There’s a chance that certain parts of East Tennessee might see some light snow on Monday night and into Tuesday. Here’s where:
Between December 2 and 3, Storm Team 6 is monitoring the likelihood of snowfall in the area.
In addition to the possibility of snow, extremely cold temperatures are predicted for Monday night and Tuesday morning, with lows in the lower 20s and high teens. Temperatures on Tuesday morning could drop to barely 13 degrees for Mount Le Conte.
Although there is a greater possibility of snowfall at the highest elevations, snowfall is also possible in the lower regions along the Cumberland Plateau and the Great Smoky Mountains.
Snowfall at the Smoky Mountains’ highest peaks, like Mount LeConte, can range from two to four inches. A coating of snow may fall in lower elevations like Gatlinburg and Newport, but it is unlikely to be more than half an inch.
Flurries may fall in the valley, but accumulation is not anticipated.

Although there might be some snowfall on Tuesday morning, it doesn’t appear to be expected to remain long. Most of East Tennessee will see temperatures return to the mid- to upper-thirties on Tuesday.
