...VERY BUSY HOLIDAY WEEKEND WEATHER FOR MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

THERE WILL BE AT LEAST THREE PERIODS OF WEATHER THIS WEEKEND AND
INTO THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK THAT WILL BRING SOME TYPE OF
SIGNIFICANT WEATHER TO MIDDLE TENNESSEE.

AS EARLY AS SATURDAY AFTERNOON...A COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP INTO THE
MID-STATE. THERE WILL BE SNOW CHANCES BEHIND THIS FRONT SATURDAY
EVENING...WITH UP TO A HALF INCH POSSIBLE ON THE PLATEAU...AND A
DUSTING TO A QUARTER INCH FOR THE REST OF THE AREA.

SATURDAY'S FRONT WILL ALSO USHER IN VERY WINDY CONDITIONS. WEST
TO NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 20 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH GUSTS OF
30 TO 35 MPH. COMBINED WITH THE COLD AIR BEHIND THE FRONT...WIND
CHILLS WILL LIKELY FALL BETWEEN ZERO AND MINUS TEN DEGREES
SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING.

WITH THE COLD AIR ALREADY IN PLACE...MORE PRECIPITATION WILL
START TO MOVE INTO WESTERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE SUNDAY EVENING. SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR MANY. 1 TO 3 INCHES IS NOT OUT
OF THE QUESTION...WITH THE BEST CHANCES ALONG AND WEST OF
INTERSTATE 65 SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. IN ADDITION TO
THE SNOW...MIDDLE TENNESSEE COUNTIES ALONG THE ALABAMA STATE LINE
WILL RUN THE RISK OF A WINTRY MIX OF FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET
DURING THIS SAME TIME FRAME. FORECAST CONFIDENCE REGARDING THE
LOCATION OF THE HIGHEST SNOW ACCUMULATIONS IS LOW AT THIS TIME.

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL OCCUR TUESDAY.
CONFIDENCE IS EVEN LOWER FOR THIS PART OF THE FORECAST...BUT THE
BEST CHANCE FOR ANY WINTER PRECIPITATION TUESDAY WILL BE SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 40...CLOSER TO THE ALABAMA STATE LINE.

PLEASE CHECK BACK WITH US OVER THE WEEKEND FOR THE LATEST FORECAST
THINKING ON ALL OF THESE SCENARIOS.
