  1. That's true. I think the big letdown with this Storm and the earlier misses have just got some rather down. That's understandable. As stated earlier, I've saw Winters that we kept getting shafted and others completely go our way in a big way. We take what we get. Can't change it.
  2. I know this storm turned out to be a disappointment for Folks in the Great Valley and the Winter as a whole so far, if you are a Snow lover. I know some agree while others may not. "Normals" have changed over the Year's. Many look at their particular location, the now, other's the past and see the Winter from those perspective Viewpoints. Seasonal Snowfall Average for Knoxville around the turn of the 20th century was probably around 20", maybe more. Pennington gap for example, averaged 20.7" in the 1950-1980 Data Period and that was one of the lowest elevated areas within the Town Limits AND measured at one location and many times well after the Snow had settled drifted or compacted. Unlike Today's Standards. This Winter has not been the worst so far but has not been great or even up to Par at this Juncture,in comparing past Averages and Today's irt Snow Amounts. All the great Valley is below Average regarding Snowfall even with The Now Average. Not by much for many however, as the "Normal" is so low for much of the Valley. I'm neither a Debbie downer or Optimist but a Realist. My 2 Cents Perspective based on Stats and being an Antique Forecaster.
  3. Yeah, basically what I was saying with different wording, lol.
  4. Yeah, So far just been basically unlucky with timing and placement of Systems. I've saw Winter's where that continued(anguish one's) and other's where we got in on the action in a great way.
  5. Hopefully that pans out but i'm not overly confident. May have predominantly bare ground or a dusting at the most while areas west, north and east are Ice and Snow covered. One of those Winter's so far. Hopefully things change.
  6. Received 15 inches from that Blizzard. 4-6' Drifts. Heavy Rain turned to Heavy Snow around 1:30 AM the 13th with sustained 30-45 MPH Winds. The Snow ended by 8 AM. I measured 2.5 inches of Rain in the Gauge before the changeover. I wish I'd stayed up and watched that Snow fall. The rates had to of been 2-4 inches per Hour for a period to accumulate to so much on a waterlogged ground in such a short period of Time. The Temperature fell into the mid 20's that Morning.
  7. Cincinnati to Dayton Ohio now 13-15" still snowing. Nice live Cams in that area on YouTube.
