Nashville, TN – Low clouds and patchy fog rolled through the region early Monday, shrouding roadways in a soft mist before daybreak. Drivers along I-40 and I-65 faced damp pavement and limited visibility, with drizzle fading by midmorning as skies gradually clear. Behind the fog, a brisk December pattern will settle over Middle Tennessee through midweek.
According to the National Weather Service, Monday brings highs near 40°F before colder, drier air sweeps in overnight. Lows will dip into the upper 20s by early Tuesday, marking one of the season’s coldest starts so far. Tuesday afternoon looks bright and crisp, with highs near 51°F and a light north wind at 10 to 15 mph.
Wednesday should feel more like late fall than early winter — sunny skies, highs near 56°F, and a chill returning by nightfall as lows again fall near 30°F. By Thursday, a weak system may brush the area, bringing a slight chance of showers before colder air locks back in for the weekend.
Residents planning early travel or outdoor errands should allow extra time for defrosting windshields and watch for lingering slick spots in low-lying or shaded areas.
