Winter 2021/2022 January Thread
Holston_River_Rambler replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
If we can get thunder and lightning, while there is still old snow on the ground, and rain falling, I think that would be a whole new folklore sign. -

We need to try and squeeze out a thunder clap or two over the mts as this heads east tonight: You know, just for fun.... -

To follow up on what John said, the 0z GFS was what I call the space invaders pattern. The northern stream and the STJ keep shooting energy at each other like the old video game: -

Jan 6th-7th 2022 Second Chance Storm
Holston_River_Rambler replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
One option might be that the radar was detecting some virga from a narrow band of high clouds moving in: But, the radar site wasn't too far away and I would think if it were virga, it wouldn't show up so close to the site, indicating that it is at least as low level as the upslope. I really wish those high clouds weren't there so I could see the low level flow on IR imagery. We've seen a band in upslope south of Knoxville before, and the only thing I can think of is that some vagary in the low level flow in the valley reoriented that band towards the ENE -

Interesting little band of snow this morning south of I-40 and east of Knoxville: You can see the normal upslope north and northeast of Knoxville, moving NW to SE. But this little band south of I-40 kind of follows the interstate ENE. You'd think the upslope flow in the low levels would orient everything along the same direction, but apparently this was either at a different level of the atmosphere or something else was going on. -

I probably got another half inch from the last band. Moon peeking through the clouds now. -

Using only the most up-to-date, scientific, and careful measurements and analyses, and after peer reviewing it with many peers, I have come to the conclusion that this snowfall is equal to two beers:- 841 replies

I've been getting off and on again decent snow showers, some of it not picked up by radar. I may be around 2 inches. -

Back to all snow now. I think I just hit a bit of subsidence on the back side of that monstrous band that came through earlier. -

I must be just on the edge of the warm nose. As long as I have good rates, I have snow, but as soon as the rates drop off, it goes to a mix. -

Some of these flakes are bigger than golf balls. I don't think I've ever seen snowflakes this big. -
