What Happened To The Snow

Snow was predicted for Saturday and Saturday evening however the fast-moving clipper system only skirted the southern portions of Kentucky and never quite made it to the Plateau areas of middle Tennessee. With only about a 3 in 10 chance of snow yesterday, the likelihood just never panned out. Clipper systems can be tricky to predict and can sometimes dump much more snow than thought as well.

SUNDAY'S FORECAST:
For today, Sunday, expect sunny skies and warmer temperatures with a high around 44° this afternoon. Winds should be fairly calm this morning increasing to around 5 mph this afternoon. Overnight, I expect the clouds will increase in advance of another rainmaker with a low of around 30°. Winds will be southerly from 5-10 mph.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. HOLIDAY WEATHER:
For the MLK holiday on Monday, expect scattered showers, and a windy day with sustained winds from 10-20 mph and gusts to 30 mph. Chance of rain is 50% and we'll see highs around 54°. Shower chances increase on Monday night with a low of 46° and the gusty winds will stay with us. Rain chances 90%.

TUESDAY'S FORECAST:
Tuesday - Rain and a high of 59°
Tuesday Night - Colder, low 27°

EXTENDED FORECAST:
Wednesday thru Friday - Cold Wednesday with a high of 38° but a warming trend on Thursday and Friday as temperatures rise from the upper 40's to middle 50's with rain possibly returning on Friday.
