My step brother lives in that area. Y’all hit the jackpot!
.
Where about?
. -
Looked like it was about to clear out here and then radar suddenly filled all the way back to Fentress County. Possibly the lee side low causing it.
It sure did

Have you hit double digits yet?
Got to be right at it

Whereabouts are you again?

We are both in Halls about 2 miles or so apart.

I love that you have the locations for Egwani and River Island/Island Pointe on your RadarScope!!!!

One of the tricks it may be up to, is Lee are notorious for being under modeled 6+ hours out on precip. If it hangs around as CAMs suggest tonight, could be interesting for everyone.
I was looking at the HRRR sim earlier and towards the end of the system you could see the precip in the southern Valley up against the foothills start drifting more north back into the valley like a little wave developed or something. I haven’t looked in a while though.

Can we expect that to move into the Tri Cities?
.
If you are not fighting temp issues, all of this moving up the valley is headed for upper ETn. It’s basically running parallel to the apps.

Biggest flakes I’ve seen so far.
Also… we are about to lose the sun angle while the best precipitation moves in. I’m not good at judging “rates” but I imagine what I’m getting has to be close to 1” an hour. Flakes are massive

Yeah the wind and flake size increased with this band, friggin awesome.
The radar is beautiful

That line is mine. I call dibs.

That stuff west of Nashville has exploded the last hour. There was a 50 mile dry slot south of Nashville but it filled in fast.

It’s a good snow when it starts piling up in and around your vehicle wheels.

Mesoscale Discussion 0069
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1150 AM CST Mon Jan 15 2024
Areas affected...parts of middle and eastern Tennessee
Concerning...Heavy snow
Valid 151750Z - 152045Z
SUMMARY...An area of heavier snow rates, occasionally approaching 1 inch per hour, may be maintained east-northeastward across portions of middle and eastern Tennessee through 2-4 PM CST, before gradually diminishing through early evening.
DISCUSSION...A mid-level speed maximum propagating across northern Mississippi is forecast to reach the Cumberland Plateau by early evening. This still appears associated with an area of enhanced mid/upper forcing for ascent, which might be maintained through the 20-22Z time frame while overspreading portions of middle through eastern Tennessee. Thereafter, frontogenetic forcing is forecast to generally weaken across the Tennessee Valley through southern Appalachians vicinity, yielding diminishing precipitation rates. Until then, it appears that the area of enhanced lift will include upward vertical motion maximized within the favorably cold mid-level layer (centered around or above 600 mb) for large dendritic ice crystal growth. It appears this may remain strong enough to support continuing potential for occasional heavy snow rates up to around 1 inch per hour, where lower/mid tropospheric profiles are maintained at or below freezing (roughly north of the 0 C isotherm at 859

I think us north of Knoxville is transitioning to higher ratio snow. The radar looks about the same but the flake size is smaller but the intensity has picked up. Hopefully this continues SE towards @Reb .

Feel like being north of 40 is big for this storm.
@Carvers Gap said multiple times the winners would be the ones who were just on the good side of the R/S line. He’s spot on.
