    Resilience, one pixel at a time. Most people see the emergency. We see the planning, training, coordination, and commitment behind it. The work begins before the storm and continues long after the headlines fade. 24/7/365. #ReadyTN #TEMA75

    Excessive rainfall may produce considerable, potentially life-threatening, flash and urban flooding across the lower Mississippi River Valley and central Great Lakes region through tonight. The heavy rainfall is expected to shift into southern Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and
    NOAA graphic showing the 3-day excessive rainfall outlook tied to Potential Tropical Cyclone One across the Gulf Coast and Southeast. The greatest flash flooding threat (moderate risk, red) extends from southeast Texas near Houston across southern Louisiana, including Lake Charles and New Orleans, through coastal Mississippi and Alabama, reaching inland toward Mobile and Montgomery. A broader slight risk area (yellow) covers much of the surrounding Gulf Coast and Southeast, stretching west into east Texas and north into parts of Arkansas, Tennessee, Georgia, and the Carolinas. Smaller inset maps show how the heavy rain and flooding threat shifts eastward from Thursday through Saturday morning. The forecast highlights a multi-day risk of tropical downpours and potentially significant flash flooding along the central Gulf Coast.

    Still a low chance for a strong/severe ⛈️ tomorrow, with a low risk of flooding, but rainfall forecasts over the broad East Tennessee region have trended down. Thursday may be quite breezy outside of any shower or storm. Friday then looks to clear up for the weekend.
    Dry Wednesday followed by a few scattered showers and thunderstorms on Thursday. A strong to low end severe thunderstorm is possible, with winds the hazard. Breezy on Thursday. A few showers may linger into Friday, but generally clouds to decrease through the day on Friday. Temperatures to remain in the 80s during the days, upper 60s in the mornings. Flood risk very low.

    The graphic shows a low chance (level 1 or 2 out of 5) of severe storms on Thursday, mainly during the afternoon. The greatest risk is going to occur generally north of I-40. The primary risks are going to be damaging winds and also heavy rainfall.
