FRIDAY WEATHER: ☀️ We finally get a break from the endless rain chances!
Sunrise/Sunset: 6:18/9:00
Normal Temps: 83°/61° (Records: 91° in 2001, 47° in 2022)
Year-To-Date Rainfall: 32.8" (Normal: 29.2")
DETAILS: Surprise! No chance of rain today! It’s the first time in well over a week rain hasn’t been in the forecast, and what a nice change it’s going to be. But it’s about to get hot! Today won’t be too bad; we’ll see temperatures in the mid 80s, dropping into the low 60s tonight — just about normal for this time of year. But we’ll become progressively warmer as the weekend goes along, getting to near 90° tomorrow and pushing into the low 90s on Sunday. There’s no threat of rain this weekend.
NEXT WEEK: We may be even slightly hotter next week than we are this weekend, as temperatures push into the low to mid 90s Monday through Thursday. A very slight chance of isolated thunderstorms returns to the forecast Tuesday afternoon, and we’ll see slight rain chances each afternoon the rest of the week, as a typical summer pattern takes hold. Nighttime lows will hover around 70°, so it’s going to be muggy. The National Weather Service’s weather forecast office in Morristown has published a Hazardous Weather Outlook for next week, in which it says that heat index values will exceed 100° across the Tennessee Valley beginning Sunday and continuing through the end of the week.
