Memphis Weather Update: Warm Days Ahead, But Rain Is on the Horizon
Hello, Memphis! If you’ve been enjoying this warm and dry weather lately, you’re in for a bit of a treat before things take a turn. While the sun has been shining and the temperatures have been feeling quite nice, a cold front is making its way towards us on Thursday, bringing with it some rain that could put a damper on Trick-or-Treating plans this Halloween evening.
What’s Happening Tonight
Tonight, if you’re stepping out for any last-minute errands or perhaps a cozy dinner with friends, expect mostly clear skies with a gentle southeast wind blowing at about 10 to 15 MPH. It will be a pleasant evening, with overnight lows settling into the low to mid 60s. Perfect weather for a comfy sweater!
Wednesday: A Sun-Filled Day
Looking ahead to Wednesday, the forecast looks optimistic! We’re going to enjoy mostly sunny skies, and temperatures will warm up quite nicely, reaching the low to mid 80s in the afternoon. The southern breeze will continue at 10 to 15 MPH, keeping the atmosphere nice and toasty. Just imagine the warm sunshine and the gentle wind as you go about your day—sounds delightful, right?
Wednesday Night: Cloudy and Comfortable
As we head into Wednesday night, however, things will start to shift. Expect it to be mostly cloudy, with temperatures cooling to the upper 60s. The wind will still be blowing from the south at 10 to 15 MPH, making for a mild night, though it might not be quite the starry sky you’d hope for.
Thursday: A Rainy Halloween
Now, here’s where it gets a bit tricky. Thursday is forecasted to be cloudy with rain, and there’s a possibility of a few thunderstorms rolling through. Highs will only reach the lower 70s, and the overnight lows will dip to the mid-50s. If you’re planning to take the kiddos out for Trick-or-Treating, be prepared for possible wet weather. You might want to grab those raincoats and umbrellas!
Friday: Still Cloudy
After the Halloween scare on Thursday, Friday won’t shake things up too much either. We’re looking at a mostly cloudy day, with high temperatures hovering near the 70-degree mark. Again, we’ll be keeping those layers close during the night, as lows will fall into the upper 50s.
The Weekend: A Bit of Sunshine? Maybe!
As we roll into the weekend, there might be some relief from all the clouds. Saturday brings the possibility of a few breaks in the overcast, with midday highs sneaking into the mid to upper 70s. There’s just a slight chance of a shower, so keep your fingers crossed for some dry spells!
By Sunday, we could be looking at more warm weather, with highs close to 80 degrees and a lingering chance of rain. The temperatures will stay comfortable overnight in the mid-60s, giving us a taste of what fall can offer.
Final Thoughts
As we navigate through the week, it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the weather and plan accordingly. Whether you’re gearing up for Trick-or-Treating or relaxing on the weekend, there’s a little bit of everything ahead for us in Memphis. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts, and stay dry this Halloween!
