Summer-Fall 2024 Weather Disco Med/Long Range
BlunderStorm replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
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.- 688 replies

Summer-Fall 2024 Weather Disco Med/Long Range
BlunderStorm replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
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- 688 replies

Summer-Fall 2024 Weather Disco Med/Long Range
BlunderStorm replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
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.- 688 replies

March/ Spring mid-long range

Getting some of the Aurora in 5-10 minute bursts at 37 N. -
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/

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.

Winter 23-24' Wx Observations Thread
BlunderStorm replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
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! -
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.

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. -
January 15th-17th 2024 Arctic Blast/Snow Event
BlunderStorm replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
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. -

A possible example of this can be seen right now in Florence, Alabama. Radar is showing heavy snow returns over there but the webcam shows a mix of precip types. https://florenceharbor.com/index.php/350-2/
