Some may have woken up thinking “Where’s the snow?”
It’s coming. Recall last night this was going to be a slowly-falling snow over a 9 to 12 hour period. We’re not even halfway through that window right now.

No Worries Flurries Possible Tonight/Overnight
As I write, radar indicates a weak clipper system producing flurries in Missouri and north Arkansas. As it creeps east into Middle Tennessee, it should encounter low moisture content. Therefore, at most only flurries are expected here. NWS-Nashville wrote: “There should be no impacts from this quick-hitting clipper.”

Rain Thursday
“Friday snow” will be hard to believe Thursday afternoon when it starts raining off and on and we are in the mid 60°s. Rain will be heavy at times, and last into Friday morning. Sometime Friday, rain should transition to sleet and/or freezing rain, and eventually snow.

I know crap apps train us to see clipart snowflakes and nebulous percentages and draw conclusions; you're better served by reading discussions, understanding nuance, possibility, and ranges, and not blowing past important qualifiers like "right now" the forecast "could be" etc. pic.twitter.com/WLNVfETind

Sleet, Freezing Rain, or Just Rain Tonight/Overnight?
There is no “one size fits all” forecast for Middle Tennessee tonight.
1. For Davidson and Williamson Counties, the NWS-Nashville forecast from 9 PM to midnight includes a chance we will get all rain, a chance it’ll be a sleet and rain mix, or a chance of all sleet; however, the most likely result will be rain. Freezing rain is not mentioned because temps are expected in the upper 30°s. There is no mention of snow.
