Showers and thunderstorms are expected this evening and night, bringing additional rainfall, lightning, and a low risk for damaging wind gusts. Hail and tornado risk are very low at this time.

Rain is expected to changeover to light snow on the backside of the cold front early Thursday morning. Only a brief window of time exists for light snow, and warm ground will limit snow accumulations. Map of a half inch or more of snow depicts only higher elevations of the East TN mountains and higher levels of southwest VA ridges.

Warm and breezy today with near record high temperatures. Widespread showers and storms are expected this evening. A few strong to severe storms are possible. It will be briefly colder on Thursday behind the cold front, then we will see a warming trend Friday into the weekend.
