.SHORT TERM...
(Rest of today through Saturday)
Issued at 1044 AM CST Fri Nov 6 2026

Lower clouds are streaming in from the north on satellite this
morning, as the reinforcing cold front that entered the mid-state
begins to exit into east Tennessee. Highs today will be in the 60s
as that colder and drier air mass settles in, with frosty and
freezing conditions expected tonight. Lows will be in the 30s across
the area, for the first time this season for many areas. Saying this
because if you have any precautions you need to take, make sure you
get them done before tonight.

Saturday will be another cooler autumn day, with lows in the 50s.
Skies will initially be clear in the morning, as surface high
pressure continues to hang out in the Ohio River Valley. We will see
some partly cloudy conditions creep in in the afternoon and evening,
but no rain expected. Lows into Sunday morning will crash into the
low 30s, with some areas in the upper 20s being possible.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday Night through next Friday)
Issued at 1044 AM CST Fri Nov 6 2026

A complicated pattern aloft will evolve into next work week, as an
UL trough forms in the SW and treks across the south into mid-week.
It is a complex pattern with not a lot of model agreement currently,
but we could get some rain out of it. We will see some warming into
the upper 60s to low 70s for highs before this occurs, with lows
remaining cold in the 30s and 40s. Models suggest another cold push
into the end of the week next week, continuing the fall temperatures
and dropping them back into the 50s and 60s for highs with freezing
morning lows.
