Light Drizzle Tonight Could Make for a Few Slick Spots
Thursday Night Forecast Update
Thursday Night Forecast for February 11th:
Freezing drizzle tonight and Friday morning could lead to some slick spots and black ice, so take it easy on the roads. Friday will be mostly cloudy and mid 30s. Saturday morning the next front will pass bringing some wintry mix or light snow chances and low teens Sunday morning. A more potent storm system is expected to head our way Sunday night and could bring a few inches of snow on Monday. Winter weather is likely to continue all next week. We will go into more details right here!
TONIGHT:
Temperatures tonight will stay in the upper and mid 20s with cloudy skies. The winds will stay out of north between 10-15 mph. The winds chill will dropping into the teens most of the night. We can’t rule out some light drizzle sticking to the road ways making for some slick spots, so be sure to be careful.
FRIDAY:
It will be a cold but dry day on Friday. Expect highs only to be around freezing or at highest the mid 30s. Friday night lows could fall into the low 20s with cloudy skies. We are also expecting breezy winds out of the north and that will put the wind chill in the teens in the morning and 20s for the rest of the day. A few light flurries or some wintry mix could move in overnight.
THE WEEKEND:
Forecast models are bringing some arctic air into West Tennessee this weekend with highs only expected to make it in the 20s with overnight lows dropping down into the low teens or upper single digits. The wind chill could be down near 0 at times this weekend. We are expecting some light snow or some wintry mix to show up early Saturday but accumulations or significant impacts are not likely. The next storm system could show up overnight Sunday into Monday and that has the potential to bring a few inches of snow to many of us in West Tennessee.
NEXT WEEK:
Long term weather models are bringing two winter systems into West Tennessee next week. The first is expected to show up early Monday and clear out Tuesday morning. The second system could impact us on Wednesday and Thursday. Each system could pack a serious punch as they come by and we will watching those systems closely in the WBBJ Storm Team Weather Center.
