SnoJoe Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Like most around the mountains about 3 inches here as well. I'll go to the snowboard in a little while to get a good reading. Robert, this was an excellent call: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvskelton Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Currently in Church Hill, TN (10 miles SW of Kingsport, elevation 1215 +/-) we have light to moderate rain with a little frozen precip discernable in the mix. Winds approx 0-5mph with a few mild gusts. Looking forward to seeing how this develops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert, this was an excellent call: Thanks Joe. Good to hear you're not snowed in and lost internet. You must have a lot on the ground right now.

Very cool interactive map. I wish we had someone from Sky Valley, GA here-it's a golf club/resort of sorts at 3400'+ in far NE GA. I bet they did fairly well overnight and may get some more snow today thanks to their elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Here comes the cold and snow with good ratios developing rapidly in cyclonic flow , from the Missouri Bootheel, western Ky/TN. That area should start to light up and expand into most of central Tenn and northern Alabama over the next few hours. The 5H system is still diving southeast toward the northern border of Tn to southern Ky area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderhead Hawkins Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Temp is 27 here with on again off again snow showers this morning. We had a burst the began to stick a little before it let up. Im waiting on the area in western Tennessee to get down here. If it holds together we might actually get a little accumulation out of it.

Weather Czar Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Got around three inches around 4 this morning. Its about half that now after more sleet and compaction. Good call Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastonwxman Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 You have to admit folks. This ULL is looking rather interesting atm. It is actually pivoting more moisture further south than what I thought it would. Some areas in northern MS and AL are now getting what appears to be light snow. Now if it can just keep this as it begins to swing it east and northeast, I believe some of us east of the mountains (especially in NC) can get in on flurries/light snow later today. You can clearly see where that area of wrap around moisture is located. And water vapor imagery: http://www.goes.noaa...LOOPS/ecwv.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got my attention though, it would just be good to see a light flizzard . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got my attention though, it would just be good to see a light flizzard . I just looked at the nam, it has tremendous downslope over us for this event, but theres so much moisture we may get a few flakes, or they could skip us and redevelop around SC and central NC. Either way, it would be nice to see some flakes here, but I'm just going to live vicariously through the Tenn and NC obs for the upslope. The upslope kicks in right as the ULL feature is moving out tonight, so the mountains are going to get a tremendous upslope from this one, a lot more than I originally thought. Also, still like our areas snow to sleet to ZR event by Thursday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Temp hovering around 35 right now. I ended up with around 3" last night before it switched over to really, really wet snow, then sleet then light rain. It's compacted down to about 1.5" and the roads are a slushy mess. I'll get some proper measurements and photos in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Just checked the board and was right 4 inches. Still some light snow but looks to be winding down per radar. Temp is starting drop after a spike of 30.8 at about 8 this morning. Now down to 28.6. No real wind to speak of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itunis Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Atlanta's up to 44...a good bit higher than progged IIRC. Looks like they're getting some sun. Here we're at 39 and dropping fairly quickly now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
