I've managed a pretty rainy week. Had heavy rain Tuesday evening and it rained a good portion of the day today.

I love to fish in those creeks and rivers in the Obed. Great for smallmouth.

Spring/Summer 2018 Mid to Long Term Discussion.

It was plenty cold this winter, but dry. We are in a pattern for quite a while of 2 warm, 3 cold. This past winter was year 1 of cold. We will see if the pattern keeps its trend of the last 25 years or so. Plus we are getting some extra volcanic activity and should be in a minimum solar period. That said, I got far more snow in the first year of the warm a couple years ago than I did in the frigid January 2018.- 195 replies

Just been pounded with rain today and this evening. Approaching 4 inches with a huge area of slow moving storms just beginning to overspread the area again. Around 6pm we had some of the heaviest wind driven rain I've ever seen. Major street flash flooding with them.

I have a graduation to attend Saturday, so rain is almost a guarantee to make the already crowded 2 lane drive even worse.- 195 replies

Had a pretty nice pop-up thunderstorm yesterday afternoon and there's a storm in progress now. Nice to get a rain boost after a few hot/dry days.

Had plans to shoot some photos using evening sun today, so of course the area is just socked in thick with clouds even though high pressure is in control and skies are clear in every direction from the Northern half of the Plateau/SEKY. Not sure why the Cumberlands generate so many clouds.

Found this interesting. Not much of a severe season in Tennessee. Especially for BNA/MRX.- 195 replies

Managed 32 this morning with a heavy frost. Hopefully this is the last freeze/frost of the year. I want to plant tomatoes soon.

Just plain cold out today. Temp in the upper 30s with gusty winds, feeling like 28 out there.

Been at 28 degrees for 5 hours. Probably not going to do any favors to the apple trees that had bloomed.

The snow continues at a steady pace here. The lower elevations have a dusting at around 12-1300 feet. 1750 which is my area, is up to around 2 inches and I'd guess 3.5 to 4 above 2500 where temps are in the 20s right now. The flow is almost due west and it's causing Cross Mountain enhancement as the air gets forced up by the 3600 foot peak. It's a microclimate here where areas can get both NW flow and W flow snow. There are even N flow areas here as Cross Mountain runs north to south and Pine, Black and Walnut mountain run SW to NE and moisture gets wrung out from several directions.
