Snow continues to slowly melt across the region, allowing for wet and slushy conditions across some of our roadways. Below freezing low temperatures are expected later today into tonight, which will allow for refreezing of wet surfaces. Please watch out for black ice overnight.

The best chance for light snow accumulations near 1" tonight will be in higher elevations of southwest Virginia and the East Tennessee mountains. Most other areas see little to no accumulation.

Cold front today to turn a few rain showers into light snow this evening in northern TN into southwest VA. Another cold front passes through the area late Friday, bringing a chance of light snow to higher elevations and a drop in temperatures Saturday. Warming temperatures are expected early next week.
