Storms ahead as new week begins

It is a very unsettled forecast that I bring you this week with showers and thunderstorms on the increase through the weekend and into the early and middle part of next week.


Lots of Gulf moisture is flowing northward into Tennessee and associated with Tropical Storm Fred is likely to bring some heavy rainfall amounts from some of these thunderstorms along with strong gusty wind and frequent cloud-to-ground lightning, which is common for August.


We have had several days recently with the heat index soaring to near 105 degrees but things can change quickly once we get into September and can you believe that it would not be unusual at all to have some scattered frost within two months or even see some snowflakes in three months.
