Middle Tennessee facing a winter storm with significant snowfall.
Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky are preparing for a significant winter storm starting Thursday, with temperatures expected to drop drastically. School closures are already in effect as the area braces for snowfall and dangerously cold conditions. Areas like Memphis could see up to 6 inches of snow, while Nashville may experience significant accumulations as well. Residents are advised to take precautions against frostbite and hypothermia as Arctic air moves in. Although a chilly week is ahead, warmer temperatures are expected by the weekend.
As if the weather didn’t have enough surprises up its sleeve, Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky are gearing up for a chilly, wintry blast beginning Thursday! The wait is almost over as residents prepare for temperatures that are bound to take a deep plunge. Yes, you heard that right! The biting cold is expected to hit these areas starting Thursday morning, and it’s shaping up to be quite the spectacle.
With concerns about the impending snow, several schools in Middle Tennessee have already decided to close their doors a bit early due to snowfall on Wednesday. Parents are breathing a sigh of relief as they make plans for snow days that may come with a side of frosty fun!
Don your warmest coats because a winter storm warning is currently in effect for West and Middle Tennessee from Tuesday night through Wednesday. After battling recent catastrophic flooding from heavy rains, Tennessee is now bracing itself for a snowfall that promises to be more intense than what we saw earlier in January.
The forecast brings with it an exciting chance for some significant snow. Experts predict areas in West Tennessee, particularly around Memphis, will see light snowfall start Tuesday afternoon, ramping up to some serious accumulation overnight. Residents north of Interstate 40 can expect to find up to 6 inches of the white stuff by Wednesday afternoon!
In Nashville, the mercury is scheduled to drop from the high 30s to the low 20s throughout the week. Snowy conditions might just sneak up as early as Tuesday afternoon, leading to possible accumulations of up to 4 inches by Wednesday. Get those shovels ready!
As for our friends in East Tennessee, particularly around Knoxville, temperatures are hovering around the mid-40s on Tuesday but brace yourselves! The thermometer is expected to plummet into the high 30s and even lower into the teens later in the week. Northeast Tennessee is also not exempt from the wintry surprise, as 2 to 4 inches of snow is on the way starting Tuesday night.
This winter storm features some serious Arctic air making its way across Tennessee. With dangerously cold temperatures come warnings about the potential for frostbite and hypothermia. It’s advised to layer up, as even a few minutes of exposed skin could lead to unwanted consequences in these frigid conditions.
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, as it has been declared a First Alert Weather Day due to the expected accumulating snowfall. But hold onto your hats, folks, because Thursday and Friday are likely to have similar alerts as the frigid temperatures return to our neck of the woods.
Be prepared for wind chills on Thursday morning that could nosedive below zero! Morning temperatures might be in the single digits, warming slightly into the 20s by the afternoon, but don’t get too excited! A return to milder temperatures is just around the corner, and a cozy weekend beckons.
Good news, folks! Warmer weather is on the horizon for Saturday, with highs creeping into the low 40s and continuing to climb into the 40s on Sunday. If you’re itching for a break from the cold, the beginning of next week looks to be much kinder with partly cloudy skies and temperatures reaching the upper 50s on Monday and into the low 60s on Tuesday.
So, grab your hot cocoa and get ready for a wild winter ride, Middle Tennessee! Remember to stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy the snowy scenery!
