Passing cloud cover at times with disturbances to our west, otherwise sunshine and mild temperatures. Our next best shot of rain doesn't arrive until early next week. Enjoy!

Other than passing clouds from disturbances off to our west, East Tennessee will remain dry through the end of the work week. We will also see a weak trend in rising highs, topping out near average (low 80s) by Friday. Check out our video forecast below for more:

A beautiful early afternoon across East Tennessee with mostly clear skies above and noon temperatures varying from the upper 60s to low 70s. Into mid afternoon, temperatures should notch up a few more degrees, topping out in the mid to upper 70s for many. Similar trends can be expected in the days to come, with slightly warmer air each day through the end of the work week. By Friday, we'll see highs return to the low and a few mid 80s.

The tropics are beginning to quiet down, at least this week, with hurricane Nigel working through the Central Atlantic. The good news is this system will veer north and east, with no impacts expected to the States.

High pressure has settled just north of the state and will stick around for some time. Looking at the 7-day QPF (quantitative precipitation forecast), no rainfall is expected now through the weekend. We could see very low end chances late Sunday into early next week, but up until that point, dry weather prevails. 

A very quiet week is ahead, with cool crisp starts, mild afternoon highs with plenty of sunshine, and patchy fog at times in the late overnight. Outside of this, temps will trend up a degree or two each day, finding the low to mid 80 by Friday afternoon (near to above average). Enjoy and have a good one!

Scattered showers or storms this weekend (mainly second half of Saturday into the first half of Sunday). Temperatures will remain mild, in the 70s, where dry air returns into next week. Watch our latest video forecast below for more details!

Good afternoon! Many are seeing high clouds working across the area. Further south, a few showers can't be entirely ruled out this afternoon over the Smokies and east into the Carolinas/Georgia. No worries for the valley though, as we remain under sunny to partly cloudy skies for the day and highs in the upper 70s to near 80 degrees.

To close out the work week tomorrow, sunshine returns in full force. Though temperatures might feel mild (around 80 degrees), the UV index will be high (8-9). As such, protect yourself with some sunscreen if outside for lengthy periods of time. 

Our streak of dry weather will come to a close into the weekend, as a cold front approaches from the west. This will allow increased cloud cover Saturday, and isolated shower or storm chances by the afternoon. A better shot of rain (30-40%) comes Saturday night into Sunday, followed by drier air with high pressure Sunday evening into the new work week. This will also give us a fresh blast of cooler air, before warming towards mid week.

Good morning! A pretty view over the Smokies this morning, as clouds are slow to dissipate here. Elsewhere, mostly sunny skies prevail across the valley and will remain in place through the rest of the day. 

Looking outside at temperatures compared to this time yesterday, we are definitely cooler. This will be reflected in highs as well, with most topping out in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees. A cool crisp "fall-like" feel can be expected to start Thursday off, with overnight lows tonight in the mid 50s for many. Yes, you may want to get a light coat ready for your Thursday morning attire.

High pressure will keep things dry through Friday, before shower chances return through the weekend. Larger scope though, Hurricane Lee is expected to work north over the next several days. As it gets into cooler waters it will weaken, but not before making landfall in the northeast. Maine will see the biggest impacts of this system, bringing strong winds and heavy rainfall late weekend. This will continue to drift northeast, exiting the USA by early next week. 

Cloud cover across the Plateau and Smokies will continue to dissipate this afternoon, leaving partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies. Mild temperatures and plenty of sunshine are then in store through the end of the work week. Enjoy it! Warmer air builds back in next week.

Quiet across East Tennessee now, with partly cloudy skies, but changes are coming. A cold front is slowly sliding east, bringing increased cloud cover and scattered showers/storms. No severe or hydro threat today, but pockets of heavy rainfall within thunderstorms is something to consider. Below is the latest satellite view, where thick coverage is in Middle Tennessee and west. Activity will push in, with periods of showers and storms this afternoon and evening- dissipating overnight. Following this activity will come cooler air. Clouds will be slow to exit tomorrow, but sunshine should reappear by tomorrow afternoon, where highs in the 70s can be expected- continuing through Friday.

Further ahead in time, the Climate Prediction Center suggests a turn back toward drier and warmer conditions is favored. This time period is late in the month, but something to  be mindful of as we move through the next couple of weeks. This is not to say no rainfall is in the forecast, but that the rainfall we pick up will generally average less than the norm for this time of the year. 

Showers and a few storms will work in the next couple of hours, pushing through overnight. Clouds then slowly clear out Wednesday, leaving us cooler and drier from then through Friday. A few showers then return to the forecast into the weekend. Have a good one, enjoy the beautiful weather we have after today, and don't get too excited about Fall just yet as we could have warmer air push back in during the 10-14 day period.

After some time off for a personal trip, we are back on the site! Seasonal conditions today will be followed by scattered showers or storms Tuesday, then pleasant conditions the remainder of the work week (Wed-Sat). Highs will cool into the 70s after tomorrow, with overnight lows in the 50s. Check it out below:
