We know the question on your mind, Music City: When’s it going to get warm again?
Don’t put away the sleds just yet. We might see more snowfall tonight going into Wednesday morning thanks to the polar vortex sweeping the US, but looking ahead a few weeks, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Prediction Center says Nashville has a 33-40% chance of temperatures being higher than normal this spring.
While exact weather conditions typically can’t be predicted more than a week out, keep reading to see what spring has in store for Music City based on NOAA’s temperature and precipitation forecasts.
Reminder: The first day of spring is Thursday, March 20.
