The fast rise in temps have slowed to a crawl. I've been sitting at 24º for the past hour. Solar heating is probably done for the day as the sun is behind cloudcover as mid-level clouds are rolling into the region. I suppose it will be a slow warm-up through the overnight hours with the southerly flow increasing. May get some snow or frozen precip out of the incoming system yet.

Latest sounding in Huntsville/Madison AL shows the WAA has arrived (see link).

Snow has transitioned to sleet/frz rain now.  Looks like the next batch of precip will be frz rain/sleet.

 

Lots of people stuck on the roads, roads closed/closing... gee, wonder why?  :snowing:

Chattanooga to EB picked up an inch to inch and a half of snow when the light to moderate band moved through during the evening (Friday). Hixson and Soddy north of town might have been more. Next batch of precip later tonight for Chatty will probably be freezing rain. Still, the initial snow band worked out well. Everybody downstream enjoy!

Roads in north alabama are treacherous and often impassable tonight, and we are expecting up to 0.3' inches of freezing rain in a bit. It's amazing to me how many people have been driving in these conditions.

Good deal, you all.  Bout time you get in on the action!  Freezing cold here.  My sidewalk is prime to bust my rear.  Need some melting or snow.  That line coming through means business.

That line gave us some decent snow, but it has beefed up since then.

Hope everyone in TN stays safe and off the roads tonight.

Chatty still has a half inch of crusty snow even as temps sit above freezing this Saturday morning. Credit the very cold ground. Nothing in the trees, so I think we had more sleet than freezing rain overnight, but a friend up late confrims some FZRA. Temps got above freezing as light rain was ending this morning.
