Showers will continue on and off throughout Giles County today (Wednesday), with another round of storms moving in during the late afternoon and evening.

Temperatures northwest and west will drop to the 40s overnight tonight, while areas to the southeast and east stay in the 50s and 60s.

Water from heavy rains this morning (Wednesday) has flooded the underpass on Tennessee 7 in Ardmore.

Authorities said it will take a while to clean up after the water goes down.

They asked everyone in that area to take an alternative route. 

A bigger round of storms will move in during the late afternoon and evening as low pressure pushes across Middle Tennessee.

Those storms could be stronger and could include damaging winds, downpours, and a tornado can’t be ruled out in our south, southeast, and eastern counties where the Storm Prediction Center has placed another Marginal Risk.

The biggest threat from all of these weather makers is likely localized flooding, with 3 to 4 inches of rain. Be careful driving in the heavy downpours, and expect rivers and streams to be rising over the next several days.

Colder air spills on Thursday while leftover showers continue.

Giles County EMS ask people to be careful while traveling during inclement weather and flash flooding.

If you observe any roadway obstructions in the county please call Giles County E-911 at (931) 363-0911.
