One thing missing from the MRX discussion—and a pet peeve of mine—is the lack of consideration for when the forecast is wrong. What if sun angles have less impact than expected? Roads could become covered and dangerous quickly and school systems often treat forecasts as certain for making decisions, when in reality, there should be more risk aversion for public safety. Warnings and advisories aren’t just about forecast accuracy—they’re about giving the public the right information to prepare and too many people don't take it seriously unless they are under an advisory or warning.

Curious to see what, if anything, develops on Sunday. Perhaps, a chance for a surprise or two come Monday?

Interstates to the north, south and west of Knoxville are in bad shape... Is there anything TDOT could have done ahead of it to be ready for it?

I am a snow lover not freezing rain fan. This time I hope the rain or freezing rain forecast doesn't verify. I don't know how with the 9 inches of snow in my driveway and on the neighborhood roads the rain doesn't freeze when it hits the cold pavement.

It looks like it's about to get swallow up by the snow...

Gotta drink them faster than that...

Based on my experience following MRX, when an event is this far out; they find the model that provides the least amount of snow and go with it in their communications with the public and that usually works out well for them, time will tell...
