UPDATE  
 
ISSUED AT 850 PM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
WE WILL SEE QUIET CONDITIONS TONIGHT. SKIES WILL REMAIN MAINLY  
CLEAR OVERNIGHT AND THAT WILL LEAD TO COLD CONDITIONS WITH LOWS  
FALLING INTO THE LOWER 20S WITH SOME TEENS OVER THE PLATEAU. A  
LONG WAVE TROUGH IS OVER THE EASTERN US WITH AN EMBEDDED SHORT  
WAVE SPINNING INTO THE NORTH DAKOTA. THIS SHORT WAVE WILL DIG INTO  
MIDDLE TN. CLOUDS WILL START TO INCREASE TOWARDS DAYBREAK AND WE  
WILL SEE SCATTERED LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON.  
THE SNOW SHOWERS WILL HAVE TO FIGHT SOME DRY LOW LEVELS INITIALLY  
BUT WE SHOULD SEE THINGS SATURATE BY MID-AFTERNOON. NOT EVERYONE  
WILL SEE SNOW SHOWERS BUT IF YOU GET UNDER ONE YOU COULD SEE UP TO  
A DUSTING OF SNOW. SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE BIT MORE WIDESPREAD ON  
THE PLATEAU AND THEY COULD SEE UP TO 0.50" MAINLY IN THE  
NORTHEAST. HIGHS TOMORROW WILL BE IN THE MID 30S OVER THE PLATEAU  
TO MID 40S SOUTHWEST.  
 
 
   
SHORT TERM  
 
(REST OF TODAY THROUGH MONDAY)  
ISSUED AT 959 AM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
WEAK ECHOES ARE SHOWING UP ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE UPPER PLATEAU.  
IT MAY BE FALLING AS LIGHT SNOW, BUT WITH TEMPERATURES JUST ABOVE  
FREEZING, WE DON'T EXPECT ANY ACCUMULATION TODAY. WE DO EXPECT  
SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS TOMORROW AFTERNOON MAINLY NORTH OF I-40  
AND EAST OF I-24 AS AN UPPER TROUGH SWINGS ACROSS MIDDLE  
TENNESSEE. DESPITE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN AT THE SURFACE,  
THERE DOES APPEAR TO BE ENOUGH MOISTURE AND LIFT ALOFT TO PRODUCT  
SOME LIGHT SNOW WITH ACCUMULATIONS UP TO 1/2" POSSIBLE. READINGS  
TONIGHT WILL BE WELL BELOW FREEZING, WITH SOME TEENS POSSIBLE IN A  
FEW SPOTS. TEMPERATURES TOMORROW WILL BE SLUGGISH AND WILL  
STRUGGLE TO GET ABOVE FREEZING ACROSS OUR NORTHERN ZONES GIVEN THE  
EXPECTED CLOUD COVER AND NORTHWEST WIND. BECAUSE ACCUMULATIONS  
SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN 1/2", NO WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES ARE  
BEING PLANNED AT THIS TIME.  
 
 
   
LONG TERM  
 
(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY)  
ISSUED AT 959 AM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
THERE ARE SOME ADDITIONAL RAIN CHANCES WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH THE  
NEXT COLD FRONT. BUT MOISTURE ACCOMPANYING THIS SYSTEM WILL BE  
SCANT AND QPF VALUES ARE VERY LOW. TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE  
FIRST WEEK OF DECEMBER ARE GOING TO BE QUITE COLD, DEFINITELY  
COLDER THAN NORMAL, AND THIS TREND IS LIKELY TO CONTINUE IN THE  
6-10 DAY PERIOD AND PERHAPS EVEN DAYS 8-14.  
 
 
   
AVIATION  
 
(00Z TAFS)  
ISSUED AT 526 PM CST SUN DEC 1 2024  
 
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT WITH SOME FEW TO SCT MID-HIGH  
CLOUDS. WINDS REMAIN OUT OF THE NW THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST PERIOD.  
CLOUD COVER INCREASES THROUGH THE AFTERNOON MONDAY AS A SHORT WAVE  
BEGINS TO MOVE THROUGH. SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE AFTER 21Z  
FOR CKV AND THEN CSV/SRB AFTER 23Z. CONFIDENCE IS BELOW AVERAGE  
ON HOW WIDESPREAD THESE SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE, BUT SHORT PERIODS OF  
MVFR CIGS WITH SOME REDUCED VIS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY HEAVIER  
SNOW SHOWERS THAT MIGHT DEVELOP THROUGH THE EVENING.
