zippity Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Madison, AL ended up with about four inches of snow. Temp was 33F until well after midnight, paerhaps even later, so the snow buildup never got too deep. Another degree or two warmer and we would have ended up with eight inches of snow the way it was coming down. Some people were losing power in areas with more snow, so I am very happy that the temps stayed warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silas Lang Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just had snow avalanche off my roof in Johnson City. Was crazy loud and dumped a huge pile the car. This morning band has been a nice sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltslugs Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 NWS reports officially 11 inches in Ringgold, GA. That has to be close to its all time record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol Man Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Wow...going out with a bang....pretty hard snow right now in Kingsport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liltwilite2011 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 7.5 inches in West Knoxville, Karns area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windspeed Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Wow...going out with a bang....pretty hard snow right now in Kingsport. Yeah, this band has given me an additional 2-1/2" since 10am. I'm hoping it can squeeze out another 1-3/4" to reach 10" for the total, but if it quits right now, I'm perfectly content with 8-1/4" for the final total. Can't be greedy! Great finale to an awesome winter storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugnuts Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Measured exactly 7 inches on my deck.Just a few miles up the road i measured about 11 inches in Letcher Co..AEP is reporting a little over 5000 without power.The RAP done very well on this one for our area imo..

Windspeed Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just very light flurries now. I don't think we'll get much more in the way of accumulations, so I took a final measurement. I'm 8 miles south of Bristol, near the south fork of the Holston River, in Sullivan County. 8-1/4 inches was my average around the house (deck, vehicles, ground). Here's a few photos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Surprisingly large temperature differences around the area. Crossville and Knoxville are 33 and 32 respectively. Middlesboro is also 33. I am sitting at 21 degrees right now. Oak Ridge is 26. I guess it must be deeper snow cover. I still have 4 inches on the ground. I guess Oak Ridge has some too since they got 7-9 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Down to 20, hopefully it clouds up quickly this morning and holds temps down as much as possible today. Would love to see snow fall on top of snow on the ground that I have. If it's not sunny this afternoon I should be able to keep the snow cover. The 3-4 on the ground now is frozen rock solid due to it's high moisture content and the melting in the sun yesterday, combined with the frigid temps tonight.

kvskelton Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 21 and clear in Kingsport. Drive in to work was a bit dicey. Main roads clear for the most part but side roads have widespread snow and ice, especially outside the city. Going to be interesting to see if we hit the forecast high temp of 44 today...

John1122 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Rain has started here, we're at 37 degrees. Which is much lower than every surrounding reporting station. MRX is still all in for this one, JKL backed way off though. We'll see. 2500 feet or so often seems to be the dividing line here when I see MRX saying 3500 in the Smokies. There won't by any accumulation issues here like they speak of in the AFD, if it snows, it will be falling on top of snow, as only the places that get all day sun have melted down to ground, mostly everything is still well covered by several inches of snow. I made a video on my way home that I'm uploading now, by my high speed internet is slower than most (no cable here), so it'll be a bit before it uploads.

John1122 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Probably going to be another clipper bust for MRX barring something very odd going down. It's been Bizzaro world for them, whatever they say will happen, almost the opposite does. I can't see anyone getting more than 1/2 inch of snow at this point outside the highest peaks of the Smokies where it may be snowing already.

Blue Ridge Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I awoke to a soft rain, heavy melting, and the realization that as the clipper giveth, the clipper taketh away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I have a light dusting of fresh snow, a far cry from the 2-4 MRX was forecasting. Which I never saw any model really putting out more than 1-2 at most outside the Smokies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol Man Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Temp dropped from 35 to 29 in the last 90 minutes...just a tad of flurries right now. Looks like a snow shower in SE KY moving slightly southeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silas Lang Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I've been watching the radar as well. Looks like a better chance for snow than last night anyway. Probably wont be much, but I'll gladly take what I can get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabbycat Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Nice surprise. Moderate snowfall right now & cars and driveways are covered and most of the grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reb Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 WOW...WBIR just said 1-2"....seemed like they mumbled it under their breath as last words of their 10pm broadcast. radar looks great, everything getting covered with a nice line setting up right on top of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 30 minutes ago WBIR: Don't expect any accumulation from this. 15 minutes ago WBIR: Expect 1-2 inches from this. LOL the weekend shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
