  1. Weather Channel app is picking up on something in that time frame for our area with snow, rain, and freezing rain around the 19th. Posted earlier but had a typo fat fingering the date. Hopefully, the southern valley near Georgia border can actually get some white on the ground. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  2. I'm happy for everyone. It was amazing the difference of a few miles in the Chattanooga area. I'm in Ooltewah where we might have received 1/4" of snow. 6 miles to our north started the accumulating snowfall. 2" and then higher totals of 6-10. All the snow was north and east of us 6 miles. Maybe 8 miles away in Harrison near the lake 4" was widespread. We received the warm nose shaft here. Oh so close. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  3. Off topic a little, but we are thinking about having lunch at Turkey Creek. Watching all the local Knoxville Tv stations today, it looks like the interstate is fine driving north on 75. I'm just curious if anyone here has any local knowledge if anything is open. I've already called Smoky Mountain Brewery and Connors. I can't get anyone on the phone, which tells me they are probably closed and haven't updated their message. I am really wanting a T Rex pizza. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  4. I know ya'll will think I've lost my mind for saying this , but on my couch in my peripheral vision , I thought I saw a flash of light out of the south/southeast facing window in my house. I wrote it off as a light from Miller Industries up the ridge behind me. I kept looking, and 1 or 2 minutes later, I saw it again. I saw it 1 more time after that a minute later. It was a purplish/greenish color. I don't think there's any way it could be lightning, but I have no clue what else it could be. We are currently sitting at 28° and freezing rain. On the other side of Miller is interstate 75, so I have no clue what it could have been other than a few lightning strikes. I walked outside on the patio and filmed for a few minutes, and of course, nothing else happened. I will say the ground is now a sheet of ice, and the trees are glistening. Is it possible there was enough energy in the area to have a few strikes of lightning, or am I losing my mind? On a side note, I considered a blown transformer, but it was too high in the sky to be that. Thoughts? Edit to add: I added a screenshot of the radar at the time I saw it. It "looks" like there might be something down in Georgia in the yellow area that "could" be the culprit. My weather station is showing zero lightning strikes . Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  5. My buddy jn Chattanoga is a home inspector. His roofer friend posted this today. Looks like he might be a little cold in the video. [emoji51] https://www.facebook.com/share/p/xRziFt1EQACa1skZ/?mibextid=xfxF2i Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  6. Like a light switch! Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  7. We aren't getting it. I'm in southern Hamilton County. Everything that is white is from sleet. We've probably had 80% sleet and 20% snow. All sleet for the last few hours. I'll take a screenshot of my Ring. Everything white is sleet. Here's a picture I just took from Ring. We missed out due to mixing. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  8. Congrats on everyone getting a good one! North Hamilton County is doing very well. Southern Hamilton, not so much. We just can't keep a steady snow. The start/stop of the snow is making very hard Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  9. We keep switching from fatties, like now at 11:20 , and back to sleet Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  10. It's been puking in Ooltewah for a little while now. It looks like the rain snow line is a hair to our south. Is it possible for us to stay all snow in the transition zone and overperform? I know it's a computer generated forecast, but TWC took us from 1-3" to 5-8" right after the moderate snow started. I'll take half that amount and call it a day down here!

  11. North Hamilton County has reports of moderate snow. Snow started in full force here (Ooltewah) at 9:30am. Big flakes and looked great for 5 minutes. It stopped 5 minutes later. 🫤 Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  12. This is the stuff that you can't make up. [emoji1787] Nothing reaching the ground at our house. Temp is a steady 31° with a Virga storm overhead. The best part is that it is snow everywhere overhead except Chattanooga. A blob of pink. [emoji1787] Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  13. We have absolutely nothing. We had light sleet and a quick changeover to light snow around 10:00pm. That lasted maybe 5 or 10 minutes. Everything missed us to the north and east. Local tv channels have backed wayyyy off. Anything from a dusting to 1 or 2". Local NBC just shows a mix icon. He said we would have a mix all day with temps in the mid 30's. I just don't see it happening here. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  14. Temp down to 34 and all snow. It's light snow, but it's trying to pick up in intensity. Patio is wet, and our neighbor's recycle can lid has turned white. You know it's been a while for snow when you're looking at a trash can lid for snow cover. [emoji28] Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
  15. I can confirm 36° with light sleet and a few flurries. I live in Ooltewah just outside Chattanooga on 75N 15 miles from Cleveland. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk
