Expect a sky full of sunshine with bitter wind chills on Tuesday

The potential for a significant winter event for this weekend has increased in probability enough to warrant attention. While significant snow and ice are possible, where exactly the snow versus ice versus mixed precipitation bands set up is still highly uncertain. For now, residents of Campbell County, East Tennessee, Southwest Virginia, and Southwest North Carolina should check their winter kits and supplies and be prepared before the weekend arrives.

LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF)- It will be cold and dry through Tuesday night, with the coldest conditions Monday night into Tuesday when below zero wind chills will be possible in the higher elevations. Monday night’s air temperature dips to 11 above.
