  1. First off Brother, there was no pun thrown toward anyone in the subforum.. I have always respected and looked forward to your input as well as others. I apologize for any misunderstanding. What I posted was accurate and meant as I stated, to be on a positive note. Carvers had made mention recently of how the weeklies did that last month and yes, there were Mets and others that bought into it. Btw, I'm not just a novice poster or weenie for that matter. Been around as long or longer than many on here. Health went down a few years ago along with a life altering event of which I retired from meteorology. Since, I want to remain anonymous. Carvers may have an idea of who I am. I enjoy being back in the discussions as weather has been a passion of mine for over 40 years. I must say, my reception and respect on here from what it was during my previous time is about like night and day.
  2. Regardless of how the weeklies look, with the extended warm period, the way this season has gone thus far, it is possible it will be wrong as it was a couple weeks ago when many(including mets) bought into it. Yes, the Mjo is discouraging but, other factors have been known to mitigate it's effects. Definitely not saying the long mild period won't happen, just looking at the possible bright side.
  3. Looks real close for here as wound up with 5-6 inches.
  4. How much have you got now blunder ? Wound up with about 5 here b4 it mixed with lt sleet as temp. Went above freezing. Already lost a half inch from melting and compaction.
  5. 3.5 to 4 inches here. Half inch of sleet snow mix overnight. Downsloping from high knob landform hurt us here in much of Lee county.
  6. How often does Kingsport outdo you ??? Lol
  7. Moderate to Heavy snow here since about 8:30 . 3.5 inches now. About a half inch of sleet and snow up until this began. Some flakes 2" diameter!
  8. Most guidance has us anywhere from 12 to 20 inches. Of course that's 10.1 ratio.
  9. First flakes began here in Jonesville just before 10 and is currently snowing moderately. Ground covering. Temp. 33.
  10. Everything getting white quick here. Currently 33 with moderate snow.
  11. Snow just starting here. All snow. Temp. 35.
  12. Apparently, the GooFuS is still the Debbie downer for plateau and Cumberland gap area. Actually decreased amounts from 12z. Glad it'll be put to rest at end of year. So many outlets are still putting most of the weight with this storm on it. Unreal!
  13. With the low dp and Temps upper 30s here now, should be no problem starting as snow.
  14. Heaviest hourly fall I've witnessed was about 6" on 2-14-1986. No doubt rates were higher at times within that hour.
  15. I'm with you buddy. Total slap in the face for us ! Wouldn't have been so bad had we lost it on the modeling just a couple days ago but...this close. Sure will squelch any excitement for anything shown thru the Winter until a day or so b4.
  16. Yeah, hopefully system speeds up some or hp slows down and keeps 850 south.
  17. Sure wish the system would speed up as to get ahead of the HP. As it stands , it appears the hp is moving faster and building further east. Still think we'll be ok as long as it just remains at least over the top of the lp. as the move east.
  18. There's almost always that worrisome, what I call the "Tennessee Valley effect". Warm nose shooting up the valley between the Cumberlands and the Smokies. Also, another aspect is the downsloping.
  19. Measurement of 2.25 inches here this morning. Hopefully, last nights trends for our upcoming storm don't continue.
  20. Here's an article describing the Dec. 18-19 2009 event. https://www.highknoblandform.com/2010/01/mega-disaster-storm-of-december-2009.html?m=1
  21. Oh yeah, that was the one that broke down alot of trees and power lines. Electric was out for about 2 days at my home. 9 inches officially in Jonesville. It started and stayed mixed here until late afternoon the 18th b4 going to heavy snow. Upper Lee County , wise and Russell absolutely got pulverized. All snow with 28 inches reported in the Wise area. Electric was out for a week or more in places.
  22. The high at my home in Jonesville today was 40. Yesterday was 31. Tuesday, 28.
  23. Yeah, a terrible winter overall. Severe storms and flooding in the heart of it. Feb. Was cold with several minor snowfalls (1-2" deals)here. March ha a rain to thundersnow event that produced a quick 4 inches in the valley's with much more upper Lee County and Wise Co. and Harlan and Letcher counties in Ky. Where over a foot fell.
  24. Light snow showers here so far in Lee County, Va.
