    Yes, pretty similar! I know they don't offer a whole not now, but it is encouraging that the trends are going up as opposed to down for sure. Seems like opposite is more of the norm.

    The lastest nam looked like an improvement for eastern areas. Less downsloping and a slightly quicker changeover.

    Got clouds moving in multiple directions here in Knox. High clouds from west to east and low clouds moving from south to north and even some coming from southeast to northwest. I don't know what that means or if it means anything in regards to this system, but thought I would share this observation. Pretty odd looking up at the sky right now. Hope everyone stays safe!

    I am with you and Stove on this one. If it keeps showing a storm, I am gonna expect a sloppy dusting until the ground shows otherwise. This year:

    It's been a fairly average winter here in Knoxville. Got about 4 inches at Christmas, 1 last night and a handful of Dustings. Probably puts us pretty close to seasonal average. But way better in comparison to past couple years for sure!

    Could the tennis and ping ponging on models be due to struggling to recognize p-types?

    I think I remember that. I was in JC and it was like 50 degrees but up near Kingsport they had snow. It was like a super heated line up the spine of the Apps and the foothills immediate to them. My parents in Anderson county had a few inches and Knox saw snow. It was almost like a mini cad event in the valley. Cold air banked up against the plateau. It was a odd storm. I remember it vividly because I was pissed at getting blanked. LOL

    My goodness, if that verifies and it then rains a bunch it is gonna be a mess.

    Maybe for the potential flash freeze? It is pretty wet. Don't know if the wind will dry it up before the cold though.

    Was sprinkling here at the house at 33. Some stations at 32 here in the valley.
  11. Silas Lang
    GFS looks like the cold air is a little further east. Starting to creep into the valley on Tuesday morning.

    Is there any chance that ice could fall as sleet, snow, or mix? Anything else is better than ice. Or any chance it could cut north? Would rather a cutter than ice.

    Kind of nervous about temps here in the valley and dry slotting. Not really feeling it to be honest. Seems any time I have to worry about that it means some snow TV and a patchy dusting at best. I would love to be wrong but climatology usually wins at the end of the day. Mountains and plateau will get theirs.
  14. Silas Lang
    Is this even nwf or is it coming more from North/northeast? Winds here are NNE.
  15. Silas Lang
    Getting snow real tiny flakes now but sticking again at 32.
  16. Silas Lang
    Sleet, snow, and chunks of ice falling from the sky. Crazy how some of it is clumping up as it falls. Already coated everything and out performed the last 2 "events" here.
  17. Silas Lang
    Woke up to a dusting here in Knox. Some fine dandruff falling right now at a steady clip.
  18. Silas Lang
    Yeah, was colder than news stations were showing at my house this morning. My weather station was at a frosty 24 in Knox. Ground should be pretty cold with little sun today as well.

    While not a lot of direct hits persay, the pattern is ripe looking at the models. I like where we are. Much better to be where we are when the inevitable NW trends set in. Regardless, feels like we are playing with house money after the Christmas snow.
  20. Silas Lang
    Yeah upon closer inspection it looks like the 500 vortex map correlates with what is happening on the low cloud fraction map, with some clouds crashing against the mountains.
  21. Silas Lang
    Noticed this in MRX discussion: Another spoke of cold air aloft rotates across the area during the afternoon Christmas Day. Scattered snow showers and/or flurries expected across southwest Virginia and northeast Tennessee. An additional light accumulations possible, generally less than 1/2 inch. This is separate from the banding depicted on the models after the main moisture pulls away, correct?

    3k Nam wanting to bump up Knoxville to warning category.

    Hey everyone, been a while and I don't post a whole lot but I am now living in the Knoxville area after living in Asheville for a few years. I posted somewhat infrequently when I lived in Johnson City several years before AVL. Anyway, just wanted to say hello! I appreciate this forum and I am looking forward to posting some obs. Hopefully this Friday.
  24. Silas Lang
    Yeah, at my house it is 35 but the models don't seem to have me getting there for another 4 or 5 hours.

    In Swannanoa my truck was covered in ice from sleet/rain/snow mix when I got off work. Just rain here in South Asheville.
