NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Thunderstorms are moving across Middle Tennessee this afternoon, bringing wind gusts up to 40 mph, small hail, and frequent lightning that could last into tonight.
The National Weather Service in Nashville reports storms developing quickly across Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, and nearby counties. While no severe warnings are currently in effect, the storms may still cause power outages, downed tree limbs, and hazardous driving conditions during the evening commute.
Drivers on I-40, I-65, and I-24 should expect sudden heavy downpours and reduced visibility, especially around Nashville, Clarksville, and Murfreesboro. Outdoor events may also face delays or cancellations due to lightning and hail.
Officials urge residents to secure loose outdoor items, avoid being outside during lightning, and use multiple ways to receive weather alerts. Even non-severe storms could create dangerous conditions if you’re caught outdoors or on the road.
The storm risk is expected to continue through the evening before easing overnight. More advisories may be issued if storms strengthen.
