Discussion
A strong surface cold front will approach the region later today and enhance the chances for showers and thunderstorms in the Tennessee Valley. A few of the storms can reach strong-to-severe levels, but a lack of high moisture content should be somewhat of a limiting factor for severe weather. Following the frontal passage, cooler, drier air with its origins in Canada should push into the area and overnight lows going into early Sunday will be in the low-to-mid 40’s.
