*Flash*

'Tis the season to make lemonade out of lemons. This in response to my son's comment, "Dad, why doesn't it ever snow here on Christmas?" #challengeaccepted

Last night was intense! I was out chasing between 2:45-3:30 am CT to stream this tornado as it approached my location near the Hwy 70/Kingston Springs Rd. intersection. At one point, the power (and consequently my feed) shut off. While I didn’t see the tornado, I did vehicularly experience the rapid inflow. I really had no reason being out there apart from the fact I can’t help myself. While I live in White Bluff, I’ve been residing in Kingston Springs the past few months (due to NICU proximity, our house flooded in October; it’s been a crazy year). Essentially, this EF-2 thread the 6-7 mile needle between these towns with the greatest local damage occurring in the Foggy Bottoms areas westward towards the Cheatham/Dickson county line.

Back at ya! I lurk by choice now but it's fun to flash an engagement during historical events.

Not sure if it helps but the last time most of middle TN saw anything past 1.5/2" was Jonas (January 22-23, 2016). Our wait for anything beyond an anklebiter was over 5 years. December 2017/December 2018 had winter storms pass to our south and east. Those times were rough (though not nearly as bad as the Nashville snowdome winter of 2013-14; I'll let you fellow weenies do some digging on that). Anywho...you guys will be back on the board again. I would bet $ next winter or 2022-23.

Nice! Glad to see you're getting some action already!

Euro trends are encouraging. While I won't hold my breath, it's nice to see blue shades close to home.

Honestly, I don't care if the [potential] cool down is transient. I'll take any part of December actually feeling like December anytime.

Crazy. But even middle TN isn't out of the woods on measurable snow next Monday. For us to get anything above a trace this time of a year is a big deal.

Interesting looking map with two narrow bounded dry regions. Personally, I think this forecast map is fair-er than past versions though I still think many on here do a better job.

Share some with Kentucky and Tennessee and I 100% agree. If not, I'll settle for some more I-44 snow-chases. People in my area have to travel nowadays to see anything appreciable.
