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. -

That video was taken before the heaviest precip starts. Imagine that, but with larger than half dollar sized flakes -

Sleet and snow up here in Mossy Grove for now, but I could see the snow line dropping down the Frozen Head mts as I drove back in from Harriman. 4-5 degree temp difference between my place and Harriman. -

Well, wrt to the above I realized my circle included Nashville where there could be obs at the 850 level, but I meant my point to be more regarding the area between Nashville and Knoxville. -

@EastKnox I think this is a situation where the mesoscale analysis is a little too course. There can't be any radiosondes giving 850 mb data in the circled area, and I doubt there are any planes flying that low to give obs. I was looking at that area earlier and trying to figure out why there was a jump NW with 850 temps there and the only thing I can figure, is that since that mesoscale analysis uses the RAP, that's just the RAPs best guess, in areas without direct observations. Of course I'm also in full weather weenie wishcast mode, so take that into account, lol. -

Looks like the dry air is being overcome pretty quickly near Nashville: I'm guessing those bright returns are a sleet and snow mix, but not sure. -

Brilliant sunrise up here on the plateau. I tried to edit it a bit to capture the colors, but no way to do it justice:
