Chilly Days Ahead for Memphis in December!
Memphis, Tenn. – Grab those cozy coats and warm scarves, folks! This Thursday morning is kicking off with some decidedly frigid temperatures, and itโs definitely a morning for the heavy outerwear. The skies are mostly clear, which means weโre in for a bright start, but donโt let that sunshine fool youโit’s cold out there!
What to Expect Today
Temperatures in Memphis are starting off quite low, dipping down to about 38ยฐF this morning. As we move into the afternoon, however, we can look forward to a bit of a warm-up. The mercury is expected to rise into the low to mid-50s, making for a pleasant, albeit cool day. Itโs perfect weather for a brisk walk or enjoying a hot cup of cocoa!
Oh, and hereโs some good news: thereโs a 0% chance of rain today, which means you can leave your umbrellas at home. With winds coming in from the south at about 5 to 10 mph, itโll feel just a touch warmer than that brisk start, so if you’re out and about, just make sure to enjoy the clear skies!
Looking Ahead
As we look a couple of days ahead, it seems like the chilly fun isn’t over just yet! Temperatures will remain in the 50s through Friday, with a potential for some warming up. But wait, the weekend is where things get a little interesting!
On Saturday, we might need to prepare for some possible rain as a weather front rolls in. It looks like we could see some stray showers popping up into Sunday, which will be a change from the dry conditions weโve been enjoying. So if you have weekend plans, remember to pack the raincoat just in case Mother Nature decides to sprinkle some water on your festivities!
Staying Prepared
As temperatures fluctuate, so does our need for layers. It’s a good idea to keep an eye on the forecast and dress appropriately! Mornings will be nippy, but afternoons might feel much warmer. If youโre heading out early, a heavy coat is definitely a must!
So, what does this mean for our lovely city? Well, it reminds us that winter is knocking on our doors. And here in the Mid-South, winter usually brings a mix of cool, dry days and a few surprise showers here and there. Staying prepared for anything from chilly mornings to potential rain showers not only keeps you comfy but also keeps the Memphis spirit thriving!
