Nashville Braces for More Storms: Damaging Winds and Heavy Rain Expected
20 Aug
Summary
- Storms are expected to redevelop later today, Aug. 20.
- Damaging winds, heavy rain, and small hail are potential threats.
- Temperatures will remain near seasonal norms for the next 10 days.
Middle Tennessee, including Nashville, is anticipating a secondary outbreak of storms on August 20. Meteorologists from the National Weather Service have indicated that storms are likely to re-emerge later in the afternoon and evening.
These expected storms carry the potential for damaging winds and significant rainfall, with a particular focus on areas south of Interstate 40 and along the Cumberland Plateau. The window for this activity is estimated between 1 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Following this period of active weather, a more stable and less humid airmass is predicted. This shift will lead to consistently near-seasonal temperatures for the subsequent ten days, alleviating concerns about heat-related hazards.
