WHAT TO EXPECT

Skies remain clear as we head through the overnight and as lower humidity remains in place it will allow us to be a little cooler to start Monday morning. Lows fall into the lower to middle 50s with a mostly clear to partly cloudy start as a few clouds pass by from time to time.

Sunshine will mix with clouds as we head through the afternoon and it will be another nice day to get out and enjoy if you can. High temperatures will be a little warmer as we head into the lower 80s with a touch more humidity. With the slight increase in humidity we could see a stray shower developing along the higher elevations and into the south valley. Most of us stay dry though and if you plan on being outdoors for a prolonged period of time don’t forget the sunscreen.

LOOKING AHEAD

More sunshine is in the mix for Tuesday and the middle of the week as high pressure stays in place and will keep things quiet. We’ll remain close to average in the lower to middle 80s for the afternoon and back into the middle 50s for the mornings. Perfect weather if you plan on heading out to the Knoxville Open.

Next chance of rain isn’t until Friday and even then our opportunities remain spotty at best. Enjoy the nice stretch of weather ahead!
