NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Kentucky and Tennessee are forecast to experience a quieter, drier winter pattern from January 10–14, with below-normal precipitation expected and limited chances for impactful rain or snow.
The National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center reports that most areas in both states are likely to see below-average precipitation over the 6–10 day period, while temperatures trend near or above seasonal averages. This pattern reduces the number of storm systems and limits opportunities for widespread precipitation.
In Kentucky, including Louisville, Lexington, and Bowling Green, rain chances remain low, with only isolated light showers possible. Snow risk is minimal, mostly limited to brief overnight periods in eastern or higher-elevation areas. Tennessee cities like Nashville, Clarksville, and Knoxville will see mainly dry conditions, occasional clouds, and mild daytime temperatures. East Tennessee’s higher terrain may experience spotty light precipitation, though measurable snow is unlikely.
Travel impacts are expected to be minor. Roads should remain favorable, though drivers are advised to stay alert in colder valleys or elevated areas where brief slick spots could occur.
Overall, the forecast supports below-average precipitation and low-impact weather, with no widespread winter weather alerts anticipated at this time.
