Nashville, Tenn. – Sunshine dominates Tennessee skies Tuesday, but don’t let your guard down — strong summer storms may disrupt plans by Thursday.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, Tuesday will be clear and calm, with highs near 84°F and light northwest winds. That tranquility won’t last. Storm chances rise sharply by late Thursday, with a 60% chance of afternoon thunderstorms potentially bringing gusty winds and brief downpours to Davidson County and areas along I-40.
Metro Nashville drivers should prepare for slick evening commutes Thursday, especially near construction zones and low-lying roads. Calm winds early in the week will give way to unstable, moisture-rich air masses pushing in from the southwest.
Here’s your five-day weather breakdown:
- Tuesday (June 10): Sunny, high of 84°F. Northwest breeze at 5 mph.
- Wednesday: Clear skies continue. High climbs to 88°F by afternoon.

If you’re planning outdoor activities or road travel later this week, monitor updates and avoid driving during peak storm windows Thursday and Saturday.
