A change in weather is on the way as rain transitions to snow Friday afternoon, bringing light accumulations to the region. Scattered snow showers are expected to continue through Friday night, with most areas on the plateau and lower elevations of northeast Tennessee seeing a dusting to up to half an inch of snow, primarily on grassy surfaces.
Higher elevations, including ridgetops and peaks along the plateau, could see localized snow amounts of up to 1 inch. Roads in these areas may become slick, so drivers are urged to slow down and exercise caution, especially in higher elevations. Be prepared for the possibility of snow- and ice-covered roadways during the evening and overnight hours.
