    One of those dollops doubled my snow while I was asleep, waiting on Sandy Claws!! 3.5 - 4 in a few choice places !!! glad to see Dandridge is ok!
  2. Holston_River_Rambler
    Oh yeah!:

    Snow dog: She decided it would be a good idea to go waller in the snow!

    It is such a cold/dry airmass, I was wondering how well those models progs would verify. I will take fine flakes!

    Thanks for the update, was curious about those radar returns.

    I know which house you are talking about. I grew up a few houses away, lived there from 1983 - 2007. One of my best friends lived in that house for a while. Good times on that road and the mountain for me!

    Not sure. I do think the mechanism that is generating the NW flow is the upper low and the lift that it creates in front of it is what's generating the snows currently over eastern areas. I suspect it's one or the other. Not a dumb question at all.

    Some of the long-awaited snow bands associated with the upper low and lapse rates are starting to develop over KY and Middle TN:

    Rain/snow line racing toward TRI:

    About to be an epic Christmas eve for a few hours for some folks in NE TN and SW VA!!!

    Has anyone checked on Dandridge? Is it still there?
  12. Holston_River_Rambler
    2 inches and I'm in the same boat as McMinn and Shawn
  13. Holston_River_Rambler
    Indeed it is.

    The gifs just weren't doing it justice:

    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.

    Wet bluebirds are fattening up here in Kingsport:

    Right over top of my house. Wish I was there! I’m in Kingsport now, about to head back that way.

    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:

    C'mon blocking, help us out: That's the spirit!

    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:
