Nashville's forecast for Wednesday has moved 12°F warmer

75°F in the 20261007T12:00Z run, 87°F in the 20261009T06:00Z — the 3rd-largest revision of the 10 cities on the roster that moved at all. The current run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread at that hour is 19°F.

Successive cycles do not merely refresh a forecast; they leave a trail. For Wednesday, October 14 at 21Z in Nashville, that trail runs from 75.2°F in the 20261007T12:00Z cycle to 87.2°F in the 20261009T06:00Z — a move of +12.1°F across 8 runs.

The change is about half the run's 10th-to-90th percentile spread, so the earlier forecast is still inside the current range of outcomes.

Model NBM-QMD, via api.weather.city /v1/history. Percentiles are the same run's own.
