winter storm warnings now up in west Tennessee

I thought the same, but I’m glad to see them put it out ahead of time to give people plenty of advanced notice.

Winter Storm Watches now up for Hardeman county in west Tn and the surrounding areas. Calling for 3-8 inches of snow as of right now.

Our system is currently working through the Pacific Northwest. Portland Oregon getting snow, sleet, and rain from this system. Almost the entire state of Oregon is under some form of winter weather watches and warnings. Idaho is more of the same with a large swath of blizzard warnings there as well.

Hopefully we can stay at home and see the snow for this storm! It will be interesting to see when the warnings and watches start to get put out.

Heck yeah! I will sing it loud and proud, lol. What a run!!

This morning the ABC 24 news Meteorologist in Memphis talked about the possibility of accumulating snow in west Tennessee along with bitterly cold temperatures for next week. He said he was going to wait until tomorrow morning to start talking about/predicting snow totals. Guess we will see what he says tomorrow

Can confirm. Very light snow showers mixed in with a light rain from Memphis and into Fayette and hardeman counties east of Memphis. Wind has been screaming all day long, tough day for folks who make their living outside.

Hard not to get excited looking at that!

Rain is picking up in west Tennessee along with the wind. I have seen multiple lightning strikes on my way home from work. Hearing Plenty of thunder rumbles as well now at home. Time will tell if this is a good omen!

Yeah, lots of energy flying around on modeling the next ten days. It Will be interesting to see if we can get some cold air to cooperate with us on one of these upcoming storm systems. Gotta love the recent trends on storm tracks though!

Yeah, it was just tough when you know we were oh so close to a really nice snow event. But that is life, just glad we got to see some wintry action!

Round 3 last night packed a punch, definitely added to our ice total significantly.

Roads are pretty bad in west Tn, especially the back roads. My road is essentially a block of ice. As my dad would say, “it’s slicker than owl crap out there”.. lol

Ice storm warnings now up for a large portion of central Arkansas as well as the Dallas area and surrounding counties in Texas. All of West Tennessee under the warning now, looks like they moved the warnings 2 counties eastward into middle Tennessee also

30 minutes in and Moderate sleet is falling at the house now, cars covered and concrete driveway pad is extremely slick already.

It really is! Check out some of the Memphis interstate cameras when you get a chance, roads are turning into an ice rink as we speak. I-40 Is a mess right now

Light freezing rain/sleet starting to fall in hardeman County now, it’s cold out there too man. Wind chills are brutal today

Yeah, rush hour traffic this afternoon will be terrible. Hopefully everyone can get home safe

Looks like 70% of the state of Texas is now under a winter storm warning, south-western Arkansas also in on that warning upgrade. Should be a fun day weather wise across the nation to say the least. I Picked up some icing with last nights system here in bolivar. Maybe .10 of an inch max so far, nice glaze of ice on all the trees and cars. round 2 tonight looks like it’s going to pack more of a punch though. Supposed to start here around 4pm

Dallas also reporting heavy sleet at the moment, roads will be a mess if that trend continues.

Looks similar to last weeks system that blasted north-western Arkansas, southern Missouri, Illinois and Ohio with 3-6 inches of snow. These systems Have been one after another this month. One of the wettest January’s I can remember
