March 11th-13th Winter Weather Event. Winter's last gasp?

Sadly it appears oriented due E-W right now. -
March 11th-13th Winter Weather Event. Winter's last gasp?
dwagner88 replied to Windspeed's topic in Tennessee Valley
At this point I’m looking for the fly in the ointment. I can’t help but notice robust convection originating in the gulf around 200 miles due south of the FL/AL border. It is persistent and appears unmoving. I’m wondering what affect it will have on moisture transport later if it doesn’t clear. -

There has been a trend this evening in showing a convective feature running along I-75 from Hamilton county up through Knox county. Wherever that sets up is in for quite a show from Mother Nature tonight. It reminds me of the MCV that formed in the February 2014 storm over Birmingham and travelled up the I-59 and I-75 corridors. I got around 4” additional snow (and some thunder) just from that feature during that event. -

Just looked at the GFS. Almost had a stroke. -

Wow. 12Z NAM just took Chattanooga from 1” to 7”. Definitely more in line with other modeling. I’m still thinking 2-4” here. Tempering expectations. The mountains could certainly see 7”+. I’m about to go for a run in the 65 degree sunshine. 12 hours from now it should be dumping snow. -

The GFS appears to be quite sensitive to the Eastman Chemical snow hole of despair. You can always see Kingsport. -

They finally implemented what I've been asking for! It never made sense to have the same warning criteria down here as Johnson City. -

We have had a couple of events this winter advertise accumulations for 100% of the state. None have delivered so far. Is this “the chosen one”? -

I’ll also add that the HRRR appears to show a dramatic improvement in BL temps throughout the southern valley on this run. 2.4” is the minimum over the UHI downtown on the river. Looks like most of Hamilton county is in the 3-4” range. That would be fantastic. As bad as the last two years were, I would settle for enough to cover the grass. -

I’m secretly overjoyed that 99% of NC misses out on this. I’ll consider it reverse CAD. -

Held steady here with 3.37”. In an encouraging change, zero members show a total shutout. One only has 0.25” or so. Big dog here is around 9”. -

I’m honestly a little surprised at the winter storm watch. I expected the typical valley winter product black hole. I think that indicates they are at least considering a higher end event, even down here. -

Looks a lot like the Euro cut in half to me. -

They seem to rely heavily on the NBM. It also tends to be the most conservative model. -

I see more heartbreak for Chattanooga. Haven’t we suffered enough this winter? At least we didn’t lose any storms to northern Florida this year. -
TN valley heavy rain/flooding week of whenever
dwagner88 replied to janetjanet998's topic in Tennessee Valley
You didn't miss anything. The only schools that delayed were those on Signal mountain. SR-8 (main hwy up) was closed due to debris from storm flows for a few hours this morning. At one point my employer had full or partial closures on 10 different state routes. I'm sure the local and county roads were even worse. -

Flooding problems area wide this morning. Probably the worst since the March 2020 tornado night. -
I just signed a contract on a new house. I’m moving out to Apison. The house sits at around 950’ in elevation on the back side of White Oak Mountain. It should do much better in winter events than my current house in the city at 780’.

Only time in my life I had to abandon my car and walk home. And it only snowed a little over an inch. This was the infamous Atlanta snowpocalypse.

Concerned about the GFS sniffing out flooding. This is the timeframe. It’s been a running tradition for 3 years now I think.

According to the wundermap it’s 64 here and 34 on Monteagle. That’s a 30 degree difference over about 40 miles.

I was happy to miss this one. It was 33-34 with rain the entire time here. Then we got a beautiful miller A with 8-10" of snow area wide right after.

January 28th-29th Clippers/NW Flow Obs/Last Minute Forecasts.
dwagner88 replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
There is a very heavy slug of moisture that is going to lay down some accumulation just south of Chattanooga across Ne Alabama and NW Georgia. What a miserable winter this has been.
