    Best week of winter I've had since moving to east TN in 1994. No complaints here at all. Now to find some fish that are biting.

    I've seen enough. I hereby declare kayaking season.

    I had to head up to Jacksboro today and man, I nearly broke an axel. I've never seen the interstate in such bad shape. I was also fortunate enough to get stuck at the Caryville on-ramp while they shut I-75 down to patch some holes. Also, it's amazing how much fog builds over there around Cove Lake. Campbell county really is another world lol.

    Got another huge bonfire going. I don't want this to end. May have to move to Canada.

    You know it's been a helluva week of winter weather when I can't even be bothered to keep track of amounts anymore.

    Really happy with the snow today. Been coming down at a pretty good rate for central valley NW flow.

    I'm preparing for a power outage. Got candles, battery packs, and DC lighting ready to go. Propane stoves and pellet fire pit if needed.

    Just walked to the road to take garbage out and yep, slicker than snot. Packed snow from tire tracks is hard to walk on. My car has a layer of glaze on it. Currently 29.5, I briefly topped out at 32 this afternoon. It'll be interesting to see if it drops any more. Glad I'm not having to drive in it, whew.

    Well, with zero radar returns overhead we're still spitting out steady fine ice pellets at 21 degrees. This is certainly one for the record books.

    Ripping sleet now. Unbelievable.

    I've never seen anything like this in my life. Somehow it's still managing to snow on this glacier at 12:30am.
  12. Stovepipe
    Biggest flakes of the event hitting here now. Got dimes, nickels, and even a quarter or two mixing in with those heavy returns. My gut tells me this is the last blast but who knows. Again, very very very grateful.

    Slowed down a bit here, looks like a bit more is gonna roll through on radar. Damn near 24 hours of snowfall, can't complain at all. Got a porch fire going in the solo stove. Just gonna soak it all in.
  14. Stovepipe
    Yeah, that's gonna leave a mark. Congrats!
  15. Stovepipe
    It just keeps pounding.

    I'm really sorry about the warm nose. But this pic relates to me as I've been measuring my accums by peeing my name in the snow and timing how long it takes to fill in. Yes I'm a weirdo. And yes it's snowing very hard here.

    Sand blasting pixie dust here at the moment but radar says that's about to change. Temp still dropping, down to 25.5.
  18. Stovepipe
    The temp is dropping here, currently 26, wind has picked up, still at about the heaviest snow of the day. I measured about 7 inches in spots.

    You are an absolute treasure in this forum, thank you for that post and all that you do. This is incredibly useful information to reflect on going forward.

    I'm gonna go ahead and say this is the best snow experience I've had since moving to east TN in 1994. Not necessarily the biggest flakes or heaviest convective bands but damn good. I was here for Jan/Feb 96. March 2022 was some of the hardest I've seen fall and possibly the most accumulation at my area. But this long duration event is a thing of beauty. I'm over the 6 inch mark currently and the scene outside is picture perfect dime ripping heavy snow with fatty radar returns on the way. Best east TN storm for me. Very very grateful.
  21. Stovepipe
    Yeah, heaviest snow of the day here too, ripping dimes out there!
  22. Stovepipe
    There we go, I'm glad you got pasted, thanks for the pic!
  23. Stovepipe
    I did not, but am not surprised in the least. I hope John posts more shenanigans from the scanner. People lose their got dang minds when it snows around here.
  24. Stovepipe
    Yeah the wind and flake size increased with this band, friggin awesome.
  25. Stovepipe
    It's the dumbasses that make it not fun out there, otherwise I'd love to be cruising around in the Subaru.
