Historic Tennessee Valley Cold, Snow, and Ice Events
John1122 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
One for the ages, 13 inches of cement on the ground here. I'll never forget watching it rip down big, wet, silver dollar + sized flakes. Started around 3pm here and fell overnight. Probably close to 20 inches fell, but there was lots of compacting for 13 inches on the ground.- 139 replies

It's headed to +QBO territory by winter 26-27, that usually means less blocking and a stronger polar vortex.

Fall/Winter Banter - Football, Basketball, Snowball?

He said don't believe all the hype about a blizzard in the days leading up to it. He predicted 6 inches of snow max 24 hours or so out. -
I had no idea it was supposed to snow tonight, but we just had a snow shower and now I see the forecast says it will snow some in the morning.

Fall/Winter Banter - Football, Basketball, Snowball?

Matt Hinkin passed away, he was 62. I didn't realize he was only in his 20s when he made his infamous huge miss on the Blizzard of '93. -
March brings energy to the atmosphere that doesn't exist most of the time in December and January especially. The hardest snow I've ever seen falling was in a March squall. It snowed 1.5 inches in 15 minutes with strong winds and near zero visibility. It was sunny 10 minutes later.

Today will get me to 20 inches of snow on the season. It mostly came 1 to 3 inches at a time. Snow was falling a lot from November to now, Mid March.

Another heavy squall underway out there currently. The wind kicks up, vis drops below 1/4th mile and it just rips for 15 or so minutes.

Added about 1/2 inch of snow from the NW this afternoon. Looks like more upstream as dark approaches. Temp is down to 30.

This was about 45 minutes ago. My power went off so I came down to town. It's beginning to get white down in town now. Very heavy snow in that band Holston_River_Rambler posted above.

I'm getting into very heavy stuff now, running about an hour or hour and a half behind Shocker and Knoxtron, but now have a dusting. Flake size is down to quarters but more of them, temp has dropped to 33.
