Travel Troubles Limited

Three more viewer submitted pictures from Monday's snowfall. Thanks to Christy Argo of Coalmont, TN for the top picture. Thanks to Mollie Holland for her picture from Fredonia Mountain near Dunlap, TN in the middle. And thanks also this morning to Karen Potts for her picture on the bottom from Valley Head, AL.
We're thankful this morning that regional travel problems will be small. This afternoon and tonight there will be some sprinkles or flurries from I-40 northward, possibly with light accumulations from Knoxville northeastward.
But that's small potatoes compared to the wind and snow from Chicago through Detroit today. This clipper system heads towards the Big Apple for Thanksgiving Day which may give the balloons at the big parade problems. I look for some snow to fly and whipping winds. Might be interesting to tune in to.
Here at home Thanksgiving looks quiet, with partly cloudy skies with highs into the mid 50s. Then northwest winds crank up Thursday night pushing lows down to between 20 and 25 degrees for the early bird shoppers.
A very sunny Friday afternoon ahead, but it will be breezy and cold with highs only around 45. That's great news for the Grand Illumination Friday evening at Ross's Landing. It will stay dry through Saturday and most of Sunday. But Sunday night we could see a few scattered light showers. Right now Monday and Tuesday look rainy at times.
