    Light snow and 16 here. It was actually 17 at 8:30 and the temp went down a degree since.
  2. John1122
    Potent cold front if nothing else. Temp is hanging out in the 20s.
  3. John1122
    Very heavy rain and more thunder than during the severe event Saturday when I didn't hear thunder here at all.

    That area is strangely susceptible to tornadoes. They had one on Halloween night. There's been one tornado in my county since 1935 and it was on the ground here for about 1 mile before crossing into Claiborne Co, but Claiborne gets a ton of tornadoes by comparison.

    Yep. The tornado history site counted them as Tennessee F5. I believe 3 of the F4 also started outside of Tennessee on there so not sure if they were F4 in the state or not. The other 29 F4 formed in Tennessee.

    I believe the tornado history site mistakenly counted this one and one from the April 1974 outbreak that crossed from Northern Alabama into Tennessee.

    There have been 92 F3, 32 F4 and 3 F5 in Tennessee.

    68 here today, about as warm as it ever gets in January. Rain is getting close, probably won't make 70.
  9. John1122
    My snow depth on the 23rd is 24 inches on member 50, dang compacting.
  10. John1122
    I could live with that! I'm going to start getting bread and milk now.
  11. John1122
    I'm at 33 currently.
  12. John1122
    Heavy snow here now. Quarter sized wet flakes. Vis 1/2 mile or less. Classic convection based snow shower.
  13. John1122
    Had snow/graupel shower. Temp is 36 degrees and falling pretty fast. Was 52 a few hours ago.
  14. John1122
    2.38 inches and pouring down out there right now with some heavy upstream returns coming. Some flooding issues cropping up in the area and creeks are very high.
  15. John1122
    00z GFS.
  16. John1122
    Now at 1.28 after moderate/heavy rain for the past few hours.
  17. John1122
    .55 has fallen here so far. I can't imagine we manage a 3rd straight year of much much AN precip.
  18. John1122
    I will end the year with 81.37 inches of rain, breaking the record set last year, with around 90 years of observations within a 4 mile area here.

    If the 1954 connection continues into 1955 we may be in luck. January started warm that year. Another 70 in Knoxville in the first week of the month. The second half turned cold and there was a big snow event in the 3rd week of the month. February was up and down with another decent event during the month.
  20. John1122
    Thundered here a bit ago. GFS has snow showers in about 5 days.
  21. John1122
    That's impressive. I only made it to 66 today. Which is still extremely warm, but 76 is crazy.
  22. John1122
    Yes, that's what happened here a week later. Power line snapping cement with 2 inch per hour rates for 8+ hours. They literally record 3 to 5 inches for 4 straight days at Tri on the official record. That's a big part of why the extremely low snowfall averages are off in our region. Extremely poor quality control. You can't have a remotely accurate 30 year average when you're missing the biggest events of the timeframe. After looking it adds up to 17.6 falling at Tri airport.
  23. John1122
    It's not right and the maps that accompany them are honestly laughable. As I mentioned, Tri airport goes from 0 snow depth to 13 inches depth on February 2nd-3rd 1996 but has M for snowfall so they don't include it. February 1998, no clue how they missed it. I don't remember it happening how its recorded at Tri, but amounts between 3.4-5.7 inches are recorded over a 4 day span, with something like 18.2 inches falling. But I guess they aren't counting it as one event? No idea honestly. I thought it was a dynamic cooling event that all fell in a shorter time. The Plateau had one a week later with 10-25 inches.
  24. John1122
    Temperatures are near normal now through 2/3rds of the month, mainly on the strength of two days that were +15-20 in the area. Without those I'm probably -1.5-2.
  25. John1122
    It's been colder than I expected the last several days, maybe I hadn't been paying attention with all the talk of coming warmth and was expecting it to be warm. Had lows in the upper 10s and highs in the upper 30s to mid 40s several days in a row now.
