March 11th-13th Winter Weather Event. Winter's last gasp?

Jackson, KY radar looks great upstream for you! -
March 11th-13th Winter Weather Event. Winter's last gasp?

I measured 3" on the snowboard but got some 4-5" measurements in the yard. This is one where the patio table and back deck measurements will probably be especially high because of all the snow blowing off of the rooftops. OHX only measured 2.8" but lots of 4-5" reports around Nashville. -

Anafrontal snow. I think we had about the same thing on January 3rd. -

January 28th-29th Clippers/NW Flow Obs/Last Minute Forecasts.
Coach B replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Only had a dusting at the house, but it looked like half an inch just a couple miles away. HRRR and NAM 3K nailed the idea of minor accums from the streamers in middle TN. -
The January 84 dates coincided with a 3.5" snow in Nashville that laid on the ground for over a week due to a major cold shot that included four days in a row with below 0 lows! The double weighted February 97 dates were nothing to write home about though.

I did some rudimentary monthly snowfall numbers for Nashville several years ago. While January was the snowiest month, it was only a slight edge. So slight in fact, that if you divided the monthly average by the number of calendar days, that February actually averaged slightly more snow per day. It just likes to snow in February even though the average temp is going up and days are getting longer. I suspect it has to do with the longer wavelengths and slightly less chance of a cold and dry pattern. As far as the LR pattern, I'll let those of you who know more break it down. However, to me it looks like the trough wants to set up a touch farther west, which should give us more chances than we've had this week. Question is, will it set up too far west and give us rainy cutters that benefit Oklahoma and Missouri, or potentially give us a shot at some over running wintry precip followed by serious cold.

We've spiked well above forecast into the low 60s. Actually feels nice outside.

Can't complain at this point in the winter for most of middle TN based on this map. Looks like Oklahoma and the TX Panhandle along with much of Illinois and Indiana are the biggest losers.

It was almost ridiculously low for my area. It was so consistently low I questioned what in the world it was blending? Not any of the models I was checking.
-
Ended up with a little over 4". Elevation definitely helped.
-
I measured a full inch already here in Marshall county. It was absolutely dumping quarter sized flakes at 5:30. Unfortunately it has switched back to rain. Kind of surprised that it flipped back after pouring heavy snow.
-
HRRR has been giving me near foot totals here in Marshall county, yet the NBM is showing less than an inch. I have no idea what it's blending, but it's not any of the models I'm watching. The fv3 and see of the SREF family is really low, maybe that's it.

Excellent shift to the south for southern middle and much of east TN.
-
Amen to this. Although for all of us in the less than perfect locations off of the Upper Cumberland I'll take a 2" all snow event over the risky mix or 4"+ gamble.
-
My temp has dropped into the upper 50s with steady rain in S mid TN. Sure doesn't have the severe feel??
