GBOVolz Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Not a huge fan of the radar right now. Snow has basically stopped in my neck of the woods.Some of this is below the radar, especially as we go through the night when the DGZ lowers. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewman22001 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago We have about an inch or a little better in Rutledge Park area in Knoxville, Tennessee. It’s still coming down.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago This was always going to be a slow burn for everyone. It's snowed for almost 6 hours here to get 2.5 inches and I'm over performing what I expected. It's going to be a duration event more than a huge burst event. Further east may get the burst. But for most it's more that it's going to be really cold and average probably 1/4th to 1/2 inch an hour for 10 to 16 more hours. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep and I love heavy snow, but I'm also never opposed to a long duration lighter snowfall either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Have close to 1.5in now. Still snowing. Temp is down to 25 dewpoint 24. The front must have moved through here about 30min ago bc the wind has increased substantially and the temp drop from 27 to 25 in that 30 min. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearman Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago We are just getting almost nothing in West Knox even though I am in the 4 to 5 inch area. It is hard to bet against Carver, I just don't think we are going to get a lot of help from the east low. Could be wrong, but it's not looking good on Radar People like John can score on these events, but I think this is mostly going to be an extream cold wringing out moisture event.

nrgjeff Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Yes light snow has been falling in East Brainerd, Chattanooga probably for 30 min or more per other in-town and 'burbs reports. I was watching the Michigan and MSU game. Half-time is check floodlight out window time! Thank you Signal Mountain crew for the earlier reports. Now we just settle in. This system radar and ground truth might have lower than usual correlations. Flakes growing in EB but yeah I think this is just an initial snow band. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ULL snows haven't begun yet, this was just bonus snow from the frontal passage. I expect several hour lull, with just flurries. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the cold squeezing out moisture as the front passes. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellicoWx Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Anything guys got so far no model picked and is part of reason I thought we had potential to bust high in places. Models picked up no omega right now, yet here we are. Now if 4am rolls round and its just a flurry here or there then may get nervous. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricaneguy Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Almost at 2'' in Greeneville. My street is almost covered. Settling in for hopefully epic 12 hrs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountainguy97 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 26.5 here and down to a heavy glitter falling. The flow has shifted and should enhance southern areas for the next few hours. When the pivot begins moisture will back up against the mountains again. I'd guess 3" here, yard has that bumpy look right before it smooths out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago The HRRR really gets rolling in the valley in a few hours and looks heavier down 81, and 75 through Knoxville and south by 2, 3, 4am etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a little over a quarter of an Inch. Most of that came down very early, just shortly after dark. It has been snowing without stopping very very lightly with tiny flakes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago I do think the best lift comes in around midnight or just after for TRI and holds for a few hours. Though to be sure, empty or meh radars leave me depending in total faith on modeling and a concern this lacks some energy which was modeled. Let’s see where the 0z models go. I think they turn downward west of 81. If not, we could be in good shape. IMBY, this was scheduled to start around 2:00PM and run until Sunday early. It started around 1:00PM. To my surprise, it didn’t stick until the sun went down. And according to the WSW, rush hour could have been bad. Fortunately and thankfully, that didn’t happen. So at this point we wait. I continue to say the usual NW slope winners of the past…will be winners now. The cold front “should” get everyone to 2-3” outside of Chatty…and I never venture a guess there. To get higher totals, we are gonna need more energy building back as modeled or have an elevation advantage. Like John said…slow burn. IMBY…very slow burn. But let’s see…this is a cold storm and that is a not so common occurrence. There will be surprises almost assuredly - Captain Obvious. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
