WINTER STORM WARNING FOR MIDDLE U.S./RAIN AND COLDER TEMPS FOR US
As the mid U.S. gets another snow storm, we're getting rain today, and much, much colder temperatures by the end of the day. That means as you walk out the door today, keep in mind it's supposed to be down into the 30s, possibly by the time you leave work this afternoon. Some good news, though: temperatures are supposed to be up near 70 on Saturday and Sunday.

NASHVILLE SNOW
We have flurries! Forecasters say this little bit of snow we're getting may get heavy enough to give us an inch of accumulation by tomorrow morning. Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) crews have already been out putting the salt-brine mix on the roads to keep them from icing up.

SNOWSTORM
People in the Midwest and Central Plains are digging out from a huge snowstorm that's now moved into New England.  The storm already dumped as much as a foot of snow on parts of Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Oklahoma, and Texas.  

In Today's News, below: Metro Nashville Public Schools is hiring, some local celebrities are making cameo appearances on tonight's "Nashville," a determined teenager gets a better job than he'd expected, the new best time to buy plane tickets, and more.

SCIENTISTS SAY 72 IS THE NEW 30

NEW STORM HITS U-S
Just a few days after a huge snowstorm pounded the Great Plains, a second big storm is bringing what the weather service calls, "life threatening and crippling blizzard conditions."  It's already begun, cancelling flights and closing schools from Colorado to Texas.  It's bringing rain to us here later today and tonight, and colder temperatures tomorrow. 

GIANT WINTER STORM LOSING PUNCH
The giant winter storm that's hammering 20 states is dying down a little. Yesterday, storms closed schools, made a mess of air travel and have been blamed for at least one death in Nebraska.
