.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Monday)
Issued at 111 AM CST Sun Feb 16 2025

The main line of thunderstorms continues to move east, and will exit
off the Cumberland Plateau in the next hour or so. Behind the line
is a massive shield of rain that will continue throughout the
night and into the early morning. Our northwest counties have seen
the most rainfall today with 4-6 inches so far. An additional 1
to 2 inches will be possible with this final round of rain before
drier air start moving in with the incoming cold front. As the
surface low moves off to the northeast later today, temperatures
will rapidly drop behind the front and some wrap-around moisture
will lead to a wintry mix transitioning to snow showers mainly
north of I-40. While accumulation appears unlikely with such warm
and saturated grounds, if enough moisture can wring out, a couple
tenths of inch may be possible over the northeast this evening.

Temperatures this afternoon will be much cooler than we've
experienced in the last week with afternoon temps only in the mid
30s and overnight lows in the upper teens to low 20s. We will have a
chance to dry out Monday and Tuesday, but it's going to be cold
with similar highs/lows as today.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday Night through next Sunday)
Issued at 111 AM CST Sun Feb 16 2025

For the long term, we shift our focus to the next system that will
likely bring some accumulating snowfall to middle TN Wednesday. The
current NBM probabilities of at least 2 inches or more of snow is
40% south of I-40, and between 60-80% north of I-40. The
probability of 4 inches or more is 50-70% north of I-40. Sampling
a few model soundings from both the NAM and the GFS, temperature
profiles are well below freezing with ample moisture in the
dendritic growth zone, so as of now, this looks to be an all snow
event. As the trough exits off to the east Thursday, bitterly cold
temperatures will settle in at the surface as high pressure
builds in from the midwest. We will remain dry through the
remainder of the forecast period, but again, it will be cold.
Current high temperature forecast has the majority of middle TN
aside from the far southern counties below freezing for 48+ hours
for Wednesday-Thursday. Some slight warming will occur Saturday
and Sunday as upper level ridging builds over the Ohio River
Valley with temperatures getting back into the 40s.

.AVIATION...
