NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – Some Middle Tennessee school districts have closed as snow showers will continue to come in from the north overnight.

Among the counties closed are Wilson, Putnam, and Overton. Visit wkrn.com/closings for an updated list.

A Winter Weather Advisory has also been extended until 6 a.m. Wednesday since the snow will come and go through Tuesday, both day and night. See the advisories at wkrn.com/alerts.

Temperatures drop overnight Monday into the mid-20s, causing concern for roadways as snow melts and refreezes.

The overnight snow showers could also be a concern in areas where it has fallen the heaviest. Mt. Juliet police warned residents Monday evening to stay off the roads. Get the latest traffic at wkrn.com/traffic.

The occasional showers will continue through Tuesday with high temperatures barely reaching freezing, so there will continue to be a concern for slick spots of roads.

The snow might not wind down in eastern portions of Middle Tennessee like Crossville until early Wednesday morning. Click here for the News 2 StormTracker Forecast. 

We could see a dusting to up to 1 inch in the Nashville area and much of Middle Tennessee through Tuesday night.

Eastern counties could see 1 to 2 inches of snow, and we can’t rule out 2 to 3 inches in the higher elevations of the Cumberland Plateau.
