Memphis Weather: Expect a Warm Day with a Chance of Showers!
Good morning, Memphis! As we wake up to another day in the beautiful Mid-South, we’ve got some warm weather ahead along with the possibility of rain and storms later in the day. So grab your favorite coffee mug, settle into your cozy chair, and letโs chat about what today has in store!
Warm Start to the Day
First off, itโs a toasty morning here in Memphis, with temperatures already climbing to around the upper 70s as we head towards noon. With a high expected to reach near 88ยฐF, we are on track to have a day that feels quite a bit warmer than what we typically see this time of yearโusually, weโd be hanging out in the low to mid 80s. It’s a great chance to wear those summer clothes one last time, but donโt forget the sunscreen if you’re planning to be outdoors!
A Little Bit of Everything
As the day progresses, the clouds are expected to roll in, creating a rather cozy ambiance. This means that even though it might feel warm, the skies could look a bit gloomy as we move into the afternoon. Hereโs the scoop: keep your umbrellas on standby and prepare for a potential sprinkle. Thereโs about a 20% chance of rain through the day, which is pretty low, but itโs always good to be prepared!
Evening Showers and Storms
As evening approaches, the forecast gets a little more interesting. The chance of showers starts to climb, with 60% of us possibly experiencing some rain as we ease into the night. Expect bursts of heavier rain and possibly even some thunderstorms later on. So if you have plans, you may want to keep an eye on the sky or your weather app. Just a heads-upโwinds could also pick up, creating a Level 1 out of 5 threat for gusty winds today and tomorrow, so stay alert!
Looking Ahead: A Cool Down is Coming
If the warmth isnโt your cup of tea, donโt worry! Cooler weather is on the way. Starting tomorrow, weโll see temperatures dip into the mid to upper 70s, which will feel like a refreshing change. Although rain might still linger in the forecast for the next few days, it shouldnโt be a washout. We can look forward to passing showers rather than all-day rain. That means youโll still have your afternoons free to enjoy the outdoors!
Thoughts on the Gulf
In addition to our local weather, letโs take a quick moment to mention whatโs brewing over in the Gulf. As we keep our eyes peeled on the patterns, it seems like Tropical Storm Helene is expected to form this week. Areas along the coast from Louisiana to the Florida peninsula should stay alert for any impacts. Remember to check in with trusted sources for updates if you’re planning a trip that way, but for now, weโre focusing on our Memphis weather!
Conclusion
So there you have it, Memphis! Whether youโre soaking up the warmth this morning or preparing for a rainy evening, itโs always great to stay informed and ready for what mother nature throws our way. Enjoy your day, and donโt forgetโumbrellas and a good book can work wonders during those rainy spells!
