Single-digit temps make your heater work harder. Reducing electricity draw in other areas can reduce demand. Turn off extra lights. Set thermostat to 68 degrees or lower as tolerable. Unplug chargers & countertop appliances that have a continuous display or standby mode.

Be prepared for the frigid temperatures coming tonight. Williamson Co. expected to get less than 1 inch of snow; bridges/exit ramps may be slick. Bundle up and slow down if you go out.
Here's a time lapse showing the dreaded temperature drop from the 20s this afternoon to near zero in some places by tomorrow morning.

If you do not HAVE to travel today, please stay off the roads. If you do drive, SLOW DOWN. We've seen reports of multiple drivers spinning out on turns and straightaways. Road conditions are deteriorating, and the @NWSNashville does predict more snow throughout the day.
