AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NASHVILLE TN
424 AM CST SUN JAN 5 2014

.DISCUSSION...THE MAIN STORY CONTINUES TO BE THE ARCTIC BLAST SET
TO ARRIVE LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT. THE MAIN CHANGE IN THE LATEST
FORECAST PACKAGE IS PUSHING BACK THE ARRIVAL TIME SLIGHTLY. LATEST
MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE FRONT ENTERING OUR
NORTHWEST COUNTIES AROUND 21Z...BNA AREA ABOUT 23Z...AND CSV BY
03Z.

FOR THIS MORNING...RAIN WILL DEVELOP MAINLY OVER THE NORTHWEST
WITH SCATTERED LIGHT SHOWERS FARTHER EAST. TEMPERATURES WILL BE
MILD...WITH READINGS ALREADY WARMING INTO THE 40S ALONG THE TN
RIVER. BY MIDDAY...GUSTY SOUTH WINDS WILL DEVELOP WITH SIGNIFICANT
WARMING AHEAD OF A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. MIDDAY READINGS
WILL REACH 45 TO 50 FOR MUCH OF THE AREA...WITH SOUTH WINDS
PUSHING INTO ADVISORY LEVEL WEST OF THE PLATEAU...WITH 35-40 MPH
GUSTS.

AS THE COLD FRONT ARRIVES LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...TEMPERATURES WILL PLUMMET. THE RAIN WILL CHANGE TO
SNOW...AND A QUICK BURST OF ACCUMULATING SNOW IS EXPECTED IN THE
1-4 HOURS FOLLOWING THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. WE CONTINUE TO BELIEVE A
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IS THE BEST FIT FOR THIS EVENT...WITH 1 TO
PERHAPS 2 INCHES OF SNOW EXPECTED ACROSS THE MID STATE...EXCEPT
SOME HIGHER AMOUNT OVER 3 INCHES IN THE USUAL HIGH PLATEAU
LOCATIONS. MODELS HAVE BEEN TRENDING LOWER WITH SNOWFALL EXPECTATIONS...
BUT REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH SNOW OCCURS...THE RAPID FREEZING OF
LEFTOVER MOISTURE ON ROADS COULD CAUSE VERY HAZARDOUS TRAVEL
CONDITIONS. AS TEMPERATURES FALL INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS
OVERNIGHT...ROAD TREATMENTS WILL BECOME LESS EFFECTIVE...SO ROADS
MAY BE LIKE A SKATING RINK LATE EVENING THROUGH MONDAY MORNING.

GUSTY WINDS WILL CONTINUE WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...30-40 MPH AT
TIMES THROUGH EVENING...SO THE WIND ADVISORY WILL LAST TIL
MIDNIGHT. GUSTS WILL SETTLE DOWN LATER IN THE NIGHT...BUT
SUSTAINED WINDS WILL REMAIN 15 TO 25 MPH...DROPPING WIND CHILLS
WELL BELOW ZERO. A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN PLACE FRO
MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING.

ON MONDAY...STRONG COLD ADVECTION WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES NEAR
STEADY IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND TEENS. BROKEN TO OVERCAST CLOUDS
WILL REMAIN WITH PERIODS OF FLURRIES OR SNOW SHOWERS. SOME FRESH
DUSTINGS OF SNOW ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE DAY ACROSS THE
AREA...AND THE BEST UPSLOPE AREAS OF THE PLATEAU FROM JAMESTOWN
TO MONTEREY MAY PICK UP A FRESH INCH OF SNOW THROUGH THE DAY.

FOR MONDAY NIGHT...TEMPS FALL NEAR ZERO FOR MANY AREAS...AND IN
THE SINGLE DIGITS BELOW ZERO FOR THE UPPER CUMBERLAND. A FEW
FLURRIES MAY STILL LINGER OVER THE EAST. TUESDAY WILL BE
SUNNY...BUT STILL COLD WITH HIGHS IN THE TEENS.

MID TO LATE WEEK...TEMPS WILL BE WARMING...BUT THE PATTERN WILL
REMAIN UNSETTLED WITH THE NEXT CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION COMING IN
BY THURSDAY MORNING. THERE COULD BE A WINTRY MIX AT THE
ONSET...CHANGING OVER THE ALL RAIN ON THURSDAY. THERE WILL
CONTINUE TO BE ON AND OFF CHANCES FOR RAIN INT THE WEEKEND.
