We know the question on your mind, Music City — when’s it going to get hot? Thanks to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Prediction Center, we know what temperatures and precipitation trends to expect in our city for July, August, and September. While exact weather conditions typically can’t be predicted more than a week in advance, here’s a seasonal outlook to help you prepare for what summer will bring.

Reminder: The first day of summer is on Wednesday, June 21.

🌡️ Temperature

Think warm. This summer, Nashville has a 40-50% chance of temperatures being higher than normal.

🌨️ Precipitation

Expect about average precipitation. Nashville has an equal chance of seeing average rainfall amounts this summer.

Jump into July

Typically in Nashville, July’s temperatures fluctuate between an average low of 69.8° and an average high of 88.3°, making it the hottest month. The average heat index comes out to about 104°. If the thought of that makes you sweat, it’s also helpful to note that July is the month with the most rainfall, averaging ~20 days.

All about August

In August, the average high and low temps are between 87.4° and 68.5°. The average length of a day is 13.5 hours, with the average sunshine ringing in at just over 10 hours a day. We don’t know about you, but that sounds like the perfect sunbathing weather to us. Pro tip: The average relative humidity in August is 73%, so you might want to sit by the water.

Soak up September

Historically, average highs in September drop ~6° to 81.5°, with an average low of 62.8°. It’s also a big turning point in the average amount of sunlight we see in a day. The sun sets at 7:15 p.m. on the first day of September and 6:32 p.m. on the last, averaging just over eight hours of sunshine.

🍦 Scoop, there it is

Get a taste of Nashville as a flavor of ice cream

If the ice cream is strawberry, that means it counts as a serving of fruit — right? Asking for a friend. | Photo by @grace.a.austin
Recently, we asked you to come up with a unique ice cream flavor that describes Nashville and utilizes one to three locally sourced ingredients. After reading all of your responses, it’s safe to say that our mouths are watering. Here were some of our favorites:

Vanilla ice cream with caramel swirl and topped with Goo Goo Clusters. Called “Moosic City.” - Meredith Y.

Vanilla ice cream topped with hot chicken crunchies from Hattie B’s Hot Chicken and pieces of Goo Goo Clusters. Called “GooGoo Clucker.” - Karen V.

Vanilla ice cream swirled with hot honey and topped with dark chocolate Goo Goo Clusters (aka The Howie Premium Goo Goo). Called “Nashville Hot/Cold.” - Lauren B.

The only thing we need now is a local ice cream shop to make one of these flavors a reality. Bobbie’s Dairy Dip, Mike’s Ice Cream, Sarabhas Creamery — we’re looking at you.
Submit your Nashville-inspired flavor
