SUMMARY: The weekend has been pleasant, with temperatures reaching a high of 53°F and no rain reported. Despite a deficit in precipitation for January, hopes are high for more rain this month. Tonight, dense fog may form in the valley, impacting visibility, but sunny conditions are expected by late morning. Temperatures will increase, with highs near 60°F tomorrow and potentially close to 70°F by midweek, accompanied by a possibility of rain and thunderstorms. The following week should see above-average temperatures despite a front, which may bring additional rainfall and help alleviate drought conditions.

We gradually warm back up this weekend with much warmer temperatures returning into next week. The next chance for showers comes late next week.

SUMMARY: The Tennessee Education Freedom Act, which provides school vouchers for 20,000 students, passed recently and is awaiting Governor Lee’s signature. Under this bill, eligible families can receive approximately $7,000 to attend private schools, with half of the scholarships subject to income limits. The legislation has sparked passionate reactions from both supporters and opponents, particularly in Wilson County, where local leaders expressed strong opposition. Despite community pushback, all three local lawmakers voted for the bill. The Department of Education is already preparing for implementation, allowing families to enroll students for the upcoming school year.

Now that the governor’s school voucher bill has passed, parents have questions about how it’ll work.
