News Summary

Nashville is bracing for severe weather this weekend, with the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency issuing alerts for two waves of storms. The first wave is expected late Friday night into Saturday morning, followed by a second wave Saturday afternoon. Residents should prepare for heavy rainfall, potential flooding, and high winds, urging everyone to get their emergency kits ready and stay safe indoors during the storms.

Severe Weather Alert: Brace Yourselves, Nashville!

Here in Nashville, we’re gearing up for what promises to be an intense weekend as severe weather is on the horizon. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) and the Nashville Fire Department are sounding the alarm, reminding us all to prepare for two waves of serious storms. Things are about to get wild late Friday night and into Saturday morning, with a second round rolling in Saturday afternoon and evening.

What’s the Scoop on the Storm?

The areas of Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky are currently sitting under a Level 3 out of 5 risk for severe weather. That’s no joke! We can expect considerable rainfall, with Saturday bringing the big stuff. Flooding is the main headline here, so let’s talk about how to stay safe and keep our loved ones secure.

Get Your Emergency Kit Ready

TEMA has a checklist for all of us to follow. First up, it’s time to test those weather radios! Make sure your devices are charged, especially your phones, and have emergency alerts set up and ready to go. Plus, if you haven’t already, gather that emergency kit. The Fire Department tips include:

  • Flashlights and extra batteries to light the way when the power goes out.
  • A battery-powered or hand-crank radio to stay updated on the latest weather news.
  • A first-aid kit and a manual can opener for good measure.
  • Water – at least one gallon per person per day for several days!
  • Stock up on non-perishable food, prescription meds, and even personal hygiene items.
  • Keep your important documents in a waterproof bag, like your driver’s license and insurance info.
  • Don’t forget work gloves, duct tape, sleeping gear, and basic hand tools.

Timing is Everything

As for when these storms will hit, the first round is expected to push through around midnight on Friday and reach its peak between 2 and 4 a.m. The second wave will follow suit from around noon to midnight on Saturday. With the forecast predicting a high chance of storms—around 90%—you might want to plan to hunker down and stay safe indoors.

Rain, Rain, Go Away?

When it comes to rainfall, forecasts are suggesting Nashville could see anywhere from three inches or more, with a 10-40% chance of that actually happening. Be warned, heavy rainfall will make rivers and small streams rise quickly, leading to possible flooding on our roadways. The weather for Friday is expected to be warm, with highs hitting near 81°F. But don’t get too comfy—stormy weather is afoot!

Wind and Other Factors to Consider

Outside of the storms, winds could gust up to 40 mph on Friday. It’s not just rain you need to worry about; expect damaging winds, large hail, and even tornadoes are a possibility. Areas west of Interstate 65 are flagged as having an enhanced risk for severe storms, while those east hold a slight risk. Better safe than sorry, people!

Final Thoughts

As we gear up for this rollercoaster of weather, the best thing to do is stay informed and prepared. Make sure you have a reliable way to receive weather alerts, especially during the nighttime hours when most of these storms are expected to pack a punch. Let’s all take this seriously, keep ourselves safe, and check in on our neighbors. It’s going to be a bumpy ride this weekend—let’s weather it together!
