23 MAY 2026 · Memphis weather today opens with patchy fog and a calm 64 degrees — no wind, no rain, just that quiet Friday morning stillness. The good news: today's rain chance is a mere three percent, so once the fog lifts, you're clear.
Saturday is the weekend's golden window. Partly sunny skies, a high near 84 degrees, essentially zero wind, and only a seven percent chance of rain. It's your best outdoor day of the week — maybe the best of the next seven days. Get outside, dress light, leave the umbrella at home.
Then the pattern shifts. Saturday night brings a 42 percent chance of storms after midnight, so your evening plans are safe but keep an eye on the sky heading toward midnight. Sunday arrives with 62 percent storm odds and a high near 84. Sunday night climbs to 67 percent.
Memorial Day Monday is the headline: 83 percent chance of storms and a high near 80 degrees. If you have cookout plans, line up a covered backup space now.
The wet stretch doesn't end there. Tuesday pushes storm chances to 88 percent. Wednesday and Thursday hold in the upper 60s percent range. Even next Friday sits at 61 percent. Highs hover between 80 and 85 all week — warm, humid, and persistently stormy.
For today's commute, fog is your only real obstacle. Use low beams, slow down, and leave extra following distance. Conditions improve by midday. Tonight stays foggy and mild around 64 degrees.
Enjoy Saturday, Memphis — the storms are coming, and they're staying a while. This episode includes AI-generated content.
