NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Music City wakes to damp streets and low clouds this morning as another round of fall showers sweeps across Middle Tennessee. The air feels heavy and still — a sign of the warm, moisture-rich pattern holding over the region before a colder, drier push arrives later in the week.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, showers will continue through the morning before tapering by early afternoon. Temperatures climb toward 60 degrees Monday, but clouds will linger and keep conditions humid. Another batch of rain builds Tuesday afternoon, spreading north across the I-40 corridor into Clarksville, Murfreesboro, and Lebanon.
Widespread rain is expected Tuesday night into Wednesday as a stronger front moves in from the Mississippi Valley. Winds could gust up to 25 mph, and periods of moderate rainfall may lead to slick travel during the Wednesday morning commute. Totals between a half and one inch are likely before drier air moves in late Wednesday night.
Thursday marks a turning point — cooler and breezier but with partial sun returning. By Friday, high pressure dominates the region, delivering clear skies and ideal conditions for trick-or-treating. Temperatures near 64 degrees during the day will drop into the low 50s by sunset, perfect for layered costumes and outdoor events.
Long-range models suggest a chillier November pattern forming next week, with early signs of colder air settling across the Tennessee Valley — a seasonal reminder that winter’s edge is drawing near.
