Mostly cloudy skies are hanging over Middle Tennessee for now. Temps will stay just below average with highs in the mid-40s. If you need to get something done outside today, I would go ahead and do it this morning. After lunch, scattered showers with even heavier showers tonight will begin to arrive.
A few flurries have been reported over the area this morning, and as long as cloud cover remains, a few non-consequential flakes could fly. Less sun is expected than previously thought, but still some could mix in this afternoon under partly cloudy skies. Southerly winds return, too, bumping our temperatures into Tuesday morning up a degree or so.
A few flurries may make it to us this evening, but will be dissipating on their approach. The latest HRRR model has a good handle on it. No impacts are anticipated.
Expect COLD overnight into Monday…temps will dip down into the low 20s!
Streamline of clouds are currently pushing into the Middle Tennessee area. Expect clouds to hang around through the majority of the day, with an increase in clouds this afternoon into this evening.

Scattered clouds are moving off the plateau this morning, leaving much colder air in its wake. Middle Tennessee will struggle to get out of the 30s today for afternoon highs, even with abundant sunshine.
At 9:45 AM rain is changing to snow near STL. System will take I-24 to Nashville. Most of it will be rain. Possible rain will change to snow after the PM rush hour as the precip departs east. Party/Panic level: low…but interested. pic.twitter.com/6njsVTb8L5
Gusty southerly winds today will drive warmer air into Middle Tennessee quite quickly. With additional sun, we should have no problem reaching the upper 50s to near 60ºF this afternoon. If you can get outdoors, today’s your day!
Today and tomorrow look to be two pretty nice days for this week.
Sunny today and tomorrow with temps in the low 40°s today and highs skyrocketing into the upper 50°s tomorrow. Winds tomorrow may get a bit gusty at times with winds in the 10-15 mph range and gusts upwards of 25 mph.
You may have seen some flurries today, and you may see a few more tonight as some weak energy rolls overhead…enough to manufacture very light snow. No travel impacts or accumulations are expected.
Love snow? Don’t get excited. At least, not yet.

So low, it’s not even in the weekly summary:
Clearing will be brief as a fast-moving shortwave clips the mid state tomorrow [Monday] and even brings a chance of light rain/snow mainly to the northern Plateau before making a quick exit.
