Nashville, TN – Middle Tennessee residents can expect a weekend of sharp temperature swings, with chilly morning lows and clear, sunny afternoons continuing through Sunday.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, Saturday morning temperatures dipped as low as 33°F in some areas, with highs rising to between 56°F and 63°F by afternoon. The pattern will repeat Sunday, with early lows forecast between 34°F and 43°F before warming to a pleasant 69°F to 75°F range.
Despite the frosty mornings, no precipitation is expected, and skies will remain mostly clear, offering ideal conditions for outdoor activities once the sun rises. However, the early-morning cold may cause sensitive plants to freeze, especially in rural and suburban areas. Gardeners are advised to cover vulnerable vegetation overnight.
This weekend’s temperature swings are typical for mid-April in Tennessee, where spring transitions can bring broad daily temperature ranges. Drivers should be cautious of possible frost on windshields during early travel hours.
Nashville’s next significant weather change is expected early next week, with a slight warmup and increasing cloud cover. Residents should continue to monitor updates from the National Weather Service at weather.gov/nashville for the latest advisories.
