Discussion

Few Daytime Showers; Chilly Weekend

A cold front is on the doorstep, and will be marching across the state during the daytime. There will be a few rain showers and higher-elevation snow showers with this feature, but precipitation amounts are going to be on the light side.

There will be partial/temporary clearing tonight, before more clouds slosh-into the mountains in the developing northwesterly wind flow. A few snow showers and flurries can be expected during Saturday, ending by early Sunday. After a break in the action, there will be additional flurries around late Sunday night into Monday morning. Accumulations will be dusting-level in the valley locations, but could pile up to several inches across the High Smokies by early Tuesday.

The pattern changes a bit thereafter, allowing for moderation in temperatures. A weak frontal zone moves in by late Tuesday promoting some more cloudiness.

A new storm system emanating from the U.S. Southwest might bring more rainfall by next Thursday.
