We went to bed last night expecting under 1″ of snow along and south of I-40, with no accumulating snow north of I-40, as seen here:

Should You Panic? No.
Why Not? Most of it looks like it will go north of us.
Our current radar also shows the majority of it skating across the southern Kentucky border which is what the HRRR model below thought it would do.
First things first, our Winter Weather Advisory that covers both Davidson Counties and Williams Counties goes into effect today at noon and will last through midnight tonight.
Here is the text of the advisory:
Clouds are increasing. Tonight is just another cold night. The Winter Weather Advisory is not for tonight.
Here’s the text of the Winter Weather Advisory:
This advisory DOES NOT MEAN we will get a lot of snowfall. We are currently expecting up to one inch but will likely see less than that. A dusting appears more likely.

Crisp, cold, winter air has arrived and looks to stay through the remainder of the week. Overnight we had our first front swing through the area, bringing in those cooler temperatures with it.
We will start the day today with a few leftover clouds that are currently pushing out of our area. By lunchtime, we should begin to see those partly sunny skies if not before then.
You probably don’t know him. Mr. Boyd has worked over 50 years in public service to this community as a forecaster at the NWS office in Nashville. He didn’t want a big deal made of his retirement, so if I can presume to speak for Nashville and all of Middle Tennessee, I’ll leave this here simply with a sincere “thank you.”

HRRR Simulated Radar Through 7 AM Tuesday
Strong and severe storms are only possible south of the low pressure (the red “L” in the above image) on days like this. Although we cannot rule out a strong or severe storm or two, I’m feeling no anxiety about the storms tonight.
HRRR Simulated Radar through 11 PM Monday
The Storm Prediction Center has kept the tornado threat south of us:
What’s Happening?
A warm front is heading our way today. Temperatures and dew points will continue to rise. As this happens, lapse rates will grow, and so will rain-and-storm-supportive instability/energy.
