Weather forecast
Here's the forecast for the week.
Snow, ice and frigid weather caused schools and agencies to close and delay Wednesday across the Chattanooga area and more closings and delays have been announced for Thursday.
According to Paul Barys, chief meteorologist for WRCB-TV, the bitterly cold air should begin to dissipate over the next few days, but the low temperatures Wednesday night and into Thursday morning will be in the mid 20s. Clouds are also expected to increase along with a small chance for a flurry or two. Thursday should be mostly sunny as the highs climb into the mid 40s.
