The chilly air is associated with a system that will also leave areas of measurable snow along the Cumberland Plateau.

And a winter weather advisory is in effect from 5 p.m. Friday to 11 a.m. Saturday for counties in southern Kentucky.

Snow Totals:

  • Dusting in Nashville on lawns and rooftops
  • Highland Rim, near Kentucky border, could see half inch to 1"
  • 2" possible on Cumberland Plateau
  • South of Nashville will likely see only a few flurries.

Saturday will be partly sunny but cold and a high in the low to mid-30s. Wind chills will be in the teens to around 20 all day on Saturday, with actual temperatures dropping to the mid teens by Sunday morning.
