    The heavy sleet here laid down a layer of ice in the roads that quickly got topped by heavy snow. Multiple wrecks on I-75. Took my friend's wife almost 3 hours to get from north Knox to Jacksboro. Normally a 40 miunute trip. The heavy rain that prevented any pre-treating was bad news.

    HRRR and RAP likes a little band over Cumberland, Fentress and Morgan co. Shows 2-4 more inches there by tomorrow. These bands will be high ratio and should stack up overnight to the tune of an inch or two at least if anyone can get them to train over your back yard. It's currently 23 here and I'm sure will will fall into the 10s as these bands rotate through over night. HRRR even has my area getting another 1 to 1.5 inches. WVLT even had a secondary snow spike tomorrow evening around 4 in Knoxville. They have a it 20 percent snow during the day then 40 in the afternoon. He seems to use the HRRR himself. Or their house model is based on it.

    It may take until tomorrow, but the HRRR has a little Bulleye in NW Cumberland that picks up close to 4 inches from the streamers.

    Cousins at 2800ft, 6 inches. They had 1.5 inches down when I changed from sleet to snow.

    A few photos from around here before dark.

    Finally down to flurries here. About 3.75 inches. Banding snow West of the Plateau, possibly even on it but Fentress is a radar black hole.

    Not gonna go full RGEM but it beat the Euro/UKiE/NAM imby.

    3.5 inches down. Steady snow still falling. TDOT reporting traffic nightmares in Campbell on I-75 due to heavy snow.

    Don't know why the picture won't upload. About 45 minutes ago.

    2.5 inches down. Fine flakes but very low visibility here.
  11. John1122
    Flake size has dropped with crashing temps in the upper levels but visibility is still around 1/4th mile or less. That initial sleet and then huge flakes helped the laying process greatly. Plus the very low late December sun angle and decently cold temps and even the rain cooling the ground. That's why I questioned JKL saying it would take a while to start laying a few days ago.

    Birds in the snow.
  13. John1122
    I'm about to officially reach white Christmas status. Closing in on an inch already. Currently visibility is approximately 700 feet. I think I may bust high on the MRX call map if I can maintain this for even another hour. Not counting and potential banding or anything like that.

    I am sure areas to the East will do much better but it's hard to beat getting to see these huge flakes falling while red birds fill the apple tree by my feeder in the daylight. Daylight snow is just rare here any more.

    Ripping half and silver dollars now. Or fatties as some would say.
  16. John1122
    35 to 34 did it for Jacksboro.
  17. John1122
    32 and the ground is milky white. Large snow flakes with probably 5 percent sleet. Just enough to barely hear it.
  18. John1122
    Just turned the corner. Heavy snow now. Quarter to half dollar sized flakes.
  19. John1122
    Obs from Jacksboro to my South.
  20. John1122
    If it went north after 240 all of East Tennessee and East Kentucky probably gets 10 more inches.
  21. John1122
    It's only below freezing on the Plateau and NE of Morristown that run. Knoxville gets 20 inches of snow in 18 hours at 33. There wouldn't be a standing powerline in the entire valley from Morristown to Lawrenceburg.
  22. John1122
    Me too, sleet is a good base for snow to lay on if the ground didn't look like a lake. But it eats up precious snow QPF and use West siders can't afford that.
  23. John1122
    I'd forgotten how loud heavy sleet was. I'm currently 80 percent sleet, 20 percent snow.
  24. John1122
    I'm actually in a sleet burst right now too.
  25. John1122
    Holy mother....probably mixed or sleet south of 40 on the Euro, but lordy.
