Probably the strongest segment of our slowly decaying line is entering Jefferson and about to enter Blount counties.

Significant weather alert til 2 a.m.

Wind gusts to 40-50 mph will accompany the line along with brief torrential rains. Not noticing much lightning, although there could be some.

Temperatures will drop about 10 degrees behind the line also.
