Cold Weather Advisory until 9a Wednesday for Temps Near 0°
Another night of very cold temperatures.
The official low for Nashville is 7°, but many locations outside of Nashville will likely see temperatures closer to 0°.
Thankfully, winds will be fairly calm, so wind chill values will be very close to the actual air temperature. Regardless, it’s still going to be downright cold.
Dangerous Cold Continues Thru Wednesday
Although we won’t get as cold as last night, it’ll still be very cold tonight.
Official low for BNA is 15°, local backyards may be closer to single digits. Winds will be calmer tonight, so wind chill values won’t differ much from actual air temperatures.
