SHORT TERM
 
 
(TODAY THROUGH MONDAY)  
ISSUED AT 140 AM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
THROUGH MONDAY, VERY CHILLY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE WITH A DEEP  
LONGWAVE TROUGH ACROSS THE EASTERN STATES. INTERMITTENT DISTURBANCES  
AND SURFACE FRONTS WILL COME DOWN IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW. ONE SUCH  
DISTURBANCE IS CURRENTLY CROSSING THE REGION PRODUCING A SWATH OF  
LIGHT SNOW ALONG THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY. HERE IS MIDDLE TENNESSEE,  
THIS SYSTEM IS PRODUCING AREAS OF CLOUDS AND A FEW STRAY  
FLURRIES. THE CLOUDS HAVE HELPED KEEP OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES  
WARMER THAN LAST NIGHT.  
 
FOR THE DAYTIME, WE WILL KEEP MAINLY CLOUDY SKIES THROUGH THE  
MORNING, THEN INCREASING SUNSHINE IN THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS WILL BE  
SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY, IN THE 40S. PASSAGE OF A SURFACE COLD FRONT  
TODAY WILL BRING A REINFORCING SHOT OF CHILLY AIR FOR TONIGHT.  
LOWS WILL DROP BACK AGAIN, MUCH LIKE FRIDAY NIGHT, INTO THE TEENS  
TO LOWER 20S.  
 
MONDAY HAS BEGUN TO LOOK MUCH MORE INTERESTING AS ANOTHER  
DISTURBANCE COMES AT US FROM THE NORTHWEST. THE LATEST MODELS ARE  
IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THIS DISTURBANCE WILL BE A LITTLE  
STRONGER AND A LITTLE FARTHER FARTHER SOUTH THAN PREVIOUSLY  
EXPECTED. THE RESULT WILL BE A BETTER CHANCE FOR SNOWFLAKES THAN  
WE HAVE HAD THIS WEEKEND. SHORT RANGE MODELS HAVE BUMPED UP SNOW  
POTENTIAL, SHOWING A 30 TO 50 PERCENT CHANCE FOR A DUSTING OF SNOW  
ALONG AND NORTHEAST OF I-24. MODELS ARE INDICATING A LOW END  
EVENT WITH VERY LOW PROBABILITIES FOR 1+ INCH AMOUNTS, CONFINED  
TO THE HIGH ELEVATIONS OF THE UPPER CUMBERLAND. THE BEST CHANCE  
FOR SNOW SHOWERS MONDAY WILL BE IN THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY  
EVENING. WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR MAJOR TRAVEL IMPACTS AS DAYTIME  
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE ABOVE FREEZING, BUT A LIGHT  
COATING OF SNOW COULD BE LEFT IN SOME SPOTS AS TEMPERATURES FALL  
TO FREEZING MONDAY EVENING. THE MAIN LOCATIONS FOR THIS POTENTIAL  
WOULD BE ACROSS OUR NORTHEAST COUNTIES, ESPECIALLY THE UPPER  
CUMBERLAND.  
 

 
   
LONG TERM
 
 
(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY)  
ISSUED AT 140 AM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
DRY HIGH PRESSURE WILL TAKE OVER LATE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY  
NIGHT WITH THE COLDEST CONDITIONS OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. LOWS IN  
THE TEENS TO LOWER 20S WILL BE COMMON WITH HIGHS STRUGGLING TO GET  
ABOVE 40.  
 
TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE A LITTLE MIDWEEK AHEAD OF ANOTHER COLD  
FRONT. THE FRONT WILL COME THROUGH A SMALL CHANCE FOR SHOWERS  
FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER DIP IN TEMPERATURES FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.
