NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — More rain and storms are expected on Tuesday with a cold front. There is a very low risk of a severe thunderstorm.

The Storm Prediction Center has placed our southeast and east areas under a Marginal Risk (1/5) for Tuesday. The severe risk would be for damaging wind gusts. Overall, any storm will produce heavy rain and lightning.

With heavy rain expected to be main concern, there is a Marginal to Slight Risk (levels 1 and 2 out of 4) for excessive rainfall. This means too much rain in a short period of time can cause flooding concerns.

Late Tuesday morning into the afternoon, more storms begin to fire up along the cold front and continue to move south and east through the afternoon. Some of these storms could be strong.

Thanks to the cold front, there will be a slight lowering of the humidity for the second half of the week, with dew points dropping from the very humid 70s to 60s. It's not a big change, but you should notice it!

In the drier air, temps will still reach the low 90s, but the heat index values or "feels like" temps will not be as excessive as last week.

Right now, the Fourth of July forecast looks warm, but dry.
