Discussion
A strong cold front will move from west-to-east today across the Deep South and the result here will be a very warm and increasingly windy day and then an evening filled with showers and thunderstorms. Winds during the day will increase in strength and can gust past 50 mph this afternoon. Some of the storms this evening can be severe across the Tennessee Valley with damaging wind gusts a high risk. Multiple jet streaks will be nearby in this time period enhancing the chance for those potential damaging wind gusts. Cooler air will follow the passage of the front for the latter days of the work week.
