The "Perfect" Zone Today
If you live in Dallas, Memphis, Nashville, or Louisville, you are sitting right in the middle of our "Perfect" category today.

It is the exact kind of day where you want to keep the windows open and take your lunch break outside on a patio.
This setup is absolutely ideal for evening baseball. If you are heading to the ballpark to watch the Reds in Cincinnati, the Pirates in Pittsburgh, or the Guardians in Cleveland, you could not ask for better tailgating and first-pitch weather. The air will be dry and pleasant right through the final inning.
Just a quick heads up for the midday hours. With skies this clear, the UV index is pushing right up to 8.0 across the South and Ohio Valley. You will definitely want sunscreen if you are spending extended time outside this afternoon.
