Tonight/Overnight/Sunday Morning – Precip Arrives, Probably Not Any Freezy Stuff – Low 32°
Temps are going to very slowly dip from the upper 30°s, then the mid 30°s, and maybe even drop down to (but not below) freezing.
Today – Partly Sunny & Cold – High 45°
A south wind produced by high pressure just off to our E will warm us up into the mid 40’s during the day.
The National Weather Service believes we will have a slight chance for rain and sleet after 1 AM, as a low pressure system nears Nashville. IMO we will not have any precip until sunrise on Sunday, and it will just be a cold rain. A few places such as bridges and overpasses could accumulate some patches of ice, but for the most part this won’t be a big deal.
Today – Sunny & Really Cold – High 38°
A north breeze will keep wind chills in the 20°s. Tonight expect temps at 31° at kickoff, 27° on the drive home.
Why the cold temps? This high pressure in the midwest is on our cold side, sending in cold, arctic air:
Today — Much Colder — High 36° (Wind Chill 27°)
Temps will be 20° to 25° below normal, but we will not reach record low temps. NW winds at 10 to 15 mph are keeping wind chills in the 20°s.
Forecast wind chills from 6 PM Wednesday to 6 PM Thursday (every 3 hours):
31, 27, 23, 22, 20, 25, 31, 32, 28
Thursday — Much Colder — Wake Up 27°, High 40° (Wind Chill 32°)
Morning lows will bottom out in the mid to upper 20°s. We will struggle to get into the lower 40’s.
To the men, women, and families of those who serve: Thank you.
