The coldest air of the season has the South in its sights and near-freezing temperatures could set new record lows across a wide swath of the region.
AccuWeather meteorologists are tracking a powerful disturbance as it sweeps through the central and eastern United States. While this storm brings the first snowflakes of the season to parts of the Northeast, areas farther south will be in line for a dose of bitter cold that some may not be accustomed to handling so early in the season.
"A shot of unseasonably cold air is headed for the mid-South early this week. Overnight lows are expected to be near- to below freezing Tuesday and Wednesday nights," summarized AccuWeather Meteorologist Joe Curtis.
The period from Monday night through Thursday morning looks to be the most frigid in the South as residents of Nashville, Tennessee, and Birmingham, Alabama, will wake up to lows near or just below freezing each day.
