Winter Weather in Davidson, Tennessee

Davidson County Emergency Management estimated around 0.10 inches of ice accumulation across most of the county, with 0.25 to 0.50 inches of ice accumulation at elevations above 900 feet. Ice formed on several bridges and overpasses across the county, resulting in several vehicle accidents. Ice on the 3rd Avenue Bridge over Interstate 65 just north of downtown Nashville contributed to a one vehicle accident with one fatality. Several trees and power lines were also knocked down in areas above 900 feet across the county.

Moisture overrunning a stalled frontal boundary created widespread freezing rain across the northwestern half of Middle Tennessee from the late evening hours on December 7 into the morning of December 8. Since much of the ice accumulation that occurred on December 6 did not melt, these additional ice accumulations resulted in widespread tree damage and power outages across parts of northwest Middle Tennessee.
