I watched it tonight (wasn't really listening to what was being said though) and they seemed to be fairly serious about what could happen. They had 4 counties in bright pink (on the plateau) as the "heaviest snow area" but I didn't hear them give specific amounts. But the snow axis they showed on screen and a couple other things made me think they were looking at it as being much more significant than WATE was. I believe on the 5pm broadcast they weren't as enthused about it as they were at 11 though (based on the article on their website from the 5pm broadcast)
-
Sorry I had the TV on WATE and rewound it after your initial comments and paused immediately when I saw the low in Memphis. Then after I unpaused it I saw that it somehow got even worse when it went straight up to Nashville lol. I haven't seen anything even close to that on any of the outputs.
-
They showed the low going through Memphis?? Is that being backed up anywhere?
-
My bad, I was looking at the year wrong lol. I thought you were referring to February 20-21, 2021. Yes, we started as snow, then sleet, and then heavy freezing rain in the February 21, 2015 storm. Woke up with no power and trees laying everywhere with over an inch of ice on everything. I'd say it tied the Feb 1998 snowstorm we had in SEKY where I lived for the worst storm I've been in. Our vehicle was pretty much glued to the ground (Sorry to derail thread for a sec). East TN did get mostly snow out of it, even in the valley ares. Definitely was a weird one.
-
Ah ok. I think on the Plateau where I live, we didn't get anything from that storm. But we did have snow on the 16th and/or 17th that started out as heavy snow before going to sleet, and then plain old rain.
-
Oh ok. I don't really remember any ice storms here the last couple of years so maybe we got snow too or something else while other parts of town got ice. Really, the one in 2015 is the last one I can remember here but it also stood out because of how bad it was. We had two ice storms in the same week then with the second one on Saturday making it look like a tornado hit.
-
February 20, 2015? Worst ice storm in Cumberland County history if so. I believe Kentucky got snow in that one though so maybe not. But places east of us also got snow that typically wouldn't have, especially when Crossville had freezing rain.
-
Yep, we got down to 7 or 8 in Crossville over the weekend and the pipes burst at work. Not fun to cleanup. It's been colder than last January here for sure

Historic Tennessee Valley Cold, Snow, and Ice Events
Shocker0 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
I know this is an older comment but the January 29-30, 2010 snow was a statewide event and most likely what the other poster is referring to. Almost the entire state got 4-12 inches from it with a warm nose causing some areas to get less, and more sleet and freezing rain. One place the poster can check is weather.gov snow cover maps and can see the snow coverage for every day in January 2010 (I believe they have maps going back to 2003 for snow cover) and narrow it down to what event it was. -
Here's a few more pictures from Crossville today that I took at the Campground nearby. It's snowing again here now from the band in Middle TN so maybe we can squeeze out another inch or two. Sorry for so many pics just playing with my camera and I really like the scenery there:

It's crazy because places in South Cumberland County/Central area only got a dusting in some places (Lake Tansi etc). I don't believe they got much more than that on Sunday either. It's crazy in this county/area how much more it snows in Mayland/Pleasant Hill/Monterey direction despite being similar elevation to most of the county. I guess it's where it smacks into that part of the Plateau first or something.
-
It's snowing harder than it has in a couple hours where I live in Crossville and the radar looks dried out here. But that happens a lot here in winter so may not mean anything really as far as this system goes.
-
That's what happened here, the first hour was super heavy and then it trailed off. Except on the radar it still looked heavy even though it was light, small flakes
-
This thing seems to be scooting out of here in a hurry?

That's crazy. It looks super heavy on radar. Similar boat here though, radar looks much heavier than what's actually falling. Everything that fell in the first 45 minutes here was a lot heavier snow
-
TDot cameras don't seem to be working, not sure if it's just me.
-
It's crazy the difference from one end of a county to another sometimes. It's been snowing pretty heavily for an hour in Western Cumberland County, but Fairfield Glade on the eastern side still has flurries and a light dusting: https://www.wate.com/weather/weather-cameras/fairfield-glade/

All this in 30 minutes, it's puking and big flakes now:

3 minutes later:

TWC had me at only 2.1" this morning on the hourly forecast and now says this. Hopefully it will move east and lay down a lot too then.
-
Cookeville picking up in intensity and already getting white:

Sitcking to everything pretty easily. Dryish snow and coming down hard.
