  1. 12Z GFS says near 0 Christmas Eve on the Plateau with a few inches of snow on the ground... May be the coldest TN weather I've ever experienced!
  2. Just hit 36°, 40+ hours below freezing! Just missing some snow on the ground
  3. Made it 30.4° for about 5 mins, back to 28° Can't believe Saturday morning it was in the mid 50s lol Going on 25 hours below freezing
  4. Hit 24.6° with a very light dusting on elevated surfaces. Windchill got to 14°! Edit - Still 27 at 1030 est
  5. Just started snowing very fine flakes 30°
  6. Yeah, wife and I moved from Knoxville to the Plateau just outside Soddy-Daisy at an elevation of 2100', really hoping we see a little more snow than we did in Knoxville! Being up in the clouds is a new experience for me, it is a very strange feeling as an avid weather watcher ha Thanks for sharing! Gonna take some time to shake off the warm nose PTSD Sure looks like the GFS wants a warmup in about 10 days, only to be reloading the cold back our way around day 15 Nice little wind gust and temps are finally dropping into the 40s at the moment, stayed in the mid 50s since last night.

  7. Anyone buying the highres NAM? Looks like we'd get a solid dusting tomorrow night up on Walden Ridge/Plateau
  8. 26.1 on Waldens Ridge north of Chatt
  9. Lucked out and got a whole entire 0.28 inches of rain up on the plateau north of Chattanooga. Had a couple of nice nearly 40 MPH wind gusts so that was fun haha I think we have lucked out way more than the valley has with rainfall, last rains before this event ... 0.2 on 9-24 0.18 9-19 0.28 9-9 2.5 9-2 Seems our leaves are quite a bit more vibrant up here than most of valley, not sure if that's related to the heat/dry stress or what https://ambientweather.net/dashboard/e282c48a530774756d7f28aa542a6394/graphs
  10. I know the forecast is all over the place, but Chattanooga's Stump Jump race next Saturday sure looks like it could be extremely raw weather from Isn Heavy rain, winds, and temps in the 50s-60s wouldn't be fun
  11. Already a chilly 55° up on Flattop https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KTNSODDY114 Edit - Low of 51.8°!
  12. I think I am going to make a trip to the Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge this weekend, I really think one of the radar donut's is originating there. Now watch my luck and Ill kayak to the refuge early in the morning only to discover its a mayfly hatch haha Also, random but I will be opening a B&B/VRBO Tiny Homes eventually up on Walden's Ridge in the next year. We have about the lowest light pollution in most of the state (zodiacal light is clearly visible), so star gazing, lighting watching, satellite spotting etc is incredible. I sat out the last two nights and watched the lightning show from storms 40-60 miles north in Knoxville and Sevierville... if you have never seen a Starlink Train, this is the place to see it ha Basically I am trying to setup a B&B for people who like nature, escape the valley heat, star gazing, and want to chase cool weather events (2100 feet elevation), just mention this in case anyone wants to have a gathering one day! We are walking distance to the CT as well so great resource if anyone ever needs a thru hike stop
  13. Random question, any ideas what these biological returns on radar may be? The larger donut return near Dayton appears centered of the Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge. I've noticed these returns nearly every morning for a few weeks. First thought was bats, but leaving in the AM wouldn't make sense
  14. Moved the family recently to Waldens Ridge north of Chattanooga with an elevation of 2100' Had some temps briefly dip below 70 in some of the storms this afternoon, glad to have a little reprieve from the heat
  15. Ktys, 70 to 57 in 13 mins That was intense haha
  16. Got a solid round of heavy mothball sized hail near KTYS, covered the ground and drains for a good bit
  17. Showing about 7" at my house near Mghee Tyson. My wife and I live on a steep gravel road, about 1/2 mile long, with somewhat unforgiving asphalt roads around our house We are having our first child Monday morning (via c-section)!!!! You guys think roads would be an issue at all early Monday morning? Looks to be below freezing when we head to the hospital at 4AM. I have plenty of salt and a leaf blower just in case haha I know it's overkill but you can't be to careful
  18. NW snow machine blesses a select few. About 1.5" near Mghee Tyson
  19. Had a nice little burst of snow near TYS, coated everything quickly
  20. We've got an official flizzard ongoing near TYS Ground/drive instantly lightly coated
  21. Downsloping in the central valley?
  22. Just started snowing near Mghee Tyson Airport, not much but you can see it
