@NashSevereWx Is this a nap-worthy type of storm or stay up just in case type?

Lightning near BNA. Storm hardly moving / 311 PM

@NashSevereWx What does it mean by lift north? Like north of Nashville?

Storms themselves continue to lift north which is great (although still watching those closely). Either way, these storms will send straight line winds into Davidson Co which may be 40 MPH or more. This is good news for now, more to follow later today / 932 AM

@JackRuddenWX @SingingMarie18 @NWSNashville Okay I was curious why I heard them and I haven’t heard them since

@SingingMarie18 @NWSNashville It’s due to the wind. 70-80mph winds will trigger sirens in some localities.

There are VERY strong winds with storms around Clarksville, heading toward Springfield. No areas of rotation right now, but a tornado could develop quickly. Stay close to a secure shelter if you’re in this area.

@allthecarstuff @brittanysusic @Montcoseverewx Heard them go off once and haven’t heard them since. Wind is crazy right now lol

@brittanysusic @enmb44 @Montcoseverewx Yes the sirens are going off, maybe just not where you are exactly. And text alerts have been sent…

Get ready. Storm is bowing aka strongest winds are making a b-line for us. Straight line winds are no joke.

@hvillewx @Spirit29 @NWSNashville We are about to hit another quiet patch with the main event happening sometime around 10-12 give or take. They also said it will happen on patches around the counties. Don’t count it out just yet and make sure you can wake up fast if something happens

4:32 PM Radar Update: Severe thunderstorms across western Middle TN continue to make their way eastward. Large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes continue to be possible with these storms. Continue to stay weather-aware!

@cody_br_bush @ryanhallyall @NWSNashville Just saw a guy in my apartment complex catching them with a net lol

@NWSNashville any tornado warnings or chances? its so dark here but also at the same time people are just walking around outside LOL

4:02 PM: This storm in Clarksville may be producing baseball size hail! Seek shelter indoors and away from windows!

@NashSevereWx yall really the mvps. having constant updates are so reassuring even if they arent what i want to hear. thanks so much!

Supercell with large hail and damaging straight line winds accelerating to 45 MPH and pushing ETAs sooner than previously calculated. 5-6 PM the concern for this storm arriving in a very volatile atmosphere / 341 PM / Other ETAs attached

@Montcoseverewx im newish to the area. how far is sango from wilma rudolph?

2:18 radar: main circulation headed towards Sango area. No reports of anything on the ground

@Stephvoartist @NWSNashville It happens every year. Tornado and severe weather runs from March - May and then also the rest of the year when it feels like it. Weather just weathers in Tennessee with no rhyme or reason

@NWSNashville Are these kind is storms unusual here? We haven’t lived here long to know if this is a heightened event or normal this time of year? Trying to put things in perspective ! Thank you for all you guys do!

Along with the severe weather threat we could also see some flash flooding. Multiple rounds of thunderstorms later this evening into Thursday morning will bring heavy rain which could lead to some flooding along with rises on area rivers, creeks, and streams. #TNwx

@NashSevereWx I read that last bit as 30% chance of a tornado 😂 let’s hope that doesn’t happen

Strong to severe storms possible, each day looks a little worse (today-Tue-Wed). Details here: nashvillesevereweather.com/2024/05/06/823…

@NashSevereWx So it’s a Lynyrd Skynyrd cover band without the Free Bird?

Still feels like this event is like is your favorite metal band setting up to play -- but they may not have their bass player. Or like you're ready for JayZ or AC/DC but instead you get Meghan Trainor. No shade on MT but just not the same. Watching. Waiting. / 338 PM

@Montcoseverewx My power is hanging on by a thread near me but fingers crossed this was the big guy! Or at least lessens the big guy!

Severe threat is basically over with this batch of storms. Curious to see the effects this has on afternoon development.

@Montcoseverewx Possibility of a tornado warning with this one or more likely for the later one?

50mph winds and half inch hail possible with current storm.

@NashSevereWx What do the slashes in the box mean? Some areas outside don’t have it and I’m not sure if it means more likely in the box and less likely outside it?

NEW: Storm Prediction Center upgrades our severe weather chances for tomorrow. Probabilities of "x" within 25 miles of you are now: Tornado 10% (those tornadoes could be strong), Damaging Wind - 30% (could exceed hurricane force), Large Hail - 30%. NO thanks.

@Stephvoartist @NashSevereWx Gotta look at it the other way around tho. It’s still a 90% chance that there won’t be one near you if it happens

@NashSevereWx Have you seen the percentage this high before for tornado risk?

Within 25 miles of you tomorrow, the chances of “x” occurring are: tornado – 10%, damaging winds – 30%, large hail – 15%. More info througho buff.ly/3SnvSyM

@NashSevereWx 😭🫰 let’s hope it’s just a nice, but loud wash. I always sleep better during thunderstorms. Thanks yall. Hope yall got coffee brewing. You’re in for a long night

Looks now like we'll have two rounds of storms. These storms....and the main line later overnight. These storms in SW Mid-TN should be here in the next couple of hours. Could be hailers. They also could steal some energy from round 2 overnight. But dunno yet. Radar 8:02 pm

@Jimbo_World86 @NashSevereWx Not to answer for them but most likely. 2% last time I saw and it mostly just seems like high winds and rain but be ready

@NashSevereWx @enmb44 Is the Tornado threat still low?

7:10 pm - the storms to our SW are not the main event, nor do we expect them to strengthen. New balloon data shows a "cap" about 12,000 ft up that should put a lid on these things and cause them to weaken as they get closer. For the main event overnight, main risk remains damaging straight line winds. Appears the storms will have some energy to feed off of when they get here.

@NashSevereWx 😔🤟
