Another Sunny Day After A Cool Start

If you're a fan of cool nights and warm sunny days then this is the weather for you. We start out the morning at 55.7° the fifth day in a row in the 50's. This afternoon temps will climb into the upper 80's with a calm wind and sunny, clear skies. Overnight, expect another cool night with lows near 60, I believe we'll drop down to the 50's for the sixth straight night. On Friday, we'll push 90°.

SUNNY SKIES THROUGH WEEKEND:
The pretty weather continues through the weekend with rain expected by Monday and Tuesday of next week.

AIR QUALITY ALERT:
A 'Code Orange' Air Quality Alert is in effect on Thursday (today) for counties surrounding the Nashville area. The closest one to Putnam County is Smith County to our west.


LATEST TRACK ON TROPICAL STORM ISAAC:
Residents of Florida BE ON THE LOOKOUT for Tropical Storm Isaac. The current track takes over the Dominican/Haiti this weekend and then onto Cuba Sunday and then into the Gulf near Key West on Monday and up the west coast of Florida Tuesday. It is still early and this track may change.
