...WINTRY WEATHER POSSIBLE TONIGHT...AND LIKELY SUNDAY NIGHT FOR
PARTS OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

AS UNUSUALLY COLD WEATHER CONTINUES ACROSS THE REGION...AN
APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR
WINTRY WEATHER.

THE FIRST CHANCE FOR WINTRY WEATHER WILL MOVE IN LATE TONIGHT.
THIS IS EXPECTED TO BE IN THE FORM OF LIGHT SLEET...AND MAYBE A
FEW PATCHES OF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN. THIS PRECIPITATION IS
EXPECTED TO BE VERY LIGHT WITH NO TRAVEL PROBLEMS. WARMER AIR
WILL BRING A CHANGE TO ALL RAIN FOR THE DAYTIME SUNDAY.

THE MAIN CONCERN FOR WINTRY WEATHER IS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY
MORNING...WHEN COLDER AIR WILL MOVE IN...CHANGING RAIN OVER TO
SLEET AND SNOW. THIS CHANGE TO SLEET AND SNOW MAY OCCUR BY
MIDNIGHT FOR AREAS AROUND CLARKSVILLE AND DOVER. THE NORTHWEST
PORTIONS OF THE MID STATE ARE LIKELY TO HAVE AROUND ONE INCH
ACCUMULATION OF SNOW AND SLEET BY DAYBREAK MONDAY.

FOR THE NASHVILLE METRO AREA...THE TRANSITION FROM RAIN TO SLEET
AND SNOW IS EXPECTED TOWARD DAYBREAK...PERHAPS DURING THE MONDAY
MORNING COMMUTE AS TEMPERATURES DROP INTO THE LOWER 30S. AT THIS
TIME...THE NASHVILLE AREA IS EXPECTED TO HAVE LESS THAN ONE INCH
OF SLUSHY SNOW AND SLEET.

FARTHER EAST...ACROSS THE NORTHERN HIGHLAND RIM AND UPPER
CUMBERLAND...PRECIPITATION WILL BE ALL RAIN THROUGH DAYBREAK
MONDAY...THEN A BRIEF PERIOD OF SNOW AND SLEET MAY PRODUCE
ONE HALF INCH OF ACCUMULATION THROUGH MID MORNING.

ACCUMULATIONS ARE UNLIKELY FOR THE SOUTH HALF OF MIDDLE
TENNESSEE...ALTHOUGH A FEW SPOTS MAY HAVE A QUICK DUSTING BETWEEN
DAYBREAK AND MID MORNING MONDAY.

ANY TRAVEL PROBLEMS ARE EXPECTED TO IMPROVE QUICKLY BEFORE
LUNCHTIME MONDAY AS THIS STORM SYSTEM MOVES AWAY. TEMPERATURES
WILL CLIMB ABOVE FREEZING QUICKLY...AND BRISK NORTHWEST WINDS WILL
HELP DRY THE ROADS.

PLEASE STAY WEATHER AWARE AS WE APPROACH MONDAY MORNING...AS THIS
SNOWFALL POTENTIAL COULD CREATE TRAVEL HEADACHES.
