One of the things I enjoy about winter weather in East Tennessee is the quick turn-around.  Here we were at five degrees last Friday and we're going to be close to 60 this Friday.  The warming trend takes it up a notch today as we'll all make it above freezing. Knoxville's headed for right at 50 while places like Jamestown, Crossville, La Follette, Pittman Center, and Rutledge crawl above freezing with highs making it into the 40s.  Even at that, it'll likely be up in the day Friday before the thaw takes place in most every corner of the viewing area.
