March 11th-13th Winter Weather Event. Winter's last gasp?
Jed33 replied to Windspeed's topic in Tennessee Valley
That’s cool I moved out to the lake outside of Russellville, so lost some elevation now, unfortunately will probably pay the price each time it snows. My wife and daughter had to go to a cheer competition this AM in Sevierville-she said it was heavier in Morristown where I used to live. She said she only had 1 place where the road was slick. -

How much do you have there? -

Snow has picked back up again. Maybe I can get to 3in. System just kinda ran out of steam from Morristown east and north. 2-3in amounts are the norm here -

It’s been a real struggle to surpass 2.5in here. I’m not sure what has caused the slow accumulation, but the returns just kept getting eaten up. Either dry air or downsloping or maybe both. Maybe the last part of this storm will be more kind to us in Hamblen and western Greene. Edit: Snow has picked up again here now moderate to heavy so we’ll see what happens now. The temp is 26 so that will definitely help with the ratio -

Went to bed at midnight and just woke up. Ground is covered and even the road is starting to cave heavy snow-looks like I have maybe close to 2in on cars. -

My office manager also lived in MI and has told me that before! If it’s not over a foot she said they don’t really think anything of it -

Does the Jap maple already have tender young shoots and leaves? If so, man I don’t know. Hopefully the snow will insulate it. I’ve seen cherries in bloom covered with 2in of snow and they were fine but it wasn’t nearly as cold as the projections for Sunday AM. Unfortunately at 10 degrees (and maybe lower depending on snowpack) I don’t know that you will be able to do very much more than the snow will do. If you cover them today with the sun out you will bake them and kill them. If you cover them with a sheet and get a heavy snow on them better have something to prop them up with so the sheet doesn’t get too heavy with the snow and crush them. Then there’s the whole so cold it may freeze inside the”dome” even with the sheets the wind also does as much damage as anything -

I just love the way this looks on the screen! This is the 0z GDPS (Canadian). This is as classic of a track and look for E TN as you can get. It may not pan out this way but it sure is pretty to look at! -

It ticked ever so slightly back south/southeast. Better than 18z for sure -

And look at the low temps Sunday AM in the lower single digits across the area! It has a cold bias though in general, but with 1/2 foot of snow on the ground it would certainly be possible -
Sleet mixing in currently temp is 36

Big time storm just rolled through here!

Thunder and lightning along with extremely heavy rain here this AM! Not just 1 or 2 lightning strikes either. This storm that just went through would make a summer time storm proud!

Snow flurries around here now too. No dusting, but flying in the air at least.

Yes, I remember that one well! I took the kids to school that morning and it had been flurrying off and on. Then, on the way home, the skies opened up and it was just pouring snow for awhile. The kids actually did not get dismissed for that one until normal time. Probably a good thing or could have been some trouble getting everyone home that morning. We had about 2in on the grass and elevated surfaces and probably about an inch on the roads. The snow hung around in the grass all day, but by evening most of the roads were fine where they salted and plowed. Kids made it home fine, but they felt cheated out of a snow day haha! Some of the biggest snows forum wide are from March and April. I’m not calling for a repeat of that, but it’s possible. I remember some from my childhood and that was when I lived in N MS.

Woke up to a light dusting on cars and elevated surfaces. Kinda surprised actually. Temp is 30.

Having lived in W TN and N MS for 25 years of my life I’ve seen many cases of where the cold air just way overperforms in that area. CAD almost in a way. There are really no mtns north of the area to block it, and when the cold air comes down, it banks up against the ozarks to the west. It basically just gets funneled right down the MS river. It’s almost always a shallow, very close to the surface cold airmass. I’ve seen so many times where the NWS was playing catch up to how far south and east the cold was settling and how long it held on. If you live in that area esp. W TN and E AR you definitely need to be ready for this one!

My my what a run by the 0z GFS! Gotta wonder if that’s what February and March 1960 would have looked like if you could have run it back in the day!

Congrats to everyone who picked up something! We had a couple decent snow showers that put down a dusting overnight but that was about it. Couldn’t make a connection with a decent band here. -
