  1. Weather apps are showing 33° and snow on Signal Mtn. Son-in-law said cold rain and 33°. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  2. We have now switched to mostly rain and a nice 35°[emoji1]. Good luck folks. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  3. Temp shot up to 39°. Sleet now confirmed in Ooltewah and temp has lowered to 35°. Probably short lived but maybe north and east of us can score. Edit to add: A few token flakes have mixed in Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  4. The blue dot is my house. This has to be a virga storm because we haven't had anything fall from the sky in Ooltewah. Added channel 9 radar. Showing same thing as TWC radar. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  5. I'm in Ooltewah. I would be shocked if we receive anything. I hope you're correct that we might get a little something. We moved to Ooltewah in June 2016. Other than a dusting here and there, the only snow we've seen was from the February 2020 sunrise snow where we received between 3-4". It was melted and gone by noon. I would love to see a small shift southward and get a good burst of moderate snow. I've seen it happen before in this area, good and bad. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  6. This could be one of those "sneaky" systems for Chattanooga. We laugh because we are prone to getting shut out of snow but it's sort of like poker. You always remember the bad beats but never talk about the 1 or 2 outer you hit to win a big hand. This is not a wishcast at all, but I've seen several times the moisture was more than predicted and Chattanooga was just on the line of rain/snow. If we happen to get this thing a hair south and hit the transition zone and be on the snow side with rain just to the south of us, I've seen some really heavy snow here when this happens. I'm not writing this one off yet. I'm actually intrigued with a possible surprise here but as we all know in our area, everything has to be perfect. Maybe this will be one of those times. We will know come Thursday![emoji3587] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  7. Negative Ghost Rider. Area mountains and everywhere north, south east and west got snow. All we had at our house was big heavy flakes around 3:30 a.m. and that didn't last long. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  8. This is Chattanooga in a nutshell. Nothing in the valley but check out the areas just around us. Also, I received a notification on my phone that Nob North golf course (Cohutta, Ga. Between Ringgold and Dalton) 15 miles south of as a crow flies that the course is closed today due to the snow not melting off. I think they picked up 2-3". This is the Chatty area snow life. [emoji1] The picture with no snow was what we received at our home in Ooltewah. Nice, dry ground looking out our front door. [emoji3061] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  9. It really does amaze me how this can continuously happen. I honestly can't remember a statewide snow where Chattanooga got involved with at least just 1 measley inch of snow. It's just mind boggling. There were some huge flakes that dropped for a short period of time but that was it. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  10. Just had a nice clasp of thunder. Currently 35° with sleet in Ooltewah. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  11. 12:18 a.m. in Ooltewah currently sitting at 41° with light rain. Son in law lives on Signal Mtn. They have a mixed bag at 35°. They should do well up there. We are always a crapshoot here but I guess I'll ride it out and see what transpires. We are off until the 10th so I'll have time to makeup my lost sleep. Stovepipe, save me a drink!

  12. Same here. [emoji1] Maybe we can get lucky and at least see a good snow shower in Ooltewah. I'm not holding my breath but it would be a nice surprise. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  13. Major damage in Bowling Green with several deaths being reported. [emoji853] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  14. We were oh so close once again in the Chatty area. Went to bed it was 35* and sleet. Woke to 33* and rain in Ooltewah. Go figure. [emoji849] The rain has washed away what looks to be a decent ground cover of sleet. Only remaining ice was in flower beds and on car windows. Just arrived to work and it's a nice, steady rain at 34*. [emoji31] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  15. Rain has changed to sleet in Ooltewah at our house. We are currently sleet and 36*. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  16. That surprises me that snow totals would be cut in Chattanooga. [emoji851] Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  17. None of the maps are loading for me with limited Verizon service at work. Is the frozen depicted showing up from Knoxville north and east or does any of it make it to the southern valley around Chatty? Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk
  18. Looking at all the maps that have been posted, the Chattanooga area is oh so close, as usual, for a chance at frozen early next week. It's usually too warm here but a little drop of that lurking cold air can be the difference. This far out it's a toss up. With that said, I found the verbage interesting on the Weather Channel app. I know it's the Weather Channel and their forecast changes with every model run but I found it interesting.

  19. 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
  20. 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
  21. 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
  22. 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
  23. 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
  24. 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.

  25. 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
