Light snowfall comes to area

NASHVILLE (AP) ? Residents across much of Middle Tennessee awoke yesterday to at least an inch of snow, which authorities blamed for dozens of mostly minor traffic accidents.

Weather officials attributed the accumulation to a cold front moving southeast across the Ohio Valley.

Tennessee Department of Safety spokesman Mike Browning said officers have reported about 50 accidents on interstates and highways throughout Middle Tennessee. Officers say 13 of those wrecks had minor injuries.

A light snowfall was expected to continue through last night and into early parts of this morning. Considerable accumulation is not expected.

Weather officials say temperatures for most of the state will remain very cold today, with highs only reaching the low-30s.
