Middle Tennessee moves towards normalcy as snow begins to melt
SUMMARY: Nashville and Middle Tennessee are recovering from a significant snowstorm that occurred on January 10-12, 2025, which resulted in three to six inches of snow across the region. Public transit and trash collection have returned to normal, though recycling pickups are temporarily suspended. While no districts have canceled school for Monday, Williamson County has closed parks and waste facilities. The storm impacted highways severely, with the Tennessee Highway Patrol responding to over 500 crashes, including three fatalities. Troopers assisted more than 870 stranded motorists and fielded over 1,700 emergency calls related to the storm.

SUMMARY: Yesterday marked the season’s first snowfall in several East Tennessee counties, leading to crews monitoring weather and road conditions. Early Saturday, roads in Campbell County were mostly clear, although some slick spots and covered side roads remained, particularly on hills. The Tennessee Highway Patrol urged caution, but I-75 was clear with vehicles traveling at posted speeds. Campbell County Sheriff Wayne Barton reported no unusual incidents, thanks to the preparedness of local agencies. The county has 16 plows for nearly 700 miles of roads, although they don’t pre-treat. Residents are advised to stay home for safety.
Wintry conditions and snow caused road conditions to change through the day Friday and into Saturday morning in Campbell County.
SUMMARY: Crews worked overnight to treat roads in the area, and Megan Fee reports live from Antioch. Currently at Bakertown Road near I24 and Haywood Lane, she notes that major roads are mostly clear, with some snowy entry and exit ramps. However, secondary roads remain icy, posing challenges for drivers and pedestrians. While main roads and highways look good thanks to plowing and salting efforts, caution is advised, especially in neighborhoods where conditions are slick. Megan will continue to assess the road conditions around Antioch.
