Nashville is starting Thursday, October 29, with clear skies, calm air and temperatures around 50°F, but the city is headed for a sunny afternoon near 79°F. The warm, dry run continues through Friday before clouds gather for Halloween weekend. Rain looks more like a Saturday-night and Sunday problem than a trick-or-treat-hour washout.
Sunny 70s Hold Through Friday
Thursday will stay sunny with light south winds and a high near 79°F. Temperatures fall to around 50°F Thursday night, with fog possible Friday morning.
Friday morning fog should lift between 8 and 9 a.m., giving way to mostly sunny skies and another unusually warm afternoon near 81°F. Friday night turns mostly cloudy with a low around 57°F, and the National Weather Service says the continued dry pattern will worsen drought conditions in the near term.
Halloween Saturday Looks Mostly Dry
Saturday will be cloudy but mild, with a high near 78°F and only a slight daytime rain chance. The odds rise after 1 a.m. Sunday, when showers could begin, so Nashville’s current forecast keeps most Halloween evening plans on the drier side.
That timing is a notable refinement from the earlier outlook in Hoodline’s previous forecast, which showed a wetter weekend turn arriving sooner. Clouds may make the afternoon feel less bright than Thursday and Friday.
Sunday Brings The Wettest Stretch
Rain showers are likely Sunday, with a 90% chance of precipitation and a high near 76°F. Sunday night keeps a lower 30% chance of showers with temperatures settling around 54°F.
Monday should be mostly cloudy with highs in the lower 70s, while additional shower chances return Tuesday and continue into Wednesday. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Nashville, and expected weekend rainfall remains below an inch—welcome moisture, but not enough to erase the region’s worsening drought.
