...SOME SNOW ACCUMULATION IS POSSIBLE ALONG THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING... AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT WITH COLDER AIR WORKING IN ON THE BACKSIDE THAT WILL CHANGE THE RAIN TO SNOW. AT THIS TIME...IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THE TRANSITION FROM RAIN TO SNOW WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 1 AM AND 3 AM ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE MID STATE...AND FROM 3 AM TO 6 AM ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF MIDDLE TN...INCLUDING THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU. SNOWFALL ACCUMULATION OF UP TO 1 INCH WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU...WHERE A LONGER DURATION OF MOISTURE WILL RESIDE WITH THE COLDER TEMPERATURES. ELSEWHERE...UP TO ONE HALF INCH OF SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM MACON COUNTY SOUTHWARD THROUGH GRUNDY COUNTY. FURTHER WEST...A DUSTING OR LESS IS EXPECTED. IN ADDITION TO THE SNOWFALL THREAT...AS WE MOVE INTO MONDAY MORNING...AREAS ACROSS EASTERN MIDDLE TN MAY ALSO ENCOUNTER PERIODS OF FREEZING DRIZZLE. THIS WILL PROVIDE AN ADDED THREAT TO THE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ROAD CONDITIONS...PARTICULARLY WITH BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES. LATE NIGHT AND MORNING MOTORISTS ARE URGED TO STAY TUNED AND KEEP ABREAST OF THE LATEST WEATHER CONDITIONS AS THIS SYSTEM UNFOLDS. -WXM-
