A powerful cold front will push across the mid state late Tuesday into Wednesday. Unseasonably warm moist air is expected ahead of the front with temperatures in the 60s and 70s...and this warmth will help provide fuel for widespread showers and strong to severe thunderstorms to form along the

significantly Tuesday night...with south winds of 25 to 35 mph
and gusts up to 45 mph possible at times. These strong winds may

severe thunderstorms is expected to form and reach the Tennessee
River around or after midnight Tuesday night. The front will then
quickly push across middle Tennessee before exiting the region
Wednesday morning. Some of these storms could contain damaging
winds...heavy rainfall...and isolated tornadoes.
