Anyone else see the “Sundog” around the sun today? Reflection off ice crystals cause this phenomenon!

National Weather Service Skywarn is back to doing in person classes this year! If you want to learn more about the weather, safety and how to report severe weather, please attend a class to your nearest location!

It was awesome to meet with so many meteorologists and weather enthusiasts at severe weather awareness day put on by NWS Nashville!

3/15/25-9:10am HRRR Update The latest HRRR outlook from 9am-10pm. Most of the energy is holding in West TN until the afternoon hours as it breaks free and pushes east. This still does not rule out a random tornado producing cell that could develop in middle tn.

3/19/25-3:00pm update Storm timing for tonight… We are looking at right around 7-8pm for the storm to pass through. This looks to be a fast mover but some areas could see some strong storms out of this evening though our severe threat is low. Not much rain expected.

A Tornado Watch has been issued for all of west TN and parts of middle TN until 11pm tonight. Low level shear may pose a risk for some of these storms to rotate!

2/23/25-5:00pm Radar Update Storms are starting to fire to our south and west. Still nothing in our immediate area. But watching that storm in Memphis closely.

3/23/25-5:20pm Update Stay Alert! Even though this tornado warned storm is in West Memphis, its path is aiming in our direction. This could weaken before it gets to us but I am keeping a close eye on this one!

3/23/25-6:05pm Radar Update The Tornado Warned Storm has expired in Memphis and is now a severe thunderstorm warning. NWS says main threat still looks to be damaging winds and hail. Stay tuned!

3/13/25-7:00pm Radar Update Storms are still to our south and the severe storm has weakened that went through Memphis. Will be watching a line of storms dropping from NW Tennessee that could become severe later. Stay tuned!

3/23/25-8:00pm Radar Update Still not seeing any severe threats at the moment for us. Also still watching the line to the northwest slowing dropping down. That line may strengthen as it gets closer. Stay tuned!

3/23/25-9:00pm Radar Update The line to our northwest is slowly strengthening as it moves our way. Still nothing severe as of now. Time of arrival is around 10:30.

3/23/25-10:00pm Radar Update This will be the last bit of energy that pushes through tonight. As of now this is non severe. This will push through my viewing area over the next couple of hours so some of you may get something and others not so much. Stay tuned for updates.

3/23/25-10:30pm Radar Update The Tornado Watch has been dropped for all of TN as the storms look unimpressive as they move east. Some folks could still get a decent thunderstorm as this passes. I will still watch this closely as this passes.

3/23/25-11:00pm Update Other than a few noisy storms, I don’t expect much. The last bit of energy is going through our area right now. Some will see lightning, heavy rain and possible hail and others won’t see anything. This will be my last post unless something becomes severe.

4/4/25-1:45 Meso Update The latest Mesoscale discussion for West TN suggests some possible super cell development. This is for this evening into tonight. This energy looks to drive to storms more north than east and should stay out of our area. Either way,I will be here for you!

4/4/25-3:35pm update Currently tracking some developing severe storms south of Bolivar pushing northeast. These storms could affect our area so stay tuned!

4/5/25-12:00pm If you’re heading to Waverly Walmart turn around. The road to the entry is flooded and they’re letting no one through.
