.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Monday Night)
Issued at 1104 PM CST Sat Nov 29 2025

Showers are moving east and exiting the area this evening, but the
clouds will linger in the area overnight. Clouds will thin tomorrow
during the day, but will fail to totally clear middle Tennessee.
Lows tonight will be in the 30s, with highs Sunday in the 40s. If
you have any outdoor plans tomorrow, plan to bundle up as it will
feel like it is in the 30s! Once we get into the start of the work
week, our next system will be looming.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through next Sunday)
Issued at 1104 PM CST Sat Nov 29 2025

A shortwave to the north and surface low along the gulf coast will
interact with each other and bring a large swath of precipitation
from the southeast to the eastern seaboard to start the week.
Guidance is showing that we will start off Monday
afternoon/evening with cold rain, and transition into a wintry
precipitation situation overnight and into Tuesday morning in some
areas. As the short- range models are grabbing hold of the
system, it is apparent that there could be some mixed
precipitation with this event. Right now, the area north of I- 40
looks to be the most likely to receive this mixed/wintry
precipitation. Probabilities of at least 0.01" of freezing rain,
so not a lot but still enough to cause some problems, are about 20
- 40% in the aforementioned area, with probabilities for >0.1"
less than 20%. Snow totals look to remain on the lower side right
now, with the area most likely to receive the highest amounts
north of I- 40 and west of I-65. Probabilities for greater than
0.5" are low in current guidance (10-30%). We will continue to
monitor the situation and hopefully things won`t get too dicey
across middle Tennessee.

The pattern after this system will remain active in Middle
Tennessee. Another system will end our brief cold and dry period,
which will bring more precipitation to the mid-state. Below-normal
temperatures look to persist through the forecast period as well.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 532 AM CST Sun Nov 30 2025

A surface front is exiting Middle TN as precipitation is ending
across the area, but some low to mid level clouds remain this
morning. Drier air is advancing into TN with clouds diminishing
across W TN, seen via Satellite. So expecting a period of low CIGs
this morning then clearing out through the late morning. Winds
shift from NW to NE tonight.
