Memphis, Tennessee — A calm and sunny stretch is setting the stage for a noticeable weather shift heading into Sunday night, with travel impacts likely across key routes like I-40 and I-55.
Friday brings a warm and comfortable feel across the city, with temperatures rising into the mid-80s under mostly sunny skies. Light winds and dry conditions make for an easygoing afternoon, though the warmth may feel stronger as the day progresses.
Into the evening, temperatures gradually cool into the 70s while skies remain clear. It’s an ideal window for outdoor plans before changes begin to take shape.
Saturday continues the warming trend, with highs again reaching the mid-80s. Sunshine dominates, and the atmosphere remains stable, offering another dry and pleasant day across Memphis.
By Sunday, conditions begin to shift. Increasing cloud cover and rising humidity signal a transition. Late in the day, showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop, with rain chances climbing to around 40 percent.
This system is being driven by moisture moving north from the Gulf, creating a setup that could support stronger storms into early Monday.
Drivers traveling Sunday night should be cautious. Wet roads, sudden downpours, and reduced visibility may impact travel, especially along major highways.
The unsettled pattern continues into Monday, with scattered storms and warm, breezy conditions lingering before temperatures climb again early next week.
