper 50s to low 60s. A ridge of high pressure is set to hold firm through the weekend, pushing afternoon highs into the low to mid 80s and keeping most periods dry.
Afternoon And Tonight
Sun wins the day this afternoon, with a high near 84°F and winds staying light to calm, so outdoor plans should roll along without much weather drama. Tonight brings mostly clear skies and a low around 61°F, and no watches or warnings are in effect in the forecast area.
Weekend Outlook
Temperatures climb into the upper 80s Saturday and Sunday, with humidity slowly edging higher. Even so, widespread rain is not expected through Sunday. Shower chances start to tick up Sunday night into Monday, with a better shot at showers and scattered thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday as more humid return flow develops. The exact timing is still a bit uncertain, so it is worth checking updates from the National Weather Service Morristown.
Plan Ahead
If you have outdoor plans lined up today through Sunday, you are in good shape. Skies should stay dry and winds light, which is about as friendly as early June gets. For events scheduled Monday or later, keep a backup plan in your pocket and check the forecast the morning of your event in case storms and localized heavy downpours try to crash the party.
