For y'all up the valley, toward SW VA and TRI, I can't wait until you get these bands. 100% worth the wait! -

Crazy drive back from Kingsport. 50 or to start, and some nice prefrontal clouds heading down 81: around MM 34: around MM 18, on the hill on 81 just north of Morristown: The temp dropped from 52 on my car thermometer, to 42, between Strawberry Plains and Downtown Knoxville Once I hit Oak Ridge, it was down to 36. A winter wonderland up her on the plateau!!!: Pretty unreal up here with the snow and the wind. -

How will the Holston and Bays mountain look in 24 hours? Drippy right now -
I may have missed it, but did anyone see this from MRX overnight? "With the strong signal for CSI, banding is expected and would not be surprised to even see a lightning strike with stronger bands across far NE TN and SW VA."

You can start to see the energy at the bottom of the trough doing it's thaaaang: The first image is the SPC's mesoscale analysis of 500 mb potential vorticity. The next image is the upper level WV from GOES 16. On that one, in real time, you can see: the red line is the energy at the bottom, the backing of the flow in response to the energy digging and tilting (arrows and the back line), and finally, what we want to look for, moisture being lifted back up, over N. MS (circle). Sorry it is so fast. We are waiting on a second piece of energy to sorta, schmaybe phase, with the bottom one, to back the flow a bit more, and get some more lift, before the deep moisture runs away: RGEM (because, why not, I'm riding it into the sunset today, might as well go for my best case scenario), says that should start to happen around 2PM Eastern, 1PM Central today. So just in time for a Bonanza Christmas episode on MeTv today. Obligatory RGEM image:

It’s a stout line. Will be interesting to see how long thunder stays with it!

The dynamics of this system are, in some ways, already out performing the models. NAMs, WRF-ARW2, HRRR, and RGEM for 9 PM tonight, vs reality:

I think so. There is a Mountain Wave forecast for this system. So far, at least in my area, its dynamics are stout.

Working now. Not sure what happened for a bit. Probably that well-shaped dollop again.

Always like it when the airmass is so cold, you can see it in IR satellite during the day: Grays that look like clouds sliding through SE OK, but there are no clouds, just cold: Front is popping some convection now too, over central AR: and speaking of lapse rate snow showers, they look pretty healthy in the upper left of that gif, over KS
