Weather breakdown for the week of March 17, 2025

This week, we will have some sunny spring days and a chance for some more rain showers and thunderstorms.

Although Tuesday started off chilly in the 30s to lower 40s, we will have warmer temps into the 70s during the day. It could be a little gusty Tuesday afternoon with wind gusts of 20-25mph.

Overnight lows will be in the upper 40s to lower 50s.

Wednesday will be very windy as we prepare for rain and possibly thunderstorms. Frequent wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph will develop, with gusts likely peaking over 40 mph in the afternoon for areas west of the Plateau, reports NWS.

The middle Tennessee area is under a Marginal Risk for severe storms Wednesday afternoon and evening, but experts say it does not look like the severe weather pattern we experienced over the weekend.

After the rain and possible thunderstorms on Wednesday, it will cool down again (those in higher elevations may even see some snowflakes on Thursday morning!)

Highs Thursday will reach only the 40s to lower 50s. Wind gusts are expected to be around 30mph.

Some showers are expected again Friday night into early Saturday. Rainfall amounts from this fast moving system are expected to be less than one quarter inch. The next active system will come in for Sunday into Monday. It promises to be a stronger system with
some thunderstorms (maybe strong) and gusty winds. Rainfall amounts are expected to range from one half to 1 inch.
