NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The weather rollercoaster continues for the upcoming week as we turn our attention to accumulating snow chances on Wednesday.

That is why we are issuing a Storm 5 Alert from Tuesday at 8 p.m. until Wednesday afternoon.

Cold air will be in place all week, and an area of low pressure that will develop to our south will bring moisture up from the Gulf. That moisture along with temperatures below freezing will support snow.

Currently, the winter storm warning in West Tennessee is from noon Tuesday to noon Wednesday. Look for the warnings to be expanded to the east later today.

It's still too early to tell just how much snow will fall, but chances for one inch or more are looking good across the region.

By Wednesday high temperatures will top out in the 20s with lows in the teens across the NewsChannel 5 coverage area. With a breezy northerly wind, it will feel like it is in the single digits across parts of Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky.
