Nashville, Tennessee – Frost glitters under streetlights this Veterans Day morning as temperatures in the mid-20s blanket Music City in a quiet, biting chill. Breath lingers in the crisp dawn air, a reminder that fall’s first true freeze has arrived across Middle Tennessee. Drivers may find thin frost on windshields early, but a bright sun is already set to reclaim the day.
According to the National Weather Service in Nashville, a steady warm-up begins now, replacing the freeze with more typical November comfort. Highs will climb into the low 50s this afternoon, then surge toward the mid-60s by Wednesday and near 70°F by the weekend. Clear skies and calm winds will dominate through Thursday, offering several ideal days for outdoor ceremonies, raking leaves, or early holiday decorating.
Southwest winds strengthen slightly midweek, pulling in milder air from the Gulf. By Friday, Nashville and surrounding counties — including Williamson, Sumner, and Rutherford — could see highs in the lower 70s under mostly sunny skies. It’s a striking shift after the region’s coldest morning so far this fall.
For those traveling along I-65 or I-40, conditions remain excellent through Thursday, with no rain or fog to slow traffic. However, patchy fog may form briefly in low-lying areas near sunrise Wednesday. Models hint at an approaching front this weekend that could bring scattered showers by late Saturday or Sunday — a gentle reminder that November’s calm can change quickly as Thanksgiving nears.
For now, the frost fades fast, the skies clear blue, and Nashville’s short cold snap gives way to a warm, bright stretch of late-fall weather.
