Heavy Snow in Montgomery, Tennessee

Three inches of total snowfall accumulation occurred across the county. A newspaper also reported that the Clarksville Police reported 94 wrecks occurred between 1 pm and 6:45 pm on Wednesday, February 9th, including 13 accidents with injuries. Total amount of individuals injuried and the extent of individual injuries, along with type of damage to vehicles and damage cost to vehicles, were unknown. This total snowfall accumulation resulted in public and some private primary, secondary, and higher education school closures across the county, along with closures or postponement of other civic engagements across the county for the remainder of that day and night on Wednesday, February 9th, as travel across roads throughout the county became hazardous due to the accumulating snowfall.

With temperatures from the afternoon through evening hours remaining in the 20s, there was enough moisture associated with a west to east moving cold frontal passage and southwesterly upper level flow aloft, across the mid state for a significant snowfall event to occur across all of Middle Tennessee on Wednesday, February 9th. Total snowfall accumulations ranged from one half of an inch to five inches across northern portions of the Cumberland Plateau.
