...WINTRY PRECIPITATION OVER PARTS OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

A FAST MOVING WEATHER SYSTEM CONTINUED TO PRODUCE SOME WINTRY
PRECIPITATION IN PARTS OF MID TENNESSEE. AT NOON...LIGHT RAIN WAS
OCCURRING MAINLY EAST OF INTERSTATE 65. THE PRECIPITATION HAD
ALREADY TAPERED OFF FOR MOST AREAS WEST OF I 65. SOME BURSTS OF
SLEET AND SNOW WERE OCCURRING ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF THE
PRECIPITATION. SO FAR...NO SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS HAVE
OCCURRED...AND THIS TREND IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AS WARMER AIR
MOVES INTO THE REGION.

THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS...MINOR ACCUMULATIONS MAY DEVELOP
ACROSS THE PLATEAU AND SURROUNDING AREAS. HOWEVER...NO SIGNIFICANT
TRAVEL PROBLEMS ARE EXPECTED WITH PRECIPITATION CHANGING TO RAIN
AND TEMPERATURES WARMING WELL ABOVE FREEZING.

LOOKING AHEAD...COLD AND UNSETTLED WEATHER IS EXPECTED LATE THIS
WEEK THROUGH AT LEAST NEXT WEEK...WITH SEVERAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR
WINTER WEATHER IN MID TENNESSEE. THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY
FOR MIDDLE TENNESSEANS TO REVIEW WINTER WEATHER SAFETY RULES AND
UPDATE WINTER TRAVEL SUPPLIES. PLEASE MONITOR WEATHER FORECASTS
EACH DAY...FORECASTS AND CONDITIONS CAN CHANGE VERY QUICKLY IN
THESE ACTIVE AND COMPLEX WINTER WEATHER PATTERNS.
