Memphis is waking up to clear skies and temperatures in the mid-40s Saturday, with a crisp north breeze making it feel like fall finally remembered the assignment. The day stays dry and partly sunny before a foggy, chilly night sets up a warmer stretch.
Saturday Brings Sunshine, Then Fog
Saturday’s high will reach about 57 degrees, with northerly winds of 5 to 10 knots and no rain expected, according to the National Weather Service. Temperatures will ease back through the afternoon, so the warmest part of the day may arrive before evening plans get started.
Areas of fog are expected after 11 p.m. Saturday, with the overnight low dropping to around 36 degrees. Sunday morning could begin foggy as well, but the haze should clear before 9 a.m. and give way to sunshine and a high near 66.
Warmup Runs Through Tuesday
The warmer pattern takes over quickly, with sunny skies and highs near 68 Monday and 69 Tuesday. Fog may return during the early-morning hours each day, but afternoons should be bright, dry and comfortable for errands, outdoor plans or one last patio season push.
The broader Mid-South has a better chance of freezing temperatures Sunday and Monday mornings, especially north of Memphis. Within the city, forecast lows of 36 and 37 degrees should keep conditions close to freezing without sending Memphis into a hard freeze.
Veterans Day Stays Warm With A Small Shower Chance
Wednesday, Veterans Day, should be mostly sunny with a high near 70, though there is a 20% chance of rain showers after noon. A 20% chance of showers is forecast Wednesday night.
Thursday brings cooler weather, with temperatures possibly reaching about 63 degrees. No watches, warnings or advisories are in effect for the Memphis area.
