00:00Our coverage continues right now with Allie Reed. There she is in Music City.

00:03Oh goodness, it looks fun, doesn't it Jeff? I hope you can hear the sarcasm in my voice. Allie,

00:09you join us from Nashville. Can you just break down some of those impacts that are being felt?

00:18Well, no sarcasm in your voice. It actually is a blast to be here along Broadway in Nashville,

00:24Tennessee. The snow is certainly still falling here in the Music City. There's no doubt about

00:30that. And we've seen that pick up over the last couple of hours. Earlier this morning,

00:34things were much quieter, right? But now you can take a look at what Broadway,

00:37the conditions are here along the street. It is that slushy, wet type of snow that's coming

00:43down here. And it is packing down on the grounds, making conditions a little bit harder to travel

00:48along the roadway here. There's no doubt about that. If we can, let's take to some video on

00:53your screen. This was hours ago when we started our morning here along Broadway. My photographer,

00:59Andy, was roving about the area to show what conditions were looking like here. N-dot,

01:04T-dot, making their way through town, brining. That was starting three days ago, but also

01:10salting the roads over the last couple of days, too. Now, on top of that, let's take to some

01:15other video. This was a beautiful drone shot that Andy was able to get, really showing you what

01:21Broadway looked like earlier. Very different than anything that we are seeing right now.

01:25So that gives you kind of a good comparison as to what it was very early this morning and now

01:30what it's getting into the late afternoon and evening. One more video I'd like to show for you.

01:35This was within the hour we were over at BNA, that's Nashville's airport, to show you the de-icing

01:40here in town. There are over 300 airline cancellations going in and out of BNA,

01:48and there are about 50 delays right now. So that gives you an idea of where things are at.

01:52All right, let's bring you back live. There's a couple of guys that are standing by. Come here.

01:56I know you want to be on TV. I see you. I see you eyeing us. Where are you from?

02:01Uh, I'm actually from Louisiana, but I live here in town now.

02:04Okay. How are you enjoying the snow this afternoon?

02:08The weather's not bad. It's not too cold, um, but it's, you know, it's cool for, like,

02:14the week that it's here or a couple days that it's here a year, and we don't get any more

02:18natural light. Now, I need to just point one thing out. Do you see me in my jacket, my snow pants?

02:23You're just rocking a light jacket tonight. You going for a workout?

02:27Oh, I was earlier. No gloves either. What are you doing?

02:31We were just kind of driving around in the snow, and, you know, it's not too bad out here.

02:35Yes, I was going to say, what are conditions like to you? I mean, you get, Nashville gets,

02:39what, maybe one or big snowfalls in a season, so.

02:42It's not too bad. I don't mind the cold.

02:45Okay. What's your name?

02:45I'm Sam.

02:46Sam. Allie. Pleasure to meet you. Thanks for chatting with me. I appreciate it.

02:50All right. We're going to send it back to the studio. Stay warm if you can.

02:54All right. He's all right. He's all good. All right. We'll check in with you in the

02:57next half hour, guys, as we continue to bring out the latest from Nashville, Tennessee.

03:02Allie, I appreciate the positivity. Honestly, making a snow day probably

03:08so bright there for many there in Nashville. Thank you so much for

03:12taking some time to spend with us. We'll check back in with you in a little bit.

03:16Nobody brings in somebody from the street better than Allie there,

03:19just to do the impromptu interview.

03:21It takes you right on in, and I love it.

03:23It's good. It's good stuff.

03:24Ackie Weathers, Allie Reed, everyone.
