Memphis is waking up Monday around 42 degrees under clear, calm skies, but patchy fog could briefly slow the morning. Sunshine should take over after 7 a.m., sending temperatures toward 69 degrees before the afternoon eases back into the 60s. The bigger weather story is the quick swing from mild midweek afternoons to chilly nights by the weekend.
Fog Clears For A Sunny Monday
Fog may linger until about 9 a.m., with no rain in the forecast and essentially no wind to start the day. Skies should turn sunny through the morning, with temperatures climbing through the 50s and 60s before peaking in the upper 60s. Monday night will stay mostly clear with a low near 47.
Tuesday follows the same general script: patchy fog before 8 a.m., then sunshine and a high near 70 with only a light southwest breeze. The latest National Weather Service forecast lists no watches, warnings or advisories for the Memphis area.
Veterans Day Starts Warm With A Slight Chance Of Night Showers
Veterans Day should bring mostly sunny skies and a high near 72. A slight chance of showers or thunderstorms is forecast Wednesday night. Outdoor plans have a decent daytime window.
Late Week Brings Wind And Chilly Nights
A cold front will bring a noticeable cooldown Thursday, when Memphis reaches only about 59 degrees under mostly sunny skies. North-northwest winds around 10 to 15 mph could make the day feel sharper than the thermometer suggests. Friday stays sunny, with a high near 53.
The weekend remains dry and bright, but Friday night could fall into the mid- to upper 30s before Saturday rebounds to about 57. Forecasters are watching Saturday morning for the season's first widespread freeze. The colder outlook is a sharper turn from Hoodline's Sunday update, which focused on fog and the first warm-up of the week.
