Jim, it's kicking up here, too. The winds have really
picked up, in the last hour. Here's the latest from
the NWS for us:

...SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBLE ACROSS MIDDLE
TENNESSEE ON FRIDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING...

A STORM SYSTEM CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS THE GREAT PLAINS WILL BRING
POTENTIALLY SEVERE WEATHER TO MIDDLE TENNESSEE ON FRIDAY AND FRIDAY
EVENING. THE WIND FIELD AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO
STRENGTHEN OVERNIGHT, AS DEEP MOISTURE ADVECTS INTO THE MID STATE
FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. AS A RESULT, THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS
PLACED ALL OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER
FOR FRIDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING.

THE COMBINATION OF AN UNUSUALLY WARM ATMOSPHERE, A STRONG WIND FIELD,
DEEPENING MOISTURE, AND INCREASING ATMOSPHERIC INSTABILITY AHEAD OF
THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY PRODUCE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS
AND HEAVY RAINFALL. AS STORMS DEVELOP IN THIS ENVIRONMENT, STRONG
WIND SHEAR IN THE LOWER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE COULD TRANSFORM SOME
OF THEM INTO SUPERCELLS, WITH AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO POSSIBLE.

EVEN NON SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS, DUE TO THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW
LEVEL WIND FIELD, ARE LIKELY TO PRODUCE SPORADIC DOWNBURSTS CAPABLE
OF PRODUCING DAMAGE ON THE GROUND.

DUE TO THE DEEP MOISTURE EXPECTED WITH THIS SYSTEM, LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL IS ALSO A POSSIBILITY, ESPECIALLY ALONG THE CUMBERLAND
PLATEAU, WHERE LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING MAY OCCUR.

RESIDENTS OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE ARE THEREFORE URGED TO STAY UPDATED ON
THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS WEATHER SYSTEM, AND LISTEN FOR LATER
STATEMENTS AND POSSIBLE SEVERE WEATHER WATCHES LEADING UP TO
TOMORROW'S EVENT.
