Driving south today towards Cross Mountain above Caryville.

That one knocked my power out for four days and it was extremely cold in its wake. Another event followed a few days later here. -
January 2023 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
John1122 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
I believe it snowed from New Orleans and Houston to Charleston, SC while we were dry and frigid. It was a 2 week spell nearly as cold as Christmas week that just passed. I prefer my EPO driven cold of the 2014-15 variety. It spurred two weeks of brutal winter in late February and early March.- 923 replies

Last year they had a decent one and then cut the totals in half on a new map they released later that same day, that one was extremely bad.
-
Not shockingly, the map is wildly off in my area.
-
If not for a couple of melt offs I'd probably have about 4 inches. Half an inch melt off around 10am. Then lost almost 3/4ths of an inch before steady snow finally set in late afternoon/evening.
-
About 2.75 inches.
-
Went to Cross Mountain today just west of where it says Caryville there on the map. About 6 to 7 inches of snow there with some 12-15 inch drifts at about 3300 feet.
-
I didn't expect it to stay cold with snow flurries today. Ended up with 2.75 inches last night. 4+ above 2500.
-
That what came in several waves here this late afternoon and evening. It's a fun ride!
-
It looks like you're just west of a heavy band that's been rolling for several hours. A friend in Stoney Fork on the back side of Cross Mountain in far SW Campbell had an inch before dark at around 1300 feet elevation.
-
Sorry buddy. It's been NNW flow this evening and it usually works out here and it did today. Figured you'd get a couple inches too.
-
Still cranking out there. Back to full blown heavy snow at 29.9 degrees. Well under 1/4th mile visibility.
-
Been pouring down again for the last hour. Over 2 inches now. Here, the sticking on the ground line is about 1300 feet. Or was when I went down to town about an hour ago. I'd wager some of those 5-7 inch totals some high res models were trying to spit out on the mountain tops here will verify. Above 2500 feet there was 3 inches at 4pm.
-
Have about 1.25 inches now. Still coming down pretty hard.
-
That was one heck of a snow shower that lasted a good while. Slacking off now. But got up towards half dollar sized flakes for a while and put down nearly 3/4ths in on the grass and leaves.
-
Quarter+ sized flakes still ripping down. It's breaking into the valley, a friend in Rocky Top said it was coming down hard there a few minutes ago.
-
Heaviest snow of the day coming through right now. Around 1/4th mile vis. Hopefully we can get a few more of these towards dark.
-
Ground is covered again. Was covered around 10am but melted off. Above me 500 feet it looks like a winter wonderland in between thick snow showers.
-
There's not a lot of NW flow here, it's almost N or NNW flow. Very little SE movement in anything,
-
Coming down pretty well here now. Hopefully it can maintain this into the evening as it hooks up with Lake Michigan and starts flowing.
-
Looks like radar returns should get here in the next 45 minutes and future radar seems to show them sticking around until tonight. I've often found in this situations in the last hour or so before dark things start to really pick up.
-
MRX added a WWA for here. Looks like things should pick up this afternoon and evening. Nice looking moisture upstream.
-
That will have to rise from about 800 feet to 3000ish as it moves right across my area.
