Editor’s Note: Reviewing Last Night
We saw about 12 hours of rain, totaling 2.39″ between 3 PM Sunday and 3 AM Monday. We spent the day and most of last night wondering when temps would hit freezing at the surface, setting off an ice storm.

Although snow is exiting stage East, travel hazards remain. From the NWS 11 AM Conference Call:
What Happened Overnight
The freezing line covered all of Davidson County at 1 AM. It reached Franklin at 1:40 AM, and the rest of Williamson County by 2:30 AM.
The heaviest precip started to pull away between 3 AM and 4 AM.
7 PM — No real changes to the forecast below. Everything seems to be on track. The weather balloon that went up a few hours ago returned data confirming freezing rain/ice will be the initial mode of wintry precip.
