    Big GFS run for TN.
  2. Silas Lang
    Looks like some big overrunning potential still showing up on the GFS.

    Ah, forget about snow days, schools will be getting some flood days instead. Reminds me of February a few years ago, forget which one, but it was rain, rain, rain.

    The 6z GFS has the storm from the 18z (Jan 29), just a bit further east. It was gone on the 0z run. Another period to watch.

    Real nice look. Great storm track with the classic low on the gulf coast to atlantic coast track.

    Hopefully the cold pattern materializes and actually happens. I swear, outside of 5 days, the models show a different solution everytime. Maybe that's a sign they are struggling with an upcoming pattern change?

    Had a nice snow burst earlier when I was outside in the jacuzzi, living the dream with a nice beverage in hand. Still snowing lightly, but looks to be winding down. Not much, but will probably end this with a solid dusting. Hey, that's pretty great for the central valley in a NWF event. I can't complain as that's an over performer considering the situation. Any reports from Johnson City? That was the best location I have lived in for these types of events. Seems like we could squeeze out an inch, which is feasting for NWF in the valley.

    It looks like the RGEM is picking up the "streamers" a bit better than the NAM, which shows no real evidence of them on the snow maps. Now, even if the RGEM is correct on some streamers bursting through the valley, where they set up is anyone's guess. Places could get blanked, while others could get a dusting to an inch. These things are very hard to predict. NAM seems convinced this is a typical elevation event.

    Wow, a tornado warning has been issued for Jefferson County. Stay safe, folks. Pretty intense storms so far.

    I don't know how much this plays a part, but it seems pretty common to get a storm on MLK day weekend. We had snow on the ground last year at this time.
  11. Silas Lang
    Yup. I just took the dog for a walk at Adair Park and ran into a few back roads that looked the same. We got up to the 47 here yesterday with sun and still have a lot of snow in spots. I guess this is the result of having the ground so cold. Pretty impressive as this snow was pretty light and fluffy. I expected it to melt quickly.
  12. Silas Lang
    Good lord, this is even more concerning. I would have expected at least 50% more that way. Seriously, what's going on?
  13. Silas Lang
    Can someone smarter than me please explain why we have so much snow in the valley? Trying to understand what's at work here.
  14. Silas Lang
    Yeah, roads are bad. Even well travelled Clinton Highway and Merchants were bad an hour ago.
  15. Silas Lang
    Got over an inch here in Knox. Still coming down. Most impressive clipper in years that I can remember.
  16. Silas Lang
    Yup. Already have a thick dusting here in Knoxville. lol of course the clipper brings more snow than the big historic front. Further proof that big storms and events are not as good as little ones most of the time in the valley.
  17. Silas Lang
    Pretty interesting evolution on the NAM. Don't think I have seen a clipper redevelop in the valley before. Plateau usually kills it for us.
  18. Silas Lang
    Yeah, today was nice in comparison to yesterday. Cold, but manageable with the sun.
  19. Silas Lang
    Woke up to some light powder on the deck and some very light, fine flakes flying around. Low was 3 last night. The temp has already tripled to 9! lol
  20. Silas Lang
    Tomorrow is going to feel warm compared to today. Brutal cold. High of 9 here.
  21. Silas Lang
    Radar not looking too hot now. Still wondering about that low level moisture. Any observations? Is it snowing in places where nothing is showing on radar?
  22. Silas Lang
    I know we are pretty much in a now casting scenario, but the NAM looked better for everyone. Last 3 runs.
  23. Silas Lang
    Looks like the front is moving a tick faster on modeling. For example, the HRRR now has Knoxville below freezing at 12 instead of 1. I think that's been the trend everywhere?
  24. Silas Lang
    That's my guess. Downsloping. Seems pretty consistent with topography. Counties directly bordering the plateau to the east get the worst shaft.
  25. Silas Lang
    Looks like the cold air is a lot slower to get here on the RGEM as well.
