Nashville nights have been sizzling, too, as the city hits 90 degrees 29 days in a row

Summer nights have been extremely hot in Nashville.

In the last two weeks, Nashville’s average low temperature was nearly 76 degrees Fahrenheit — roughly the city’s average high temperature in May.

And this past week was even hotter.

The average low temperature from July 23-29 was 77 degrees, more than 6 degrees warmer than average, according to the Southeast Regional Climate Center, which has data going back about 90 years. (Nashville set its highest minimum temperature of 85 degrees in 1954.)

For the summer season thus far, the city’s low temperatures have been the hottest ever recorded. Between June 1 and July 29, the city’s average minimum temperature was 71.8 degrees. Nashville was nearly this hot at night over the same months in 2022, according to National Weather Service data.
