...Rain Changing to Snow Late Wednesday Afternoon and Evening...

A cold front will move across east Tennessee, southwest Virginia,
and southwest North Carolina late Wednesday afternoon and evening
bring with it widespread precipitation and colder temperatures. A
band of rain will move into the region then mix with and change
over to snow by early evening.

A brief period of accumulating snow is possible across the
Plateau, southwest Virginia, northeast Tennessee, and central
valley. Snowfall of 1/2 inch is possible mainly on grassy and
elevated surfaces, and up to 1 inch across the higher ridges.

Snow covered roadways are possible across the higher terrain
Wednesday evening. Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio and other
local media for further details or updates.
