There's still a decent shot some of us see some wintry weather with wave 2, and to me this is all bonus stuff. The truly wintry pattern resulting from the SSW should start being felt mid-month and beyond. MRX has this delightful sentence to end their AFD this morning.

It's getting close to winding down here for now, though the radar has filled in a bit to the sw of me, that will probably be my last hurrah on this round. Still snowing enough to have visibility at around 1/2 mile and give it the foggy look outside but flake size is tiny now even with the radar not showing much happening here. Currently at 3.25 inches. I'll probably peak here with compacting happening and snow about to slack off for a while. Looks like another wave will rotate through around 9-11amish if the HRRR is to be believed. I don't expect it will amount to much, as temps will probably be in the mid 30s by then.

I resize them and use freeimage.host. You can upload them and find the direct link to the photo in the sharing via html option. It will be the part that ends in .jpg in the middle of the code. I just copy and paste that and drop that here and it auto hotlinks it.

Just hit 3 inches. If this wasn't paste I'd probably have 5.

MRX had you guys changing over around 3 or 4. You still have a lot of moisture upstream too.

Is that strip of snow hitting you there in West Knox?

Another round of heavy stuff. 2 inches of paste.

Currently in the everyone but the Canadian loses the next system timeframe. It's crazy how much better the GGEM has been than the GFS/Euro/UKIE this winter for snow systems.

I started out with small flakes and sleet/graupel. They got bigger and bigger pretty quickly. Hopefully that happens there. Once the snow gets going it drops the temp nicely. I'd say you'll quickly get to the lower 30s if you can get some decent snowfall rates.

Back to huge flakes. In the 2 inch per hour type stuff. I guess future radar was right. Hopefully it lasts for a good hour or two.

Flake size has gotten smaller as the temp is now 31. Still moderate snow. 1.5 inches so far.

The snow line has been working slowly south on radar. Temp has fallen 4 degrees down in Lafollette.

Future radar is probably full of itself but it shows some ++SN over my area from about 12:30-2.

That burst of heavy snow did work in the temps in town. This is around 1300ft.

I hope so! Gonna use Netflix the rest of the evening. Gotta finish Cobra Kai.

Back to fatties level. 32.6 degrees.

Getting big flakes again now. Had been small flakes, sleet and some rain when it lightened up.

Had to climb up and sweep out the satellite. The paste was blocking signal. 1 inch down. Light mix currently.

This ob just popped up lower down in elevation from here. Hopefully it's moving my way.

Reports of 4 inches in Middle Tennessee. The GFS has already flunked this one. Looks like the Canadians may win another battle.

Nickels falling now. This band will move out soon. Hopefully it fills back in tonight. Third snow event of the season and it's the 1st week of January. What a giant improvement over the last few years.

Temp fell to 33 once it started ripping. It's let up a little now.

It may stop soon. But right now we are at 2+ inch per hour rates. It's snowing harder than it did at any point in Christmas eve.

Rapid acceleration to fatties. Ground turning white. This is why I knew MRX was off when talking about ground temps hindering sticking. It was 22 this morning, 36 for the high. It's early January. Ground temps aren't an issue. Especially with goose feathers.
