Daily Climate

A significant winter storm is likely this weekend. Heavy mixed frozen precipitation is likely. The largest uncertainty is where the ice vs snow line sets up across the area. A mix line further north would reduce snow totals and increase ice totals.

There is potential for significant winter weather this weekend. While significant snow and ice are possible, where exactly the snow vs ice vs mixed precipitation bands set up is still highly uncertain, and some areas may change to all rain as well. For now, residents in East Tennessee, southwest Virginia, and southwest North Carolina should check their winter kits and supplies and be prepared before the weekend arrives.

Be prepared for the upcoming winter storm. Prepare and plan for several days of difficult to impossible travel conditions, and have ways to stay warm (safely!) in cold weather.
