Whatever BAM weather says, the opposite is usually good to go.

I've said for years that we used to get 15-20 inch snows here every decade or so, sometimes a couple of times a decade, and that eventually we'd get another one. I can't imagine this actually comes to pass but dang, it would be one of those old school monsters.

That Euro run may be the best of the whole winter and for this storm. Everything went about as well as possible today on modeling. The worst runs from each model got better. If this plays out remotely like it's modeled, it will join the ranks of all time storms here. Be it the heavy ice solutions or the heavy snow solutions.

Not snow fall, but snow depth is 8-12 almost forum wide, with a few 12+ dollops, and some areas "only" in 6-8 depth.

Hoth on the Empire Strikes Back.

I think maybe a thread is in order after that suite. There's going to be a storm for all of us, and at minimum some parts of the forum area are going to get frozen.

Looks like far SE TN and N Alabama is still hanging onto ice by just after midnight Saturday but everyone else in the forum is snow.

The Canadian had 6 inches of sleet from the Plateau to Memphis.

It was a ton of ice along the 40 corridor, I remember Crossville was devastated. I got several inches of sleet and snow. (It may have been a different year but I think it was 2010)

That Canadian run was a super charged version of Jan 29th/30th, I believe 2010.

With the near zero cold coming, it would potentially be a horrible situation. I feel you on the outages. We are frequent fliers on that here. As a mountain community, we aren't exactly high priority normally either.

The Euro is less QPF than other models, but would still have around .7 qpf as ice down that way, capped with some snow.

We go deep into the ice box on the Euro with that snow cover. Some -10ish stuff showing up in Western areas.

Eventually the whole forum area turns to snow except that sliver in SE TN and N Alabama.

The Euro is snow for most of the state, a bad ice storm along and south of 40 in East Tennessee that should change to snow.
