Jan 30th-February 1st 2026 Arctic Blast/ULL Snow OBS Thread.
Knoxtron replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Pixie dust snow showers still going since about 9pm last night, picked up another 1/2inch or so but hard to tell with how much is blowing around Winds finally died down a little (average of 5-8 mph versus 15-20 over the last 36 hours). Hoping the 0° windchill feels less biting than the -15° yesterday or I may have a 3 year old revolt haha Roads covered and very much a gamble without chains. Anyone in the chatt area get more snow last night? Curious if school with happen tomorrow, have my doubts -
Yeah flatop has a good 3-5" currently, pouring tiny flakes with drifts everywhere. Roads are completely covered and impassable without chains Current 8 with a windchill of -10, super fun snow to sled in but dang that cold hurts haha The amount of lake affect moisture caught up/swirling around in the rust belt headed our way is promising!

Current 30 with .3-.5 ice accumulation. Winds are whipping and I can hear tree/limb falls everywhere. Still have power but not expecting it for long.

So beautiful! Looks like were in a dry slot near chatt, still having some fine sleet/freezing rain under 0 returns. Temps slowly climbing to 27 in the last two hours, switching from out of the north to predominantly out of the east in the same time-frame Noticing the southern plateau is slightly warmer now as compared to valley/mid tn lower elevations.

Quick question, looking at correlation coefficient out of Huntsville. Would the yellow streaks represent the sleet to freezing rain line?

Oh wow! Is that the place right off 111/Lewis chapel? We've wondered if that is ever open Great place to be, kinda incredible the develope and gentrification going on. 4 years ago i had 2 neighbors within 1/2 mile of me. Now it's more like 20 lol, thankfully we have a large heavily forested lot so kinda still get the privacy. Hit me up if you ever have any questions! looking for a buddy to try some weather forecating via hang-gliding with haha

Currently 24.6 up on wardens ridge between dunlap and soddy. Strangley enough we warmed up 5 degrees from 4-430 am then dropped back to 24 quickly Mostly sleet but every now and then we get a burst of snow. Sure looking like we will get a decent icing soon, hoping the impacts are not catastrophic over a large area. We would be a low priority to getting power back. I have a generator hooked to 500 gallon propane tank but we have had a lot of Californian's build dream houses around us this year and not one of them have planned it appears.

Completely random but if you are bored ask Google Gemini to describe specific model runs and trends... Its kind of insane how much its improved recently. Absolutely not suggesting it is correct or should be relied on, more that is amazing that is can view model runs and discuss specifics on low placements. I set Gemini to give me an alert as soon as the 12z Runs are complete with an update on changes to the southern low placement, curious if its accurate and how quickly it is able to pull the information (or even where it is getting the info).
