...A light snowfall is expected in Middle Tennessee this upcoming
weekend...

A cold Canadian air mass will push into Middle Tennessee this
weekend and is expected to bring Middle Tennessee a late season
snowfall.

As Saturday progresses, and an area of moisture spreads into the
mid state region from the northwest, the potential of light
rainfall will spread across the mid state area. As of this time,
it looks like the best moisture will not arrive into the mid
state region until the afternoon hours, when temperatures are
expected to be well above freezing. However, after sunset,
temperatures will quickly fall and a change quickly over
to all snowfall is expected for most locations. An accumulating
snowfall event will be possible across the entire mid state region
as Saturday night progresses, with greatest snowfall accumulation
potential for locations generally along and east of Interstate
24.

There is still a good deal of uncertainty as to how much snow
accumulation will occur. However, presently, it looks like
locations along and east of Interstate 24 will receive one
to two inches, with amounts approaching locally three inches
across the higher elevations of the southern portions of the
Cumberland Plateau Region. One half to around one inch of
snowfall will be possible for locations west of Interstate 24.

Thanks to our recent warm weather, ground temperatures will be
pretty warm this weekend. However, as temperatures drop into the
middle and upper 20s Saturday night, some slick spots could
develop on area roadways, especially over the north.

Please stay informed of the weather forecast this weekend and be
ready to adjust your travel plans as needed, especially for
Saturday night.
