Smoky Mtn Observations

Rain changing to snow late Wednesday and Wednesday night. Snow accumulations likely across the higher elevations.

Rain Wednesday is expected to change to snow showers Wednesday evening, diminishing Thursday. Several inches of snow possible in higher elevations of the East TN Mountains. A light dusting of snow from hit or miss snow showers is possible in the northern valley, but best chance for light snow accumulations remains in higher elevations of East TN and Southwest VA. Flurries otherwise are likely further south into Tennessee.

Dry conditions and warmer temperatures are expected today as high pressure builds into the region. Rain chances will increase again on Wednesday as a front approaches and moves through. Much colder air rushes in late Wednesday and Wednesday night, changing precipitation to snow showers late Wednesday afternoon and night. Friday looks dry but cold, and then another system with the possibility of snow arrives Friday night into Saturday
