NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Nashville wakes up to another crisp October morning as sunshine dominates Tennessee skies heading into the weekend. For families tackling Halloween decorations or planning fall festivals, the stretch through Saturday promises picture-perfect conditions with highs in the mid-80s and clear skies.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, Thursday through Sunday will stay mostly sunny with highs near 86 to 88 degrees. Southeast winds remain light, which means safe, smooth travel across I-40, I-65, and city roadways. Anyone planning outdoor activities, from pumpkin patch visits to high school football games, will find ideal fall weather through the weekend.
Friday and Saturday will bring nearly identical patterns—bright skies, warm afternoons, and cool evenings dropping into the low 60s. Sunday continues the sunny spell with a high near 88 before clouds begin filtering into the region by nightfall.
The first real shift arrives Monday, when a 30 percent chance of showers builds after midday. Southeast winds will increase to 10 mph, possibly impacting morning commutes and outdoor events. By Tuesday and Wednesday, shower and thunderstorm chances rise to 40 percent across Davidson County and surrounding areas, creating slick spots on major interstates.
Residents should take advantage of the dry stretch now to finish yardwork, decorate for Halloween, or enjoy early fall festivals. Keep rain gear handy for the start of next week, as storm chances may expand into midweek.
Warnings remain limited, but forecasters advise monitoring updates as the rain threat develops.
