159 FXUS64 KOHX 082309 AFDOHX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 509 PM CST Mon Dec 8 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 507 PM CST Mon Dec 8 2025 - Warmer and breezy Tuesday and Wednesday. - Much colder air arriving by the weekend with lows possibly in the teens and highs mostly in the 30s. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Tuesday) Issued at 1100 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025 A cloudy Monday is in store for middle Tennessee, with clouds thinning a bit into the evening but not totally going away. Temperatures will barely rise out of the 30s in most area today, with some along the plateau and the KY border never quite making it. Lows tonight will dip back into the 20s, with the Cumberland plateau getting as low as the low 20s. With another night of sub-freezing lows, freezing fog is on our radar as a possibility tonight if clouds clear in some areas. High pressure will build in through Wednesday morning, driving temperatures into the 50s for highs. The good news is the sun will be visible in the sky during the afternoon on Tuesday as clouds briefly clear. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday Night through next Monday) Issued at 1100 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025 A trough is expected to dig south and bring more rain chances to Middle Tennessee. Precipitation amounts with this system have totally dried out in the guidance, and we are not expecting any QPF in the mid-state. One notable thing is an arctic air mass from close to the arctic circle will be behind another cold front that will move through at the end of the week. We`re still refining exacts with how cold we will get, with guidance backing off on the extreme cold temperatures as of late. So while it may not get into the teens for lows, it will still be very cold at night, with expected lows in the low 20s. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 507 PM CST Mon Dec 8 2025 MVFR cigs continue across the area, but are slowly eroding away from the northwest. CKV has returned to VFR with other terminals expected to return to VFR early Tuesday morning. Otherwise, light northerly winds will become southerly to southwesterly Tuesday morning, strengthening to around 10 knots. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
