The showers will continue to clear out before midnight

Thursday Night Forecast for Thursday January 7th:

Most of West Tennessee missed out on the snow showers this go around, but a few places saw some flakes flying around & a few locations near the Tennessee River still could see a few flakes tonight as well. The showers will continue to clear out before midnight setting the stage for a couple cool days across the region. There are some 50s in the forecast but also another chances for some snow. We will tell you when you can expected both of those right here!

TONIGHT:

It will cloudy and a bit breezy all night long tonight. Depending on how late into the night the showers stick around will determine if the snow will accumulate, but we are expecting a light wet snow to come down for a short period of time for portions of West Tennessee after the sun goes down. Overnight lows will drop into the low 30’s.

FRIDAY:

Any lingering snow showers should clear out by sunrise but a chilly air mass will be left behind by the storm system.  Highs will only reach the upper 30s and expect the clouds to linger around most of the day. The winds will also be an issue as a blustery NW wind between 5-15 MPH will be present during the day as well.

THE WEEKEND:

Highs will only reach the 30s on Saturday and expect mostly cloudy skies to stick around.  We are expecting it to be a bit warmer on Sunday with a little less cloud cover, but overall, the weekend is not going to overly great… but it definitely could be worse.

FINAL THOUGHT:

Most of us will not see much for snow late Thursday, but another storm system is looming off to our southwest. Some of the long team models are hinting at a chance for snow to return early next week to West Tennessee as well. So if you are hoping for some snow, keep your fingers crossed.
