A front moving into the Middle Tennessee area on Friday night is expected to bring higher temperatures and severe weather for the area Saturday, with the potential for large hail and even tornadoes.
National Weather Service meteorologist Justyn Jackson said rumblings of thunder and rain could still be lingering from overnight around 6 a.m., just before the start of the St. Jude Country Music Marathon & Half Marathon at 6:45 a.m.
He said that at the start of the race the weather and the chance of rain will be more uncertain, but that precipitation and thunderstorms are expected to subside later into the morning as the race progresses. Temperatures also will increase from the start of the race, when temperatures are expected to be in the upper 50s, to around 70 degrees by 10 a.m.
Temperature are expected to rise to the upper 70s by Saturday afternoon, Jackson said.
