Couple Rounds of Light Snow Possible

Current Radar

So is this a few flurries or should we be “flaking” out?

Don’t worry, the next 24 hours will not include the most snow we’ve ever had. But here’s what is being monitored:

Tonight Into Sunday Morning

UPDATED Latest High-Resolution Model Loop

Wait until the end of this loop to get a glance at the precipitation and its advancement. Also notice how there is a mixed bag of snow and rain.

Temperatures Sunday morning will hover around freezing until about 8-9 AM when they jump above 32º.

Impacts Sunday Morning:

Very few. Any light snow that falls will have a difficult time accumulating and no issues are expected on the roads. As mentioned, temps will quickly rise above freezing, aiding in the melting of any previous snowfall.

Sunday Night – Monday Morning

From NWS Nashville:

By Sunday evening, additional impulses (of energy) and cooling surface temperatures will bring a good chance for light snow showers. This is the time when most of the accumulation is expected. Sunday night lows will drop to the mid to upper 20s, so any travel problems that develop Sunday evening could linger into Monday morning work and school travel times. read more

No Hazardous Weather Anticipated

With all the talk about severe weather and heavy rain last week, Mother Nature is giving us a break for awhile. Speaking of last week’s rain, a new drought monitor has been released:

Latest US Drought Monitor has completely removed our 2 counties from drought after last week's rain. Seems like we should celebrate! ^al pic.twitter.com/oIilB9jSgU read more

Main Showers Moving Off, Slight Chance of a Rain Drop Through the Evening

And just like that the majority of our showers are drifting off to the east. HRRR wants to bring a little bit more rain in the early evening, but any more rain we may see should be very light and more of a nuisance than anything. read more

Warm Wed. W/ Showers, Cold Returns Thurs.

Current Radar

Rain Showers Tomorrow

Have outdoor plans tomorrow? You might want to reconsider, as a decent opportunity for rain will enter stage right during the midday hours. The latest GFS shows the rain’s evolution:

Some of this activity could linger into Thursday AM, but the thing that’ll be most noticeable will be temperatures. A cold front that’s initiating these rain chances tomorrow will drop our temps back into the 20s and 30s overnight and the 40s for daytime highs. read more

Showers To End the Weekend, Cooler (More Average) Week Ahead

Current Radar

Writer’s note: A complex forecast for much of the southern U.S. is playing out today, and in terms of us here, it should be much more subdued than areas to the southeast. If you have friends or family who are visiting/live in southern Georgia or northern Florida, today is a day, more important than any, to be weather vigilant. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a HIGH RISK (5 out of 5) for severe weather of all types and hasn’t done so since 2014. read more

Chance For More Rain/A Few Storms Overnight

Rain Should Make It Here Overnight, But Will Be Disintegrating

Update: more showers and storms are developing to our southwest once again. There is uncertainty regarding the arrival of rain tonight, but we think prime time is somewhere between 2 AM and 6 AM. These storms could produce heavy downpours but widespread severe weather will stay well to our south. Here’s the latest HRRR model (which has done a nice job recently) on predicting tonight’s rain/storm arrival: read more

Regarding heavier rain/flooding potential…

NWS Nashville thinks areas that are low-lying or have poor drainage issues will be most at risk for water accumulation:

A FEW PERIODS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL ARE POSSIBLE TODAY AND TONIGHT. 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAIN WILL BE COMMON ACROSS MIDDLE TENNESSEE...WITH LOCALLY GREATER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. SOME STREET FLOODING MAY OCCUR ALONG WITH LOCALIZED FLOODING OF LOW LYING AND POOR DRAINAGE LOCATIONS. read more
