MM’s Winter Wx Concerns
A strong area of cold high pressure will quickly move in behind Wednesday evening’s cold front. If that high undercuts moisture, we could see a light accumulation of sleet and snow. If that high pushes all the moisture south as it moves in, we will see little to nothing. Regardless of either situation, this looks to be a light precip event. I should note that if more sleet mixes in it won’t take much to make roads hazardous yet again. So, while precip may be light, impacts to roadways may be high.
On This Day in Wx History
1994- A record cold air mass pushes into the mid state. The high temperature reaches just 10 degrees at Nashville. The plateau is especially hard-hit, as Crossville checks in with a low of -8.
