Today ’twas a lovely day for late January, dry and highs got up in the mid 60s.
Unfortunately, this weather cannot last forever, and rain chances return tomorrow.

Dry Friday, Wet Saturday, Then Calmer Weather
More Manageable Rain Thursday + Saturday
Rain Expected to be “Manageable” Throughout the Week
We’ve received a little rain today, not much, but there’s more to come.
- 2 – 3″ of rain is expected thru Saturday
- majority of the rain will fall Wednesday
- we are excluded from the Flood Watch (heaviest rain expected to stay to our south)
- “Areas north of the Flood Watch could see nuisance flooding issues, but the total rainfall amounts over that area are expected to be manageable…” – NWS Nashville
- no severe weather expected, some thunder possible
Timing:
We should remain dry thru the rest of today, maybe a scattered shower or two.
HRRR model (above) shows some rain arriving Wednesday morning, with the bulk of it coming Wednesday afternoon. Some more rain should swing around Thursday morning. Timestamp is in the upper left corner.
“Heat Wave” and Rain - But Maybe Too Much
Freezing Rain Possible Throughout The Evening, Wind Chill Advisory Overnight Friday
Winter Weather Advisory Noon Thurs. thru 9am Fri., Freezing Rain Possible.
We have a Winter Weather Advisory for both of our counties from noon Thursday – 9am Friday.
- Ice accumulations up to 0.1″ possible…
- “Travel conditions remains treacherous in some locations owing to lingering snow cover” – NWS Nashville
- “…additional ice and snow accumulations will exacerbate these conditions.” – NWS Nashville
Across our counties, probabilities for >0.01″ of ice accumulation range from 30 – 70%.
Ice is a lot different from snow. All it takes is a glazing of ice to cause issues on the roads.
Wind Chill Advisory Thru Wednesday AM, A Little More Snow Possible Thurs. Night, More Dangerous Temps This Weekend
Wind Chill Advisory continues thru 10 AM Wednesday.
- “Wind chills as low as 15° below zero…plan on slippery road conditions. The cold wind chills could result in hypothermia if precautions are not taken.” – NWS Nashville
High temps only expected to make it to 18° today. Wind chills will be stuck in the single digits during the day.
Air temps tonight will be very close to 0°, your backyard may make it below zero.
Hazardous Road Conditions + Dangerously Cold Temperatures. Snow Continues Thru The Evening.
Sunday Night Update: It’s Snowing. Winter Storm Warning Until Tuesday AM, Hazardous Traveling Conditions, Dangerous Cold
Well…it’s snowing.
As expected, snow has quickly accumulated across the area and road conditions are quickly deteriorating. If you don’t have to get out, please don’t. If you must get out, please, take it slow, leave plenty of room, and *clean the snow off the top of your car*. Snow on top of vehicles can become aerodynamic ice missiles, and you do not want that flying thru a windshield.
