SHORT TERM
(REST OF TODAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 1149 AM CST SUN JAN 26 2025
WE'VE SEEN LIGHT SPRINKLES ACROSS THE SOUTH THIS MORNING. THIS
PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO EXPAND NORTH ACROSS MOST OF MIDDLE TN
THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. MOST OF WHAT FALLS
WILL REMAIN IN LIQUID FORM AS WE HAVE PLENTY OF WARM AIR NEAR THE
SURFACE, BUT LATE TONIGHT SOUNDINGS SHOW THE TEMPERATURE PROFILES
FALLING BELOW FREEZING MAINLY NORTH OF I-40, WHICH WILL SUPPORT AT
LEAST A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW...THEN A CHANGEOVER TO FLURRIES AS
THIS SYSTEM EXITS EARLY MONDAY MORNING. THERE IS A MEDIUM TO LOW
(20 TO 40%) CHANCE OF LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS OUR NORTHERN TIER
OF COUNTIES AND ON THE PLATEAU. HAVE ADDED IN TRACE ACCUMULATIONS
OF SNOW FOR OUR NORTHEASTERN COUNTIES, BUT NO IMPACTS ARE
EXPECTED.
TEMPERATURES WILL RISE INTO THE 40S DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY AND
CLEARER SKIES WILL RETURN.
LONG TERM
(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1149 AM CST SUN JAN 26 2025
MOST OF THE WORK WEEK LOOKS VERY QUIET. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN
MILD, WITH HIGHS IN THE 50S (AND MAYBE EVEN TOUCHING 60 WEDNESDAY
AND FRIDAY). PRECIP CHANCES WILL START TO BUILD WEDNESDAY EVENING,
MAXING OUT FROM THURSDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY AS A ROBUST UPPER LOW
SWINGS OUT OF THE PLAINS STATES AND POTENTIALLY BRINGS WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS TO MIDDLE TN. RIGHT NOW IT APPEARS THAT WE'LL BE WARM
ENOUGH FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THIS SYSTEM TO KEEP THE THREAT OF ANY
WINTRY WEATHER OUT OF OUR AREA.

SEVERAL HOURS AS RA/SN SETTLES IN FOR A FEW HOURS. PRECIP SHOULD
END BY 13-14Z, BUT LOWERED CIGS WILL REMAIN FOR A GOOD PORTION OF
