Description
Hi All,
October 2025 was a quiet month for weather across Tennessee. The major stories included improving drought conditions across the western half of the state and relatively large temperature fluctuations. There were some days with heavy rainfall in West Tennessee but flooding was minimal due to the dry conditions in September. Tennessee experienced some pronounced temperature swings during the month with many areas reaching into the 80’s or even 90’s in the first week of October as well as in the middle of October, and then down into the 20’s or 30’s by the end of the month. This was most notable as a cold front swept across the state on October 18-19 with low temperatures on the 19th running 30-40 degrees colder than high temperatures on the 18th. The Jackson airport weather station saw one of the most extreme changes with a high of 86°F on October 18 followed by a low of 43°F on October 19.
Cooler weather has definitely arrived and we wish everyone a happy (early) Thanksgiving!
