...Snow Showers and Isolated Squalls with Arctic Cold Front
Tonight...

An arctic cold front will bring snow showers and the possibility
of an isolated snow squall tonight. The activity will initially
be mixed with drizzle or freezing drizzle in some areas before
transitioning to all snow after midnight. The favored time window
for these snow showers and any squall is between midnight and 4 AM
EST on Saturday morning. This threat will linger the longest near
the Kentucky-Tennessee border.

Any accumulations should be minimal, with a light glaze of ice
possible and snow accumulations of generally under one half of an
inch. However, rapidly falling temperatures overnight could lead
to slippery travel in some areas. Visibilities could drop suddenly
under any squall that materializes.

Those traveling tonight are advised to exercise caution and allow
extra time to reach their destination.
