...New UPDATE...
.UPDATE...
Issued at 755 PM CST Sun Jan 14 2024
It`s snowing!!! All of our observation sites are reporting snow
this hour with the heaviest falling along and south of I-40. We`ve
already received a report of 0.5" of snow in Bellevue. Looking at
the latest run of the HRRR tonight, boy did it come in hot. It
paints a narrow band of higher totals ranging from 6-8 inches from
Wayne County all the way through to our furthest NE counties on
the Plateau, including Nashville. This solution would mean this
event overachieves a little further north than originally
forecasted and it pumps out more snow in any heavier bands that
move through. This will be something to watch as the night
progresses. There were talks of bumping up QPF along our northern
border to match up with this latest run of the HRRR, but for now,
we`re going to hold off on that to see what the next round of
models show since this is only 1 run. Our sounding tonight shows a
textbook snow event; big, healthy layer of moisture right in the
snow growth region with all layers below 0 degrees Celsius. As for
temperatures, they have tanked. Most everyone is sitting right
around 20 degrees and dropping. We will be back with a full
forecast update in the next several hours. In the meantime, stay
safe, stay warm, and enjoy the snow!
