Tennessee – Frost clings to rooftops and windshields this morning as breath turns visible under clear skies. The air feels sharp early, and cold pavement still holds onto winter before a fast February shift begins.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, temperatures dipped into the mid-20s before sunrise with light winds, creating localized slick spots on bridges and shaded roads. Skies stay partly sunny today, and temperatures recover steadily, reaching near 50°F by afternoon.
Across Middle Tennessee, this cold start is brief. Tonight turns milder, with lows settling near the mid-30s. Sunshine dominates Monday, and the warm-up accelerates quickly. Highs climb into the mid-60s by Monday afternoon, then surge toward 70°F Tuesday as a warm front pushes north.
Drivers should stay alert this morning where refreeze lingers, especially on elevated roadways. Conditions improve fast after midmorning. Outdoor plans become more comfortable by afternoon, though layers help early.
Clouds increase Tuesday, and moisture returns late. A chance of showers develops Tuesday evening and continues into Tuesday night, with rain chances peaking around 70 percent. Roads may turn slick again during the evening commute, especially during heavier bursts of rain.
Midweek stays unsettled but mild. Wednesday brings scattered showers mainly before noon, then gradual improvement. Highs hold in the mid-50s, still above normal for February. Additional spotty rain chances linger into Thursday, though no widespread impacts are expected right now.
Looking ahead into the 6–10 day window, signs point toward continued above-normal temperatures across the Tennessee Valley. A broader thaw is underway, echoing warming trends across much of the central and eastern U.S., even as colder air remains locked farther north.
Plan for icy patches early, enjoy the warmth by Tuesday, and stay weather-aware during midweek rain. How cold did it feel where you are this morning?
