Special Weather Statement issued December 11 at 5:03AM EST by NWS Morristown TN
Rain will change to light snow later this morning for areas generally along and north of Interstate 40. Due to the relatively warm ground and marginal temperatures for snow, snow accumulations of 1/2 inch or less can be expected and mainly on grassy and elevated surfaces. Any roadway problems will be limited to the higher terrain at or above 2500 feet. Temperatures will continue to fall with time this morning. Values will range in the 30s for lower elevations and 20s across the mountains. If you plan on traveling across the higher terrain today, be prepared for slushy snow accumulations
