Hvward Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Hopefully it will make it down into the valley floors. It's convective looking which will cause it to pulse down just as fast as it pulses up. Check out the heavy dbz cell north of Nashville. Yeah that cell is really firing. Looks to be some banding taking place on the Knoxville radar and another one firing near McMinnville. This might be worthing staying up for to see how it pans out.

Met1985 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 Good catch guys looks like some nice banding taken place over in TN. The models I think are not really picking up on this energy very well. The NWS is covering all basis though having a chance of snow from tonight through Sunday here. I think a WWA could be issued for the mountain counties just to keep the public alert for these pieces of energy coming down. That band in TN looks to be gaining strength. Might surprise a few people tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hvward Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 It looks to be filling in nicely now. Maybe we can get a band 100 miles wide or so to form. Meso's both north and south of Nashville currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meso's both north and south of Nashville currently. Ya that's what I was talking about this morning. So much energy out West rotating down. The models are not really picking up on it. Just one of those things were you watch the radar and look outside. Temp here is down to 24 degrees with snow still on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCSU2005 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I'm thinking about taking my wife and kids to the mountains this weekend to see a few flakes and maybe do some sledding. If we were on a west facing slope about 4,000 feet up in Zionville do you think we'd see much from these clippers coming through? Thanks in advance for any advice?

Hvward Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Some banding taking place with the moisture at the Tenn. border, should have some flakes in the area within the next couple of hours. Looks like a nice dusting, maybe more given the time of day its arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 Light snow falling here now . Nice! We have snow falling here with some surfaces turning white. The wind is really ripping though. Also just to rant a bit. I am really tired of these crappy little systems that run up through here from the south. I mean can we not get a decent NW flow anymore? Also this upcoming cold snap I could care less about. Just give me a foot of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoJoe Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Nothing on radar but it's pouring snow here. Roads are snow covered all the way from Burnsville up 19W to Flag Pond. Thought I'd never get home. It's 19.2 with a wicked wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
