Good, it won't kill the trees but maybe it'll destroy those awful Bradford Pear blooms that stink like holy hell.

They only last a few weeks anyway. Smell like sweaty gym socks. Soft wood, branches tear off, who would want one?

Agreed! They're hybrid trees, they are more dangerous than most people think. My neighbor had a giant branch break off during a storm in his front yard. It was half blocking his front door and dented up one of his vehicles. I'm not sure who would want one.

I really think it’ll be only be at the max 3 days of real cold. Lows overnight will start to dip down back to the 30’s but it’s still worrisome for farmers, especially Florida.

THE peach farmers are taking a hit. They don’t have anywhere close to enough chill hours this season. Sad.

Is this rain event going to be limited to our area, or will it be in middle Tennessee as well?

There's not much to say other than some gusty winds along the frontal passage. Morristown didn't issue a wind advisory.
