Maybe snow? Maybe not? Either way things warm up on Monday.

Today and Tonight 


Rain showers today expected to mix with or change over to snow tonight...mainly after midnight. Light accumulation is possible across the north and east...with the highest amounts on the upper Cumberland.

A few snow showers will continue along the plateau early Monday morning. Some slick spots on roads will be likely.

A Quick Shot of Measurable Snow Possible Over Parts of the Mid State Late Tonight and Early Monday.

A low-pressure system will move across our area tonight and early Monday, pulling in colder air from the north and giving northern and eastern parts of Middle Tennessee a chance for measurable snowfall. 

The best chance for snowfall accumulation will be in the counties near the Kentucky border, especially along the Highland Rim, north of Nashville, extending eastward toward Lafayette, Smithville and the Cumberland Plateau. Those areas could see between one half and one inch of snow accumulation late tonight into early Monday morning.

There is still some uncertainty regarding snowfall accumulations and temperatures late Sunday night and early Monday are expected to drop to between 29 and 32 degrees over extreme northern Middle Tennessee and along the Cumberland Plateau. 

So, it is possible that some roads could become slushy or snow covered. Any snow that falls won`t stick around long, as temperatures are forecast to top out in the 40s to around 50 by Monday afternoon.

National Weather Service Issues FLOOD WATCH Over Concerns about Flooding from Another Rain Event

FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING... 

 The National Weather Service in Nashville has issued a 
  • Flood Watch for a portion of Middle Tennessee, including the following areas, Bedford, Cannon, Cheatham, Clay, Coffee, Cumberland, Davidson, De Kalb, Dickson, Fentress, Giles, Grundy, Hickman, Houston, Humphreys, Jackson, Lawrence, Lewis, Macon, Marshall, Maury, Montgomery, Overton, Perry, Pickett, Putnam, Robertson, Rutherford, Smith, Stewart, Sumner, Trousdale, Van Buren, Warren, Wayne, White, Williamson, and Wilson. 
  • From Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning 
  • 2 to 4 inches of rain. 
  • Runoff from this event will likely cause rises of smaller creeks and streams, especially Wednesday evening when thunderstorms may produce flash flooding. Minor flooding may also be possible on the larger rivers into the weekend, especially on the lower reaches of the Cumberland, Duck, and Tennessee River basins. 
NWS says expect flooding from creeks and
Streams. (file photo) 

HYDROLOGIC OUTLOOK:
Heavy Rainfall Expected Across Much of the Mid-South From Early Wednesday Through Thursday Afternoon.

Rainfall is expected to return to Middle Tennessee early Wednesday, falling on saturated grounds unable to absorb much more. Area creeks, streams, and rivers are running high and a number of river gauge locations are above Action Stage. Rain is expected to move out Thursday afternoon, leaving total rainfall amounts of several inches across the area.

Runoff from this event will likely cause rises of smaller creeks and streams, especially Wednesday evening when intense thunderstorms may produce flash flooding. Minor flooding may also be possible on the larger rivers into the weekend, especially on the lower reaches of the Cumberland, Duck, and Tennessee River basins. 

Model guidance indicates storm total rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches can be expected, with isolated higher amounts possible. Where the rain falls vary from Southern Kentucky and most of Tennessee to Northern Mississippi and Northern Alabama. This lack of consistency with where the rain will fall creates uncertainty with total rainfall amounts, as well as the severity of flooding.

Special Weather Statement: Snow Possible Monday Night and Tuesday.

ANOTHER ROUND OF SNOW LIKELY FOR 
MIDDLE TENNESSEE MONDAY NIGHT 
AND TUESDAY. 

Snow accumulations are likely once again for 
all of Middle Tennessee Monday night and Tuesday. 
Snowfall totals are expected to range from one half inch 
to 2 inches, with the higher totals on the Cumberland Plateau.


While there could be a mix of snow and rain for a couple hours in areas northwest of metro Nashville late Monday afternoon, the changeover to all snow is expected to happen quickly for everyone after sunset Monday. Snows will continue throughout the day Tuesday, so while accumulation are not expected to be more than one and a half inches west of the Cumberland Plateau, both the morning and afternoon commutes could be slick ones.

Special Weather Statement: More Winter Weather likely for the Weekend

A Winter Weather Event Possible Across Middle Tennessee Friday
into Saturday...

There is the possiblity of a winter weather event across Middle
Tennessee Friday into Saturday, with accumulations of ice and snow
creating hazardous travel.
An approaching frontal system will produce numerous light to moderate rain showers Thursday night into Friday. As the cold front crosses the area from west to east on Friday, temperatures will fall below freezing, changing rain to freezing rain and snow. By Friday evening, precipitation will be all snow. The snow could continue into Saturday as well. On top of some ice accumulation, several inches of snow could fall, especially across the northern Highland Rim. Temperatures will be in the 20s Friday night through Saturday, so hazardous travel is likely. There is still a significant amount of uncertainty with this possible winter weather event that is still more than 48 hours out. Stay tuned for further information from the National Weather Service Office in Nashville along with our media partners that serve Middle Tennessee for the latest updates on this potential winter weather event.

Special Weather Statement from Natl. Weather Service on Extreme Cold for New Years

Special Weather Statement from the National Weather Service:
Arctic blast to impact the mid state over New Years...

An arctic cold front will move through the mid state on Saturday.
Much colder air will then spread across the area through the
weekend. Low temperatures will reach down into the teens by New
Years Eve morning and will only warm into the 20s during the day.
Then, on New years day, lows will range from 8 to 14 with highs
of 20 to 25.

Adding to the bone chilling cold will be the very low wind chill
values. Wind speeds of 10 to 15 mph will equate to wind chills in
the lower teens during the day on New Years Eve. Later that
evening...winds will persist with wind chill values dropping down
into the single digits. By sunrise, wind chills will reach as low
as 5 below zero in a few northern Middle Tennessee locations. Cold
temperatures will continue into Monday night where Middle
Tennessee will experience wind chill values of minus 5 to minus 8
degrees before sunrise.
If venturing outdoors during the holiday weekend, be sure to wear multiple layers of clothing. Consider bringing any pets indoors and check on the elderly. Also, be sure to take the necessary precautions regarding the protection of water pipes from the cold. Of additional note, if the expected low and high temperatures of 12 and 23 degrees, respectively for Nashville, occurs on New Years day, it would mark the 4th coldest New Years Day on record. The period of record extends all the way back to 1871.

National Weather Service issues statements on Tropic Storm Cindy effects.

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT:
Tropical Storm Cindy to impact Middle Tennessee today through
Friday night.

Tropical Storm Cindy has made landfall on the Gulf Coast this
morning. Although it will quickly weaken as it moves further
inland, its remnants will still have a significant impact on the
weather across Middle Tennessee today through Friday night.

As the storm moves into the Lower Mississippi Valley tonight and
then across Middle Tennessee late Friday and Friday evening, look
for widespread showers and thunderstorms to spread across the
region. The prolonged exposure to copious tropical moisture will
contribute to significant rainfall amounts and possible flash
flooding, especially Friday and Friday night.

In addition to the heavy rainfall potential and flooding threat,
there is a marginal risk of severe storms across all of Middle
Tennessee today and tonight, and a marginal or slight risk of
severe storms Friday and Friday night. The primary threat
continues to be damaging straight line winds, but tropical systems
are also known to spawn weak, short-lived tornadoes.

Crossville Storm Clouds from earlier this month


HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK:

DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

The remnants of Tropical Storm Cindy are expected to produce
significant rainfall amounts across Middle Tennessee beginning
today. Flooding impacts today and tonight will be minimal, and
restricted mainly to ponding of water on roads during heavy
downpours. In addition, there is a marginal risk of severe storms
across the entire mid state, with damaging straight line winds the
primary threat.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

Rainfall amounts will intensify on Friday and Friday night as the
storm center moves directly across Middle Tennessee. Two day
rainfall amounts will average 2 to 4 inches, with most of this
occurring Friday and Friday evening. There is also a marginal or
slight risk of severe storms, with damaging straight line winds
once again the primary threat. However, it is important to
remember that tropical systems are known to produce weak, short-
lived tornadoes.
