Carvers Gap Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Very rough evening around the Tri-Cities. Had a friend lose a portion of his house due to a tree falling. Multiple reports of damage in the area w some structural according to MRX. Check wcyb and wihl on FB. Hopefully kvskelton will check in...looks like eastern Hawkins took a beating.

Runman292 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Rough storm went through Mid Tn,over 30k without power right now.Luckily we kept ours.Gonna be a long night for the electric workers. I think 22k lost power in Knoxville. Wind damage galore in East Tennessee the past few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Weekend storms packed a lot of energy with those temps and dews, plus a little more shortwave action upstairs than one would expect in July. Early Monday morning about 2,000 were still without power area-wide. They may be back on now if not soon. Temps and dews are both less impressive today, with nearly nothing upstairs. Marginal should cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyhound Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Any reports of a funnel cloud in the North Knoxville/ Southern Anderson Co. area? The wife and I were leaving a business in Powell when this storm cell blasted us. Two trees fell within 100 yards of us and we saw what appeared to be a funnel/wall cloud. Because of the terrain we weren't able to see how far it went to the ground. We tried to chase it, but weren't very successful. By the time we got to a clearing, the rain was too heavy for us to see anything. Whatever it was.....it was definitely hauling ass.

jaxjagman Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Drove the kids around looking for pokemon this afternoon.Nice cell popped up around the Nolensville area,not much convection but a down pour with some gusty winds.Looks like some good cells by Johns area right now or moving towards the west towards him Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Nashville TN 633 PM CDT SUN AUG 28 2016 .UPDATE... FOR MESOSCALE DISCUSSION... && .MESOSCALE DISCUSSION... Will likely update zones to extend our late afternoon forecast into the early evening hours to cover area of advancing convection over our eastern counties. This area of pulse storms should continue moving southwestward at about 16 kts, with the western edge of the main thunderstorm area likely to be near a line from Red Boiling Springs to Centertown by about 0130Z. Still expect these storms to diminish after the loss of sunlight, although it`s hard to know exactly how long they`ll maintain their vigor. A few nights ago, some of these same sort of late-day storms lasted until 10-11 pm CDT. We`ll just have to watch it and see how it goes. && Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Spotty reports of trees knocked down around the Chattanooga metro from Sunday storms. Nothing on my street or way, but some folks saw trees down on the way to work. News said one home was so badly damaged the family is in a motel now. Thankfully nobody was hurt.

Stovepipe Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 This initial line is going to split me. Serves me right for getting my hopes up haha. Bet TYS get's a tenth of an inch by morning, .2 tops. We need this rain in a serious way, hoping I'm wrong and this over performs. Congrats to those under the better returns!

FallsLake Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I'm on vacation in Gatlinburg / Townsend this week. Very dry here. Rivers and lakes way down. But I had a very good rain last night. I'm sure the tin roof on my cabin made it sound more impressive but any rain is great for this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knoxtron Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Wow, I am so blessed (sarcasm)... my rain gauge at home (Louisville TN) recorded 0.07 from Yesterday and Today.. enough to wash SOME of the dust off my windshield... Thankfully it appears that the Plateau faired better... there's a decent sized (100-200 acre) fire up at the Devils Racetrack (Cove Lake State Park) and extending approximately 4 miles northeast along the spine of Cumberland Mountain. This is from Jacksboro Walmart on Tuesday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whamby Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Enjoying the middle 60s here in CHA... too bad it's only going to last for 2 days. Then back to weird long stretches of dry and warm. The pattern of nightmares... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I managed to luck out .5 inches of rain from the showers. It's currently a brisk 54 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 A wx station near my house is reporting .38 of an inch. Better than nothing. Almost all summer showers dissipate as the reach TRI. We have had drizzle on and off this afternoon. Think northwest flow snow showers...but as rain. I hate it for you guys to the south. I knew that line was looking pretty flimsy, but 0.05!? Terrible.

Carvers Gap Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I have lived in this house for almost a decade and have never seen it this dry. There are places showing on the North Fork of the Holston that I am pretty sure I have never seen...maybe once during the late 80s. It looked mildly better this AM, but that will be temporary.

I have done some fishing out West. Frost in the morning followed by heat/wind in the afternoon. Good stats. What a swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knoxtron Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 The smoke in the central valley from ongoing forest fires/brush fires is insane at times, getting more and more disconcerting. I guess silver lining... beautiful sunsets atleast! This is from Monday (10-31). I could not make out ridges less than 1/4 mile away in West Knoxville at times monday. The smell of smoke in the air was acrid and choking. This days smoke seem to originate from the Cumberland mountain's/Plateaus many ongoing fires (including the fire I mentioned back on the 21st near Lafollete that is still on going/growing) This is from Tuesday (11-1). Different source of smoke (this time wafting up from the Cohutta Wilderness in Fannin County Georiga thats burned 1200 acres). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whamby Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 just for ****s 'n' giggles, I checked to see how many BN mean temp. days we've had at KCHA since the beginning of Met Summer...
