Skies will be partly cloudy this evening as clouds from today hang around.
Evening temperatures will fall to the mid 40°s, but overnight lows will drop all the way to the upper 20°s.
As that weak cold front swings through early tomorrow, there could be some flurries mixed-in with some rain to our east, near the Plateau:

A cold front will broom some rain across Middle Tennessee tonight and overnight. The HRRR model illustrates:
This will help wash some of this snow away.
When the rain ends, a cold northwest wind will blow our wee hour temps down from 46° into the mid-40°s, where they’ll be stuck until dark, when we start to move toward freezing.

Remaining Snow/Ice will refreeze tonight. The overnight low is 30°. Secondary roads are especially vulnerable because they are often shaded and less trafficked.
We don’t know the road conditions, we can only tell you how we think the weather might be impacting them. Consult traffic sources on Twitter (such as @TrafficJamSam) and the TDOT Smartway map/cameras.

At 7:17 AM, if you were on the NW side of this line, you were on your way winning the snow lottery. Snow was accumulating as an impressive convective snow band raced north up 65.
Current Radar
Main impacts… dangerous traveling conditions and power outages. Ice accumulations up to two tenths of an inch possible with locally heavier amounts.
The snow will continue to fall through the afternoon into the evening hours. Roadways only get worse. Try to avoid driving today!
