.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Monday Night)
Issued at 1026 PM CDT Sat Aug 22 2026

A cold front has worked its way through Middle TN, and drier air is 
filtering in behind the front. Calm conditions are expected tonight 
with just patchy fog to keep an eye on. Confidence in fog is once 
again highest across the Plateau with any fog that does develop 
diminishing after sunrise. Upper-level troughing remains in place 
across the eastern CONUS, and in the wake of the front, temperatures 
on Sunday will cool a few degrees with high temperatures in the mid 
to upper-80s with dry conditions. Monday will be similar with 
highs still in the 80s and dry conditions prevailing.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through next Sunday)
Issued at 1026 PM CDT Sat Aug 22 2026

By Tuesday, the aforementioned trough shifts to the east and ridging 
sets up to the west. For Middle TN, this means northwest flow will 
persist through the end of the week, opening the door for a few 
shortwaves to move through the area. These shortwaves and an 
increase in moisture allows for daily low to medium rain chances to 
return to the forecast Tuesday through the end of the week. 
Temperatures will also warm a few degrees, but high temperatures in 
the low-90s will still be seasonably normal.
