Saw yesterday MRX put a graphic out that said this was Knoxville's earliest 1" snowfall and it listed November 1st 2014 at Tri-Cities. I knew that I had 3 inches on October 31st 1993, and I remember at least north Knoxville having an inch or more. I looked it up and it shows a trace at Tyson, but it shows 1.3 inches at Tri-Cities. not sure how MRX missed 1993.

13 this morning. Coldest in any record I have but I noticed that Knoxville set their record in 1911 so it could have been colder here at some point.

11/12/19 Tennessee Valley Early Winter Event
John1122 replied to BlunderStorm's topic in Tennessee Valley
No November day will top November 25th, 1950. High 8, low -7 here. 8 inches of snow on the ground. It was -8 in Allardt that morning. Which may be the all time record low for November in Tennessee since a lot of stations weren't up back then. It was also -7 in Jamestown that morning and -6 in Monteagle. -

This is the kind of day I enjoy in winter. It snowed all day long, no melting, temps stayed in the lower 20s. Very unusual to see this wintry an air mass this early. -

Still snowing here as well. Quarter sized flakes out there. Upslope has added about 1/2 today. -

1.25 inches. About 1/2 what the more optimistic models were spitting out here but pretty close to what the HRRR was showing towards the event approaching, which was around 1 inch. It closed schools here, so the kids are happy with it too. -

Not a huge event, but November accumulations outside the last 10 days of the month aren't very common. This one gave us a preview of some model biases to keep in mind as winter unfolds. Hopefully this is the first of many tracking situations that actually works out for us to some extent. -

Back edge is moving over me now. The snow band is expanding, cold air seems to be passing through the moisture faster or maybe it's being enhanced more, but I'll bet Knox-East and NE exceed WWA criteria. -

Closing in on an inch, it's just been pouring for the last hour + now. -

The burst of sleet here laid down a coating of ice that actually aided in sticking of everything. The sleet pellets were oddly large. Guess it was the big flakes melting and refreezing. -

Moderate to heavy snow now, but its booking out of here. Hopefully we can get some rotation back this way. Not sure that we have much more than 30 minutes or so left though. Ground, decks, cars etc covered. -

Still a good portion of what's falling is sleet. The warm nose is apparently potent up there somewhere. -

Sleet/snow mix has finally started. Looks like maybe 2 hours of precip still to go for my area. -

Down to 32 but still no precip. Just misty. See that Crossville is picking up LT snow now. That's basically upstream for me. -

Precip has died here and upstream of here. Will see if the precip in the mid state can get here, thinking I'll be lucky to get dusting at this point. -

Looks like the precip is breaking up for a bit, right as the changeover was getting close. -

Changing over at elevation above me. I'd guess 2500 feet is changed. -

Down to 39 now. Snow is breaking out in Fentress on the radar. -

The snow line looks like it's moving at about 25 mph. Its about 75 miles WNW of me. -

Somerset is 34 but with rain still. Hopefully it's close to switching over. A shame to waste QPF at that temp. -

It's a potent from. My area is modeled to be around 23 by day break. -

John1122 replied to BlunderStorm's topic in Tennessee Valley
Just absolutely pouring rain right now. I always hate the hours waiting on a changeover, using up QPF. Wouldn't be shocked to see it fall apart here as shown on some modeling and see it redevelop over the eastern areas. Looks ragged downstream in the cold, without that enhancement on the front the far eastern areas look like they might get, I'm thinking maybe 1/2 inch for me. -

Gusty NW winds, temp is 46, looks like you get from 50-40 in a big hurry then it slowly falls into the 30s. Looks like its taking 34-35 to switch.
