Nashville is starting Thursday, October 15, with mostly cloudy skies and temperatures around 74 degrees, but the city is headed straight back into summer. The high could reach 93, with mostly sunny skies, a minimal rain chance and southwest winds up to 10 mph before a dry front flips the script Friday.
One More Hot Afternoon
Temperatures should climb quickly through the morning, reaching the upper 80s around midday and peaking in the low 90s during the afternoon. The National Weather Service says record highs are possible as unseasonable warmth lingers across Middle Tennessee.
Thursday night will stay mostly clear, with a low around 62 and southwest winds between 5 and 10 mph. Rain chances remain near zero for Nashville, making it a good evening for outdoor plans if you can tolerate October behaving like July.
Friday Brings Wind And A Big Drop
Friday will be a very different weather day, with a slight chance of rain showers, mostly cloudy skies and a high near 69.
The latest outlook is a modest but meaningful update to Wednesday's forecast, nudging Thursday's high higher while sharpening the timing of Friday's breezy cooldown. Friday night will turn mostly cloudy and chilly, with a low around 47.
Chilly Weekend, Then A Warmup
Saturday brings mostly sunny skies, a high near 62 and north winds around 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph. Saturday night could be the coldest stretch of the forecast, dipping to around 41 under clear skies.
Sunday looks sunny and calmer, with a high near 66, followed by mostly sunny skies and highs near 69 Monday and 71 Tuesday. The warmup continues next week, with Wednesday expected to reach about 76 under sunny skies.
