From the ER to the farmer’s market… I’m out helping Jason flog his handmade phone & tablet stands before Father’s Day. The dex must have made a difference to my migraine! Don’t worry, I’ll only stay for a few hours. Thank you for all your support in Emerg. ♥️♥️♥️ #fuckcancer

Since going into remission from cancer I have become a propagator of polka dot begonias! My second bay has gone into a pot while momma grows taller & taller! I’ve heard that I should stop using fertilizer in order to get flowers. #fuckcancer 🌱🩷🌱🩷🌱🩷🌱🩷🌱

We're keeping a close eye on Friday afternoon and evening for the potential of severe thunderstorms across northeast Tennessee and southwest Virginia. The Storm Prediction Center has already placed areas north of I-40 under a Level 2 (Slight) Risk for severe weather. Current forecast guidance indicates plenty of instability will be available for thunderstorms to develop during the afternoon, with storm coverage increasing into the evening hours. The strongest storms may be capable of producing damaging wind gusts over 60 mph and large hail. If you have outdoor plans Friday evening, it's a good idea to have an indoor backup plan and ensure you have multiple ways to receive weather warnings

Why should they stop? Alice Cooper at 78 keeps a schedule that would flatten players half his age, Rush is back, and Willie Nelson headlines at 93. These legends love the rooms, and the rooms love them back. We get to stand there while they push every boundary. zurl.co/eI01Q

Elevated Flood Risk Monday Across the Region A very moisture-rich air mass will move into the area Monday, creating favorable conditions for heavy to locally excessive rainfall. According to the National Weather Service, precipitable water values are forecast to approach record levels for early June across the region. Any showers or thunderstorms that develop will be capable of producing rainfall rates exceeding 2 inches per hour, which could quickly overwhelm drainage systems and lead to flash flooding, especially in urban areas, low-lying locations, and near small streams. Not everyone will experience flooding, but areas that repeatedly see heavy rainfall could face localized flooding issues. If you live in a flood-prone area, now is a good time to review your safety plans and ensure you have multiple ways to receive weather warnings.

Some air quality sensors across the area have hit AQI levels of 90 due to ozone. This could affect those with respiratory issues, asthma, and those performing strenuous activities. A moderate AQI is forecast for tomorrow as well.

We've never been here before. Ringo Starr is 86 and touring, Willie Nelson is 93 and headlining, and rockers in their 70s and 80s are filling the summer calendar. No generation got to watch its founders play this far into the story. Long may they run. zurl.co/Dm3Nc
