In Depth:
Francine will move northward across Mississippi today. It'll continue
to weaken as it moves toward Memphis tonight. This track will bring
areas of rain and some thunderstorms to the Mid-South. While the
severe weather risk is low, a quick spin-up tornado is possible.
This will also bring heavy rain at times especially west of Nashville.
Rainfall amounts will rain from .5 to 1 inch along the Plateau to over
4 inches to the southwest of Nashville. Because of this, part of the region
is under a Flood Watch until Saturday morning.
The winds will also pick up, and wind gusts over 30-40 mph could lead
to spotty power outages.
