Rain will be diminishing this afternoon but cloud cover will linger. There is the chance for a few isolated showers as well as some drizzle this evening. It will stay damp and cloudy for Friday Night football with temperature readings in the mid to upper 60s.

Overnight lows will fall into the low 60s for most. Mostly cloudy skies continue tonight with dense patchy fog a concern through early Saturday morning. Visibility could be below 1/4 of a mile Saturday morning so plan to give yourself extra time as you head out the door. We may need to go Weather AWARE Saturday morning for fog.

Once the fog lifts, cloud cover will stick around with a few breaks of sun for the afternoon. Saturday’s high is a seasonable 79 degrees. A fair amount of cloud cover lingers for Sunday with highs near 80 degrees. There is a slight chance for a shower or two Sunday afternoon.

By Monday a 30% chance for scattered showers and storms returns. At this point, rain looks more likely Monday afternoon and evening. We are closely monitoring a cold front and trough for the middle portion of the week. Rain chances increase to 40% Tuesday and the pattern could be unsettled through the end of the week. Models are not in great agreement on the long-term forecast so keep checking back for updates.

High temperatures beginning Tuesday are dramatically cooler – maxing out only in the mid to upper 60s with overnight lows in the 50s! Stay up-to-date!

It is also a great time to make sure to download our FREE weather app by searching “Knoxville Weather” in Apple iTunes or the Google Play store.
