If you like hot and humid August weather, you’re going to love Friday’s weather. Stick around because there’s more weather for you to love through the weekend! The heat and humidity will lead to a few afternoon and evening thunderstorms across the state today. Otherwise, it’s hot and humid, with afternoon high temps in the low to mid 90s.

A warm and muggy night is in store for Tennessee. Under clear to partly cloudy skies, overnight lows will only drop into the 70s. Watch for patchy fog, especially in areas that receive thunderstorms.

Saturday will feature more heat and humidity. Afternoon highs will top out in the lower 90s, and that heat could once again lead to a few afternoon and evening thunderstorms. Be safe in the heat.    

Sunday will be yet another hot and humid day, with a few afternoon and evening thunderstorms across the state. Relief from the heat will come in the new workweek, as the remnants of Hurricane Ida arrive, bringing rain and cloud cover that will keep temperatures down a bit.
