Winter 2023-2024 Outlook: How El Niño Will Impact Tennessee, the Bay Area, Snow, and DFW

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's winter outlook predicts wetter conditions for Tennessee and other parts of the United States due to the return of the El Niño weather pattern. This means chillier temperatures and increased precipitation, potentially leading to heavier snowfall. While temperatures may be slightly above average in parts of Tennessee, the wetter atmosphere will make the cold weather feel colder. The forecast does not specify how much precipitation will fall as rain, snow, or ice, but overall, more precipitation is expected during the winter season.
