Todays weather in Knoxville TN - Sunday - 24 May 2026

Knoxville is in for a relentlessly wet stretch, and this episode breaks down exactly what to expect from today through next weekend. Current conditions sit at 81°F with a 91% chance of rain right now — this is not a passing drizzle. Winds are light out of the southwest at 0–5 mph, so it's a warm, humid, soaking kind of day rather than a dramatic storm system.Tonight offers no relief, with lows around 65°F and a 90% chance of showers and thunderstorms continuing into the overnight hours. Memorial Day Monday is equally soggy — highs near 80°F and an 84% precipitation chance mean any outdoor plans need a real indoor backup, not just a hopeful glance at the sky.Tuesday is the peak of this wet pattern, with a 97% chance of rain and highs near 82°F — about as close to a guaranteed washout as forecasts get. Wednesday through Friday hold steady at 80% or higher, with only Thursday beginning to ease slightly to 68%. The earliest hint of a break arrives Saturday, when coverage drops to 60% and the high edges down to 79°F.Practical takeaways: keep something waterproof in your car all week, build rain time into every commute and outing, and check conditions before heading out — storm intensity can vary even when the overall pattern stays wet. Light layers and a good umbrella are your best friends this week in Knoxville.This episode includes AI-generated content.
