.Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms are forecast across 

portions of Middle Tennessee through Sunday morning, producing 

locally heavy rainfall across already saturated soils. Several 

inches of rain are possible, particularly across northwest Middle 

Tennessee. Confidence in flooding and flash flooding has increased 

in anticipation of these upcoming storms, and significant flooding 

could occur and continue in areas of heaviest rainfall activity. We 

will see rises on area streams and rivers through the rest of the 

weekend.
