Nashville has recorded it latest first freeze in more than a century.

When the temperature at the National Weather Service station dipped briefly to 31 degrees at 5:53 a.m. Friday, it was the first freezing temperature this fall.

Weather service meteorologist Bobby Boyd said that ties this Nov. 27 with the same date in 1902 for the first freezing weather recorded in Nashville.

The city's average date for its first 32 degree or colder weather is Oct. 28.

The earliest date for a first freeze in Nashville is Oct. 2. That occurred in 1984.
