KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tuesday is a Weather Impact Alert Day because of potential travel impacts from heavy rain and a few strong storms.

There will be widespread and possibly heavy rain from around sunrise into the late morning, with localized flooding becoming a possible concern during and after the morning commute.
