January Medium-Long Range Discussion
John1122 replied to Holston_River_Rambler's topic in Tennessee Valley
The GFS kinda brought back winter in early February....this is a result of a 3 or 4 day winter storm that just slams us. Lots of sleet too. This would be a repeat of Feb 1996.- 1,263 replies

Fall/Winter Banter - Football, Basketball, Snowball?
John1122 replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
It snowed truck beds full here. It was the first winter storm that I did a snow board and cleaned it off for measurements every three hours. -
There's been no sun here today at all. It was in the 20s this morning and froze up hard and clouded up over it. That kept the peak temp way down.
-
Went out and did several measurements. Still close to 5 inches on the ground. Made it to 42 today but I'm back in the 30s now.

Do you have a link for the MJO charts back to the mid-70s?- 1,263 replies

Went down to 26 this morning and clouded up. Finally made it to 40 for the first time in a loooong time. Snow pack is like wet cement under the cloudy skies. Roads are still extremely slick in areas where plows haven't reached and the sun doesn't shine.

Some of the issue is that they take snow depth at a fixed time every day and don't count snowfall that happens that day as snow depth. You can look back at records and see things like 6 inches of snowfall on January 15th but snow depth will be 0 or a trace etc according to what time the snow fell that day. Even in the chart Flash posed there it says 6.3 inches of snow fell on February 1st 1985 but snow depth is only one inch. I quickly found another day where it says snow depth was a trace on a day with 5 inches of snowfall recorded. Now I think snow depth is recorded as whatever the snowfall is that day, or close to it with compacting etc factored into the equation.

It got up to 38 today and it's 29 now. Neither feel cold after this last week.

I don't see how they didn't manage this in the 1970s.

A couple days ago the forecast high today was 33, then it was 31, looks like I'm gonna top out at 26, as the sun is setting here. After the high being 11 yesterday, and -4 this morning, technically our 4th day below zero, of this outbreak. This one will definitely go down in the memory banks for 95 percent of the forum. It stinks that the far southeast areas mostly missed out, but it just shows how hard it is to get a truly statewide event. The Arctic Invasion that allowed a forum wide winter storm in 1996 had highs near 0 and lows in the -20 range. This is like a mini version of it.

-4 here this morning. Currently 2. If this break we're getting wasn't going to be filled with flooding, I'd be happy to see it.

There was a stout feed coming off Lake Michigan. This air mass helped too.

See that even Nooga is reporting snow from this. I know it's uncommon for it not to evaporate due to downsloping off the Southern Plateau.

The RGEM and GFS kept nudging a 3 inch line really close to me and I may get there myself. The energy for this is still going into central Kentucky. Every end time MRX has forecast today has passed with snow still falling. Originally they'd had a 20 percent chance of overnight snow showers but removed it with the evening forecast. They look like they have at least a little while to go.
