This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest North
Carolina...east Tennessee and southwest Virginia.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

A strong cold front moves through the area tonight. Temperatures
should fall enough before daybreak Sunday to allow for at least a
rain and snow mix over parts of the Cumberland Plateau and
western areas of Lee and Wise counties in Virginia. Any snow
accumulations through that time would be very light.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday

Rain is expected to change over to snow Sunday morning behind a
cold front. The middle to upper Tennessee valley and the upper
plateau may see up to an inch or so. The mountains of southwest
Virginia and eastern Tennessee will have significant snowfall
accumulation. Please see the Winter Weather Advisory and Winter
Storm Watch for this information.

Then, dangerously cold air will arrive behind a cold front Sunday
night and remain through the middle of next week. Many locations
will likely see several days of sub-freezing temperatures. Near
zero wind chills are also likely across much of the region with
values near 15 below zero likely in the mountains Sunday night.
Snowfall may be possible later in the week, but this potential is
still very limited.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Snowfall reports for Sunday through Monday are appreciated.

...Arctic Outbreak of Frigid Air and Light Snow Accumulations
Late This Weekend and Early Next Week...

An arctic cold front will move across the Tennessee valley and
southern Appalachians on Sunday ushering in frigid air into the
region. Snow showers and flurries can be expected with the arctic
frontal passage with light snow accumulations anticipated. The
heaviest snowfall up to 4 inches are expected across the far east
Tennessee mountains.

Snow and ice covered roadways, especially secondary roads and
higher elevations, will result in slick, hazardous travel.

The main concern will be the frigid temperatures with wind chills
dropping as low as 10 to 15 degrees below zero over the far east
Tennessee mountains Sunday night. Across the lower elevations,
wind chills will drop to near zero Sunday night and 5 to 10
degrees above zero for Monday night.

Be prepared for the frigid and wintry conditions. Dress in loose
layers and cover all exposed skin when venturing outside. Limit
time outdoors if possible. Remember to check on family, friends,
and neighbors.

Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio and other local media for
further details or updates.
