Chatty hit a smooth 72* today. There was 40* difference in Chatty and Memphis when I got off work. That's crazy when you think about it. Totally different climate on the Delta compared to the valley here, especially when that ridge is so stubborn. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

What is the tan colored graphic? I ask because Dalton, GA is in the tan area and they are just 30 miles to our south. Edit to add: the tan reaches the Tennessee border just 4 miles to my south as a bird travels. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

All we managed in Ooltewah was a dusting. The ground was white but not completely covered. These pics are from Signal Mtn, not Ooltewah. The only snow now is spotty in yards and a few rooftops and cars. Almost 1 year to the day of last years February 8th surprise 3-4" we managed to get. That was a heavy, wet snow and by 1pm it was completely gone. Hopefully this little dusting is a precursor for bigger things down the road. Congrats to everyone outside the Chattanooga area who got snow. My son-in-law sent me these pictures from his Signal Mtn home a few minutes ago. Looks like they managed a little over 1". I edited to add the 2 pitiful pictures I just took at our house to show how snow starved we are. [emoji23][emoji106]. This is all that remains here. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

John, if you can reel in 2-4 inches of snow for the Chatty area when you come bebopping into town that would be great. You go to Hixson if I remember from posts from the previous years. We're on the other side of the lake in Ooltewah. Shoot us at least a good ground cover over this way. Oh, and bring your own milk and bread. Channel 9 just showed high end snow amounts of 1.1" from Saturday night through Sunday night. Our stores will be empty. [emoji28] Edit: Snow was on the NAM. All other maps show rain [emoji299] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

If the temps are going to be as cold as advertised late next week AND there is moisture my gut tells me Chattanooga will be looking south to see the white stuff. I've seen way too many good snows get suppressed just to our south when we finally get cold air in our area and moisture from the gulf. Plenty of time to feel this one in. Let's hope for temps in the upper 20's to low 30's if we all get the moisture. After that bring in the motherload of cold so it can have staying power. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Verizon service is bad inside VW so I can't share any pics. We have nothing here but to our south one co-worker from Dalton has a solid dusting and another in Lafayette, Ga looks to be between 1-2". They got a nice thumping around 7am. All I had was a good snow shower at 5am leaving the house in Ooltewah. 5 miles up the road at VW it was nothing but a few flurries. Nothing stuck at my house. Good luck to those outside of the Chattanooga area. I hope you all over perform. I think our quick snow shower at 5am will be considered an over- performer for us.

Houston, I have to tell you. You are the man!! All these maps you post with animation are highly appreciated!! Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Bearman, I am in Ooltewah. Temp is 36* and the rain has intensified and flakes mixing in as well. It's the heaviest rain we have had from this system. It would be cool to get a changeover to all snow for a little bit but I'm not holding out hope. If only we were 3 or 4 degrees colder. Edit to add: 100% rain again. No more flakes at the moment.

Nothing but a cold rain in Ooltewah. 37* on my thermometer and 37.4* on my neighbor's. Congrats to everyone getting the flakes! My son-in-law lives on Walden (Signal Mtn) and said rain had changed over to a mix with the majority of it snow. Said it looks to be all snow in the next few minutes. 33.6* at his house.

Here in the Chattanooga area temps have been holding steady in the upper 30's. We're in Ooltewah and have been at 38* and holding steady for 3 hours. Forecast high today is 47*. I guess that can still happen if the warm nose comes in like it normally does in our area. Hopefully the temps can hold in the upper 30's and drop when the precip starts. I'm not expecting anything here but I've seen before in these setups with marginal temps if we can get just enough cold air and heavy precip it can pull a surprise and actually dump some nice heavy, wet snow. Something to keep our eye on around here. I'll be sick if we end up with rain and a little mix and 15 miles up I75 in Cleveland they pick up 3 or 4 inches. Either way, good luck to everyone that's wanting snow. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

I concur.[emoji851][emoji851][emoji74][emoji74][emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

We had good rain and as soon the temp dropped to 37* it turned to snow. Currently down to 34* but our good snow shower is tapering off as I type this. I'm in Ooltewah, a suburb of Chattanooga about 15-20 minutes from Cleveland. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Decent snow shower the past 20 minutes in Ooltewah. Not expecting it to last much longer based on radar returns. Temp has dropped really quick. Temp is down to.34*. Here's a screen grab of a video I took about 15 minutes ago from my driveway. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Unless Chattanooga can get super lucky with lingering moisture, or as Holston alluded to earlier with a secondary low popping around Mississippi or Alabama, this is what Johnny thinks of snow in Chattanooga this Thursday. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

I know my wife and I were VERY lucky. Our home is in Ooltewah and if the tornado had been 1 mile or so left we would have been hit hard. The circled path shown is from News Channel 9. I'm no editing specialist but our house is roughly where I put the white dot. We were on the fringe of getting it bad. Other people were not so lucky. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Check what I posted on the other Forum regarding your food. We can make room in our garage freezer if you still have frozen food that can be salvaged. We live in Ooltewah a little over 1 mile from the exit. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

John, this neighborhood is roughly 1 or 2 miles from the exit. Probably 1 mile as the crow flies. It's pretty bad. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10221024215013644&id=1190480053 Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Only video I've seen so far. Someone in Chattanooga reporting via phone from Shallowford Rd and Gunbarrel Rd near Hamilton Place Mall close to I 75. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10222029330591765&id=1516270977 Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Our power is back on for the 3rd time. I just saw this in channel 9 news a few minutes ago. Sad. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

We are in Ooltewah. Woke my wife up and we got in the closet under the stairs. No reports of damages yet in our area. Rumors there was a touchdown but I'll wait until I see ground reports. Our house is 4 years old and built solid. The wind was howling. Hopefully we have no loss if life in our area. I'm hoping no damage at our house. We have underground utilities and lost power for 20 minutes. Lost it a 2nd time for 10 minutes. Everyone stay safe. I cracked the closet door 1 time and you could literally feel pressure. Im guessing that was just from the main winds from the storm being so strong. Just hope we have no damage Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

This is about 20 miles south of us. We are getting pelted with rain and lightning Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Light rain has started here in Ooltewah. Temp dropped from 45* down to 40* in a matter of minutes. We still have a long way to go. I'm just not seeing us dropping too much more to get the conversion to all snow for any extended time. If it does snow I hope folks post pictures! I won't be able to see the light of day at work being at VW. [emoji2957] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

Not looking too good in the Chattanooga area. With that said, Gatlinburg is now under a Winter storm warning until late tonight with heavy snow expected. Edit to add: The first picture is current Chattanooga observation. [emoji849] Sent from my XT1710-02 using Tapatalk
