TellicoWx replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Final piece of the puzzle maybe @Holston_River_Rambler...MRX AFD this morning: Once we get into the afternoon hours the lapse rates above the low level inversion increase enough that a few hundred J/kg of CAPE may be present in the atmosphere. This is enough to warrant the mention of the possibility for occasional rumbles of thunder, mainly across the central and southern Valley this afternoon. -

Yeah, for that thing to even show greater than 2" is incredible at this range lol -

While I agree, and to a certain extent hope it does. That run is actually plausible. You have to go way, way back in the history books, but a system leading into and exiting this type pattern is there. Would be a 1 in 100 year type scenario.- 1,263 replies

As crazy as it sounds...that GFS run had the potential to be way bigger than the above snow map...if the second system had got going a touch sooner and turned the corner it would have been lights out...literally.- 1,263 replies

Quick search for streaks below freezing (have to go back to 1890's): Nashville : 9 days Knoxville: 10 days So while tracking snow is fun, we could possibly looking at at least a top 5 historic cold streak. -

TellicoWx replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
I was trying to think of a similar setup earlier today, and honestly I can't. Doesn't mean it didn't happen, so maybe @John1122, @Holston_River_Rambler, @Carvers Gap, or any of the other great historical posters we have here can. Kinda giving my age away a little, but first system I tracked (if you wanna call it that back then) using a hand drawn map while scribbling in the old noaa reporting stations info on a radio every hour, was the storm I won't name in 93. -

The tailend of a front drapping across the gulf with a wave or energy left behind is historically the #1 way to get a southern snowstorm. Typically happens at the beginning of an arctic outbreak or when the pattern begins to relax (more of an ice threat then), every so often both. Miller As are typically not major deals for middle/west TN. What is not typical is there is usually alot more separation between a dying frontal wave and the cyclogenisis of a follow up wave (so model error may be unusually high with this setup). West/middle TN needs to score with wave #1 fluff bomb (due to very high ratio)...ETN has to rely on wave #2...this is almost like tracking two completely different setups at the same time. -

Slight uptick in the GEFS...steady as she goes. Also, can see a little semblance of possible moisture being banked up against the Plateau/Mountains (that wouldn't be well picked up on until 24hr or less out, could enhance snowfall in those areas). -

Not a true southern snow storm unless we get a half the board, cliff diving moment (only to get reeled back in)...like all the greats in the past had lol -

Yeah this system should bring back many happy memories and old scars of model days from long ago...finally we have a good Ole fashioned thread the needle for glory or bust system lol...Funny how so much tech has changed in past 10-15 yrs, but here in the weather modeling world things have stayed the same. -

Now need to get this inside the 72-84hr window...models are known to have an almost mini truncation point during that time. If any big move is going to happen that's the window I look at. -

If it digs and slows/separates wave #2 (Red Circle surface reflection) a hair more...Blue arrow is wave #1 departing. -

Middle and especially West TN looking more like they are gonna score a double whammy...1st from the initial wave before it generates a low too far east to help ETN, and the second that generates the Miller A type wave.- 1,263 replies
