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

Looks like all those mesoscale models are picking up a lot of sleet on each run, been pretty consistent. Time will tell but but there’s a pretty good consensus across the board for sleet. Personally I’ll take sleet all day long over freezing rain.

It’s Been a frigid day in Collierville today, definitely colder than expected. It’s Gonna be an interesting day tomorrow in the mid south for sure. Winds today have been brutal, it cuts right threw you.

Rain/sleet line is at the Shelby County/ Fayette County border now. Temps at 32 in east Memphis. Wind is ripping according to some family members driving down hwy 64

Sitting at 46 in Hardeman County at the moment with a light breeze and overcast skies. snow/rain is supposed to get here around 6.

Will we have a white Christmas in Memphis this year? What's the chance of getting snow for Christmas in Memphis? Well, what does history say about Memphis' chances for snow? Take a look - here's the weather that's happened on Christmas Day in Memphis for the past 147 years.... Records that go back to 1889 show that Memphis had a measurable amount of snow on Christmas only once in 133 years. That was in 1913 when 3.5 inches of snow fell on Christmas Day (1.4 inches was on the ground at 6:00 a.m. that day). Trace amounts (only a few flakes - not enough to measure), fell on 11 occasions - 1914, 1918, 1926, 1939, 1948, 1975, 1980, 1992, 2009, 2010, and 2012. There has been a few times when there was snow on the ground Christmas morning (from previous storms). The greatest was 1963 when 10 inches covered the city Christmas morning; 1962 and 2004 had 2 inches on the ground, 1998 had 1 inch on the ground, and a trace of snow on Christmas morning in 1897,1966, 1980, and 1990. The warmest temperature for Christmas Day was 77 degrees in 2021; 1983 had the coldest Christmas at zero (0) degrees. While a Memphis snow is rare on Christmas Day, rain has fallen several times. Christmas was rainy 50 times in the last 147 years; sleet (or freezing rain) happened three times. The wettest Christmas Day came in 1987 when 4.24 inches of rain soaked Memphis. Will history be a guide again this year?

Well that was quite a run on the 18z gfs. Massive storm on that go around. The whole forum gets involved in on the snow.

Trying to find now, there’s a lot of charts to go through.
