CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – (CLARKSVILLENOW) The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for middle Tennessee from 3:00 p.m. Monday through noon Tuesday.

Once the snow starts, temperatures will rapidly fall to the freezing mark, and snow accumulation on area roadways will produce hazardous driving conditions.
When all is said and done, expect most of the Mid-State to have around an inch of snow on the ground, although some areas will see a little more, and some a little less. Isolated amounts around 2 inches will be possible.
Along with the snow, temperatures will plummet into the teens overnight, and will not rise much at all on Tuesday. The wind will not be too terribly strong, but it will be enough to keep wind chills in the single digits late tonight through Tuesday. Cold wind chills as low as 0 will cause frostbite in as little as 30 minutes to exposed skin.
Roads will become snow covered and slippery, and with a continuation of cold temperatures, the snow will stick around for a couple of days.
