  1. ETSU an hour ago: About half an inch remains from the first burst of snow in the grass. Will be interesting to see how the snow handles the toasty ground for the rest of the night.
  2. As a personal anecdote I know my family in Honaker doesn't have any power. Those outage maps you posted earlier would likely indicate it's just as bad down in Scott co. Hope he's alright.
  3. Stay safe folks. A Flash Flood Emergency just got called over Johnson City so that was a decent alarm clock. Fortunately power is holding steady. https://x.com/NWSMorristown/status/1839667235289522400?t=ZTDwJPRajrSxHkf4gXFPvA&s=19
  4. Lots of activity bubbling up north of Beryl's center. I wonder if as the core unravels this morning we could see the center of low pressure shift over to the north some?
  5. That and we have been in a lengthy recon drought without any reliable radar sources, it's pretty much been see what GOES-16 says for the past while. Still Beryl has shown some signs she is mortal and that bears some limited good for Jamaica however hellish it will still be.
  6. Here is the latest radar return from Barbados, it looks dare I say practically complete with the EWRC...
  7. Beryl is beginning to show up on Barbados radar. https://www.barbadosweather.org/Radars/LeafScripts/BMSRadarProducts.php
  8. So if I am reading whatever this is correctly it is projecting a 50% chance of having max winds intensification equal to +45 knots at the 36 hour range marking 120 knot / 138 mph winds. Roughly when it is between Barbados and the windward islands... Yikes.
  9. Today marks 8 days since the last rainfall, 5 of which reached 90F. The grass remains in decent shape but the drought should begin to set in if we don't see relief here in the next few days.
  10. Getting some of the Aurora in 5-10 minute bursts at 37 N.
  11. With razor thin margins like that you may want to reconsider. The exact borders of the eclipse path are hard to ascertain for sure. This article may interest you, https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamiecartereurope/2024/03/30/why-your-total-solar-eclipse-map-is-suddenly-wrong/?sh=a1b40e43d7d4 Also here is the map by John Irwin with the slightly altered eclipse path parameters. Whether he's correct, who knows. https://www.besselianelements.com/path-of-the-2024-april-8th-total-solar-eclips/
  12. I've narrowed it down with my family to 2 remaining reservations. Either I'll be in southern Illinois/Missouri (Carbondale/Cape Girardeau) or I'll be in Indiana (Shelbyville/Bloomington). The former looks marginally better than the latter but at the expense of added drive time.
  13. Thunder and lightning in JC! Some decent gusts too, wish I had a station down here.
  14. This morning the North Fork of the Holston was frozen over hwy 19. So was the Clinch in Honaker. (sort of) actually there were still some small open spots on both rivers among larger swathes where it was froze straight across but still!
  15. Inexplicably I'm holding the line at 31.5. Air is dry with a dp of 11. Seems warmer in every direction on wunderground. The skies are a solid wall of grey. There's certainly juice up there and probably warm air aloft to boot. This may not be pretty. I'd welcome the virga if it could cool the column for pure snow.
  16. Finally beginning to wrap up. Here's a slow mo of the final wave a few moments ago.
  17. John may have released the trailer for the cash grab sequel snowstorm but this one has a heck of a post credits scene. No clue when it will finally end lol.
  18. Today was a nearly perfect 24 hours of snowfall. While lacking in some of the stronger bursts seen further south it made up for it with consistency. At no point was mixing an issue. As of midnight I officially report 6.2 inches for the day. An extra inch overnight wouldn't surprise me. It's been fun.
  19. 25 with light snow persisting under the radar. 6+ inches have fell.
  20. The hammer is coming down now! Snowfall rates have reduced visibility to nearly half a mile. The road is covered and temps are maxxed for today at 29. Approaching 5 inches shortly!
  21. Sitting at 3 inches and climbing. I may be behind but I'm also late! Rates are consistently moderate with visibility of a mile. Temps rose again but are starting to plateau at 29.
