Knoxville Braces for Weather Whiplash with Sunny Spells, Gusty Winds, and Possible Snow

The National Weather Service forecasts a wide range of weather, from sunny spells to potentially dangerous circumstances, as the clouds over Knoxville begin to lift. The NWS predicts “a slight chance of sprinkles between 10am and 11am,” with a slight chance of morning showers. The weather is then anticipated to clear up a bit, with temperatures reaching about 67 degrees before falling later in the day. Winds may increase, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Breezy weather will persist overnight as temperatures drop to a low of about 37 degrees, with gusts of up to 20 mph.

“Breezy, with a west wind 10 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph,” according to the NWS, is the prediction for Thursday. As the likelihood of rain and snow showers rises to 40%, temperatures will also take a chilly turn, with the high barely reaching 47 degrees and continuing to dip into Thursday night.

Friday is expected to be primarily cloudy with west winds of about 10 mph and gusts of up to 20 mph as the week comes to an end. With highs in the low 60s, Saturday and Sunday are predicted to be partly sunny. According to the NWS, there is a 20% chance of showers on Monday, which rises to 50% by Monday evening, although the weather could change at the beginning of the week.

The National Weather Service’s Morristown, Tennessee, Hazardous Weather Outlook warns of widespread gusts between 20 and 35 mph. Wind chills in the low to mid-30s are predicted for valleys, while wind chills in the teens are predicted for higher elevations until Friday. A Winter Weather Advisory is also in force from Thursday evening through Friday morning, with isolated regions expected to receive up to 5 inches of snow.

“Spotter activation is not needed at this time,” the National Weather Service stresses, indicating that although circumstances should be monitored, emergency weather spotting is not now required.
