092 FXUS64 KOHX 101108 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 608 AM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 604 AM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 - Very low shower and storm chances (less than 10 percent) today. Storm chances increase this week, peaking to 40 to 70% on Wednesday. Severe weather threat is very low. - High temperatures will be slightly above normal over the next week. Heat index values will reach around 100 for many areas through this week. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Monday Night) Issued at 1041 PM CDT Sat Aug 9 2025 Large area of high pressure remains over the area to end the weekend, leading to what will be another relatively quiet day across Middle TN. Light southerly flow will persist over the area, resulting in some low-level moisture advection. With high pressure overhead, rain chances for Sunday afternoon remain very low with CAMs showing just very isolated activity. Most of the area will stay dry as temperatures top out into the low and mid-90s for areas west of the Plateau. Heat index values will be the mid to upper-90s for this area as well. By Monday, rain chances will be on the rise as high pressure shifts to the southeast in response to an upper-level trough moving across the Plains. Southerly flow strengthens in response to this pattern shift, advecting more low-level moisture into the area. Monday`s rain chances increase to the 20-30% range with best chances being in the afternoon and evening with these dirunally-driven storms. Higher humidity will also mean that heat indices will be on the rise as well, with many locations across the western half of Middle TN getting close to triple digit heat indices. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through next Sunday) Issued at 1041 PM CDT Sat Aug 9 2025 Rain chances will steadily increase through mid-week as an overall troughing pattern continues before peaking on Wednesday to about 40- 70% as a trough tracks east through the Ohio River Valley. Steadily increasing moisture values will also keep heat indices high in the mid-90s to the low-100s at times. High pressure tries to build back over the southeast US Thursday and beyond, but daily low to medium rain chances will continue even into next weekend. Unfortunately, the heat will stick around, too, with highs each day in the 90s and heat indices continuing to rise into the low-100s at times. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 604 AM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 VFR conditions are expected at all sites through the period, except for brief late night fog at SRB and perhaps CSV. Otherwise skies will feature scattered cumulus clouds. Winds will be light, mainly from the southeast. Very isolated showers will form this afternoon, but prob for impacts at terminals is much too low to include in tafs. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
