Before we get to tomorrow’s winter weather chances and the inevitable frenzy, let’s get you through today.
A Freezing Fog Advisory will expire at 9 AM. By mid-morning, we should see any areas of fog begin to break-up.
Current Radar
Temps have hovered at and just above freezing this afternoon. After dark, we should be at or below freezing. Beware of black ice, especially on bridges and overpasses.
By midnight, we should be at 30°, where we will hold for most of the morning before dropping to 28° just before sunrise.

Both Williamson and Davidson counties are under a Winter Weather Advisory tomorrow:
NWS is calling for about 2 inches of snow. Models are pulling about 3 inches, so that range looks like the sweet spot … Snow is more likely north than it is south…. Model data also has temps at 5,000 feet below freezing in Davidson County, above freezing in Williamson County. That means we may see snow only along and north of I-40, with a mixed bag of snow, sleet, and freezing rain south of I-40….After noon, the precip will change to rain as we rise above freezing, then move on out.
Current Radar
Temperatures are in the teens early this morning. A north breeze is knocking down the “feels like” temperatures to the single digits:
Winds today will be right around 5 mph, keeping our “feels like” temps a few degrees lower than what thermometers are reading.

It’s So Cold!
Brrr! It got down to 10° at our office this morning! How cold was it at your location? #tnwx

Summary…below freezing temps start tonight, lasting through Tuesday…Maybe a wintry mix early Wednesday, probably just a cold rain.
Arctic Air Arrives Tonight
As I write this at 4 PM, the arctic cold front had already crossed the Ohio River and is near Clarksville. The Arctic air should be spilling in to Davidson and Williamson Counties after dark.
