Shown on the map are the expected high temperatures, weather conditions, and probabilities of precipitation for tomorrow.

After the recent extended period of cloudy, rainy and cold weather, a welcomed warming trend is in store for the TN Valley for Saturday. Although highs will warm back into the upper 50s-lower 60s for most locations, overnight lows will still fall into the 30s. A weak cold front is expected to push across the region on Monday morning, perhaps bringing a few light showers and a slight decrease in temperatures, followed by a return to temperatures close to normal on Tuesday.

Cold weather safety tips: Bundle up by adding warm layers to keep you warm as temperatures drop, protect pets by providing a warm shelter, and help household pipes out by keeping cabinets under faucets open or dripping faucets.
