Summer-like heat has settled into Middle Tennessee with our first 90 degrees of the season today! We continue to stay with the low 90s through the start of the work week. It's all thanks to a strong southerly breeze from an area of high pressure.

Soak up the sunshine this evening because a pattern change brings the return of rain chances later this week.

A cold front pushes through the mid-south, bringing scattered showers and thunderstorms late Tuesday, overnight Wednesday. There is a low chance of severe weather across the area with a Slight Risk (2 out of 5) over our northwestern counties.

The good news is there's multiple chances for beneficial rain this week. We could see 1 to 2 inches with the early week round, and then another 2 inches late week. Overall details are limited for the late week system, but we'll keep a close watch on it since it's Memorial Day weekend!
