UPDATE  
 
ISSUED AT 909 PM CST FRI NOV 29 2024  
 
COLD AIR HAS BUILT INTO MIDDLE TN AND WE ARE IN FOR A COLD NIGHT.  
TEMPERATURES ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA ARE RUNNING 8-15 DEGREES  
COOLER THAN YESTERDAY THIS TIME. LOWS TONIGHT WILL FALL INTO THE  
20S WITH SOME TEENS TO THE EAST OF NASHVILLE. BNA MISSED THE 32  
MARK THIS MORNING BY ONE DEGREE KEEPING THE STREAK OF LATEST  
FREEZE ON RECORD GOING. THAT RECORD WILL BE COMING TO AN END  
EITHER TODAY, THERE IS AROUND A 70% CHANCE THE TEMP AT MIDNIGHT  
WILL BE BELOW 32. IF IT'S NOT REACHED BY MIDNIGHT IT WILL HAPPEN  
AFTER WITH A FORECASTED LOW OF 26. WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT  
OVERNIGHT AND SKIES WILL REMAIN MOSTLY CLEAR. CLOUDS WILL START TO  
BUILD IN AROUND DAYBREAK AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING SHORT WAVE FROM  
THE NORTHWEST. THIS SHORT WAVE WILL BRING SOME LIGHT SNOW TO OUR  
NORTH OVER KY TOMORROW. WE COULD MAYBE SEE A FEW FLURRIES OVER THE  
PLATEAU IN THE EVENING, NO ACCUMULATION EXPECTED.  
 
 
   
SHORT TERM  
 
(REST OF TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY)  
ISSUED AT 1130 AM CST FRI NOV 29 2024  
 
IT'S COLD! CURRENTS TEMPS ACROSS THE MID-STATE RANGE FROM 28 TO 37  
DEGREES WITH A BRISK NORTHWEST BREEZE NEAR 10 MPH. THE LOW STRATUS  
CLOUDS HAVE BEEN SLOW TO CLEAR THE AREA, BUT WE'RE FINALLY SEEING  
THE SUNSHINE ACROSS ROUGHLY THE WESTERN HALF OF MIDDLE TENNESSEE.  
FOR OUR FRIENDS ALONG THE PLATEAU, CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO BREAK UP  
AND MOVE OUT AS THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. EVEN THOUGH THE SUN IS  
OUT, IT'S NOT GOING TO WARM UP MUCH MORE TODAY WITH HIGHS BARELY  
GETTING INTO THE 40S. WE CAN DEFINITIVELY SAY THAT NASHVILLE  
STILL DID NOT REACH FREEZING THIS MORNING (0.6C/33F). OH SO CLOSE,  
BUT NOT QUITE. IT WILL HAPPEN TONIGHT. A DEEP FREEZE IS IN STORE  
FOR THE ENTIRE AREA WITH LOWS IN THE TEENS ALONG THE PLATEAU AND  
LOW TO MID 20S ELSEWHERE.  
 
WE'LL SEE AN INCREASE IN CLOUD COVERAGE SATURDAY AHEAD OF AN UPPER-  
LEVEL SYSTEM THAT WILL BE PUSHING ACROSS THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY.  
OVERALL, SATURDAY LOOKS COLD LOOKS COLD AND DRY. SNOW CHANCES ARE  
STILL VERY SLIM ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE UPPER CUMBERLAND LATE  
SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE THE NBM ACTUALLY KEEPING ANY PRECIP CHANCES  
JUST NORTH OF THE AREA. THE HREF IS IN RANGE NOW AND IT'S ONLY  
YIELDING A 30% CHANCE OF 0.1" WHICH SEEMS AGGRESSIVE AT THIS TIME  
GIVEN HOW DRY THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BE. THE MOST LIKELY SCENARIO  
WILL BE A FEW FLURRIES LATE SATURDAY NIGHT.  
 
 
   
LONG TERM  
 
(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY)  
ISSUED AT 1130 AM CST FRI NOV 29 2024  
 
OUR EXTENDED FORECAST LOOKS MORE OR LESS THE SAME AS TODAY: COLD  
AND DRY. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL BELOW-AVERAGE THROUGH NEXT  
WEEK. OUR UPPER-LEVEL FLOW WILL STAY OUT OF THE NORTHWEST,  
CONTINUOUSLY STREAMING IN MOSTLY DRY COLD FRONTS. OUR NEXT CHANCE  
FOR RAIN APPEARS TO BE THURSDAY WHEN A STRONGER COLD FRONT WILL  
MOVE THROUGH, BUT CHANCES ARE CURRENTLY LOW, BETWEEN 20-30%  
AREAWIDE. THERE WILL BE A LARGE AMOUNT OF DRY AIR TO OVERCOME, SO  
QPF AMOUNTS WILL LIKELY BE MINUSCULE.
