Two rounds of showers are moving through Knoxville today, and the timing is specific enough that your schedule actually matters. This isn't one of those vague "chance of afternoon rain" days.
The first round of showers arrives around midday and extends into early afternoon. By three o'clock, the chance of rain is sitting at seventy percent, with light showers and winds picking up to around nine miles per hour.
On top of the rain, today is noticeably cooler. Highs are only reaching the low seventies, which is a meaningful step back from the warmer stretch Knoxville has been in recently.
What that means in practice: layer up and bring an umbrella, not as a precaution but as a requirement. A light jacket makes sense given the temperature drop.
The evening commute carries the most direct risk. That second round of showers with potential thunderstorms and gusty winds is likely to overlap with drive time.
