Nashville, Tennessee – Travelers in Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia should prepare for hazardous weather conditions starting next week. Forecasters predict heavy snow and severe gusts, which may cause significant travel problems.
According to the National Weather Service, a broad low-pressure system will likely provide unsettled weather from November 27 to December 3. Tennessee and Kentucky have a moderate (40-60%) probability of heavy precipitation, with some places experiencing snowfall and severe winds. Wind chills may fall below freezing, causing hazardous conditions for outdoor activity.
West Virginia may also suffer snow and strong winds, particularly higher elevations. Travel during one of the busiest times, November 27-28, could be dangerous owing to poor visibility and icy roadways. A small (20-40%) probability of heavy snow is forecast for the Ohio Valley and the Appalachian region.
Experts recommend that passengers regularly watch weather updates and allow extra travel time. Emergency kits with blankets and supplies are also recommended. Additional information will become available as the storm approaches.
Stay informed to avoid any disruptions during the Thanksgiving holiday.
