Part 2 will be here tomorrow night. Probably lighter this round. I'd guess a heavy dusting to maybe 1.5 inches in the lower elevations with a lot more likely in the lower range of accumulation. Still I think a few people will get lucky and do okay with it.  It's going to be colder than last night and today. My low is forecast to be 26 with the snow falling tomorrow night. 

I'd be happy if we managed another inch from all that. NWS only shows 20% chance for us while TWC is at 40% so neither seem to excited about it.

Yes I was amazed at how accurate that map was- I measured before the melting started and I got right about 4 or a little less in spots, I'm in the blue spot also - our elevation is much higher than in town. You might have gotten more than you thought

You're probably right but I woke up at like 5am when it was snowing hard and then fell asleep until like 11:30 well after it had quit lol. So I'm sure some had melted by that time since it was 31 degrees or so.

I never was able to get more than an inch down. Once the sun came up it was just too much for any additional accumulations.

The sun never really came out here surprisingly but we still had melting in the "drifty" spots where there wasn't as much coverage. And it was only 31 degrees today. Maybe we'll all get more the next couple days.

Looks like ur the winner so far brother. What did u get , 4 to 5" ?

I think more like 3" it's just blown around everywhere. I didn't measure but the car seemed to have more on it than the grass probably. Every snow we've had here this season has been almost the same amount seems like. I wish it wasn't so windy here or it would've made for some really good pictures of the trees again.

They did model it pretty well though, the random dark blue blip is over me above Crossville.

Melted off the roads here and is 31 now. Looks like maybe more snow tomorrow night here but with it supposed to be around 36 or so most of this will probably melt?

I think it's pretty much done here between Monterey and Crossville but another good solid event overall

EDIT: Actually looks like a couple heavier bands will be coming through shortly so may pick up a little from those

I don't have access to a good radar picture, but it's still snowing at a good clip , medium and small flakes mixed. Approaching two inches, I hope you get this in your neck of the woods!

Same here. I went to bed about 3.5 hours ago and it hadn't started here yet so I'm surprised since when I went to bed it seemed it was all west of Nashville. Hopefully it keeps up and we all get some snow that'll last more than a day or so with the colder temps ahead. This is already the best winter in three or four years at least here.

Sorry for crappy pic quality

Feels like it could be a bust here...or was the first wave that came through not really supposed to amount to anything and it's mostly whats in West Tennessee thats expected to add up?

Looks like Lebanon is about to get it per radar. 

They did! Ran into heavy snow just east of there on the way home. Video quality sucks but the flakes were pretty huge.

I'm in Lebanon eating and snow rain mix was coming down pretty good a few minutes ago. Seems quiet now 

It's technically not the same system I guess, but we just had heavy snow and big flakes come rolling through here laying down a good dusting!

Thanks for sharing! The image there is very accurate. I remember (living in the NW part of Cumberland County where it shows 10-10.5" on the map) getting sent home from work early due to the snow. My car already had about four inches of snow on it.

I drove 8 miles Southeast into town to grab some food and chill at home. When I got to town there was no snow and it was still raining there and the drive thru woman asked where the heck I lived that there was that much snow already and I told her just a few miles up the road. Once it had quit snowing they were about six inches behind where we were just up the road due to the snow starting way sooner here with us being about 200ft higher elevation. It was one of the sharpest snow cutoffs I can remember here.

Yep. Then the big East Coast Storm hit the 23rd. That one varied big time in the area. Mixing, Downsloping issues in parts of area. Wound up with just 4" from It. Well below forecasted amounts. 

Yep and most midstate areas received much more than forecast. Nashville eastward was common 8-12 inch amounts and then it trickled off some once you got east of the Plateau I believe

This was in the January 2016, 19th or 20th. 

We got around 9-10 inches here in January 2016 but it was on January 22nd in Crossville. I do remember a couple days before that we only got about two or three inches from the one you're talking about and areas east of here got a lot more I think. It must've been warm on the 21st because I remember almost all of it had melted by the time the big storm hit on the 22nd.

The 22nd we were supposed to get 2-4 inches but it changed over from rain several hours earlier so we got a lot more than expected. It's the most snow I've had since moving to Crossville in 2012.

It seems to be easing up here now, but beautiful snow. It reminds me of a couple good winters in 2010 and 2011 when the last snow hadn't completely melted before more fell on top of it.

Fairly heavy snow in Fairfield Glade near Crossville:

I do too. Last system was to have rain involved and was an all snow event here.

I can see this melting fast if the sun decides to peek through later but hopefully it will surprise us all and snow all day.

TWC also suggests a changeover to rain here but I doubt it. It said the storm the other day would start out as rain for a few hours as well but it was all snow here. Hopefully everyone on the forum can get a surprise hit today.

Dang.  Looks like I need to go south or east if I’m gonna see snow this winter.  Must not be livin’ right.  LOL!!

Bad when you gotta make a trip to Louisiana for the good stuff

Went to the campground by the house to take a couple pics since it was so pretty in the snow the other day. Still a little snow was leftover from that event but it's always a nice scene there with the woods and cabins.

Flakes are normal size here in Crossville. Falling straight down with light wind

I take a phone pic, then send it to my computer, then upload it to IMGUR. Once you upload it to IMGUR, right click on it and choose "copy image address". You can then just copy that address into the text fields here and the pic will pop up. 

Yeah I know how to do all that, it just felt quicker to me to screenshot the picture I just took and upload that. Because screenshotting the picture seems to put it at around 1mb but the quality still looks good

Measured 3 inches here last night, seems like it has packed down somewhat this morning. 

Same here. It had melted off our walkway by this morning despite the temperature showing 29-30 all night.

How do you guys upload pics here? It’s telling me max size is 1.95MB.  That seems small.

I take a picture and then a take a screenshot of the picture with my phone lol
