NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Strong to severe storms are once again possible across the NewsChannel 5 coverage area Thursday afternoon into the evening.
All of the area is under a Slight (2 out of 5 on the threat scale) for severe weather with all hazards possible.
Currently, the timing for strong to severe storms ranges from 2 p.m. Thursday until 10 p.m. Thursday, but we continue to monitor the timing as forecast models are still struggling some on timing and coverage of storms.
These storms will be ahead of a cold front that, once it moves through, will bring cooler temperatures and dry weather for the weekend.
As mentioned, all hazards are in play with this system. But, this is not expected to be anything close to the outbreak we experienced at the beginning of April. The tornado threat is very low. There is a chance for large hail, and a better chance for heavy downpours that could lead to isolated flash flooding. The primary threat will be damaging winds.
