    GFSv16 was a bit more south and colder.

    The 0z runs are enough to be interesting. Kentucky gets slammed by the GGEM.

    0z GFS was a little further west with the snow shield in about 5-6 days. Webb keeps comparing it to the March 1927 event. That one saw several inches as far back as Nashville with 8-12+ inches across the eastern valley. A foot in Chattanooga for instance.

    I'd love to tap some legitimate cold with the -NAO around. Hopefully we can get a 2-3 week period with both. Even if it was February 10-March 7th that is great climo for snow here if we can get the Pacific on board. In 2015 we managed to basically get the entire valley involved during the last 12 days of February and first few days of March. I believe the March event was a West Tennessee blizzard.

    Now very heavy sleet mixed with snow. I expect to hit rain before too long. Temp is up to 33.
  6. John1122
    Not sure how long it will last. But it's snowing.
  7. John1122
    Currently at 31 with blues popping up on the radar to the west of me. Hopefully I can pull off a little bit of front end snow.

    I seem to recall seeing models trying to cut storms straight towards big highs in the past like the Euro does around 192-198. I don't think it ever has actually worked that way when it came verification time. With a -NAO and a HP north of it I just don't see the storm running up through from the Gulf to Eastern Kentucky.

    The Plateau has been a harsh mistress for them for at least 135 years it seems!

    16 of the top 28 snow events in Nashville history occurred later than today's day, into February and March. Several happened in November/December as well. Here are some blockbusters. This one here had those 15 inches in Nashville fall in 13 hours! The Great Blizzard of 1951 was also the end of January into the 1st of February. February for the mid state has the all time single day snow fall record for Jamestown, Carthage, Byrdstown, Franklin, Monterrey, Gainsboro, Nashville, Orlinda, Smithville and Sparta among others. February also has the all time record low for a multitude of cities in the midstate with temps rivaling January of 1985. While none of those things may happen in February this year, any point in February is too early to give up hope on winter anywhere in the state.

    Thats actually probably a recent thing then. Nashville's snowfall records for individual storms and snowiest months are virtually all set after January but they were also set before the 1980s for the most part. I did find that Nashville and Knoxville saw the largest drop in snowfall average in the entire country for the 1981-2010 time frame. Nashville dropped 60 percent and Knoxville 52 percent. Not sure if that's more urbanization or what. I do know that for Knoxville it's due in part to missing data. Several large snow events in Knoxville in the 90s are missing from data and monthly snowfall is recorded at way less than actually fell.

    Actually February is usually the snowiest month in Tennessee. So all hope isn't lost yet at least.
  13. John1122
    Notice any difference in the GFS from yesterday at 06z vs today for the 29th? Yesterday
  14. John1122
    Things look seasonal over the next few days with some frozen precip possible but nothing much of significance. We will then be warm for a few days with a big attempted cutter per the Euro. At D10 the Pacific is getting blocky. The NAO is strong and cold is bulldozing eastward. It's reached Memphis by 240.
  15. John1122
    The EPS has decided ultra warmth maybe isn't it's thing. Back to western ridge and Eastern trough. Model madness abounds. Hope the warmth was another headfake like the Christmas warmth was.
  16. John1122
    Possibly moving out of winter for a while but a good coaching search may pull me through.
  17. John1122
    Good looking band on radar in my area but so far they are only producing light snow showers. Temp is down to 34.
  18. John1122
    I never get shut out, but have had 2 of the worst years in about 90 years of records here in the last 3 winters too. I'm excited because I have a shot at getting to my average this year. I really hope you guys can get a nice event. I always look back at the frequency of heavy snow events over the entire forum and they aren't uncommon in Middle Tennessee or East Tennessee, they are less common in West but still used to happen. It's been a long while since there was a widespread 12+ inch event in the eastern areas and even though Northern Middle had one in 2016, the rest of the midstate hasn't seen one in a long time either. My last 12+ single event was 2010. My last 15+ was 1998. Both those types of events used to happen far more frequently. I'm not sure why they've stopped. We still get plenty of juice and we've still been downright frigid in the 2010-2020 timeframe. You'd think we'd have lucked into one.

    Light snow shower underway right now. 37 degrees, temp fell from 41 to 37 in just a few minutes.
  20. John1122
    I know it's been worse for our mid-state and western posters with some painful misses. But still likely has been better for them than the past few winters where a flurry was hard to come by in January.
  21. John1122
    If you went across the bridge and up Turley (everyone calls it Red Ash, but it's not.) My great great grandfather lived on the very top of the mountain there where it cuts back towards either Scott County or on back into Red Ash/Caryville. I live on the East side of 75.
  22. John1122
    I wouldn't live anywhere else unless it was just higher up the mountain, above 2500ft is one of those lines where it's different in snow events. The WMA literally borders me on all sides. Good for hiking, recreation etc.
  23. John1122
    That's all Campbell Co, Scott border is about 7 miles west. That exit has just boomed for the city of Caryville. Those hotels stay booked year round for ATV tourism. I can be at exit 141 in about 10 minutes on an ATV.
  24. John1122
    I've now had at least some snow on the ground all but about 7-8 days since Christmas eve. I saw that the Smokies have now had snow on the ground continuously since November 30th.
  25. John1122
    Part 2 will be here tomorrow night. Probably lighter this round. I'd guess a heavy dusting to maybe 1.5 inches in the lower elevations with a lot more likely in the lower range of accumulation. Still I think a few people will get lucky and do okay with it. It's going to be colder than last night and today. My low is forecast to be 26 with the snow falling tomorrow night.
