tnweathernut Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 At my home in north Johnson City the 2 inches we had the prior night and yesterday morning was down to about 3/4" to 1" this morning after another "skiff" of snow was added overnight. Never quite got into any snow shower activity. My office in Erwin (15 miles south) however, was a different story. It was snowing this morning, again. Heavily for a while with temperatures hovering around 15. I took these pictures during some of the heavier bursts. Very odd to see so much here and so little in Johnson City just a few minutes away. Being a valley location, Erwin has done REALLY well with these pieces of energy pushing through. As I type this, I see the sun making an appearance. Congrats to those that saw snow, especially those that over-performed in middle Tennessee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayCee Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I guess our radars can't see everything. Ever since the heavy snow moved out, I've had a very fine sleet, rain, or snow mix falling all day. It's more like a mist than anything else. It's been a good Friday at the homestead. Days like this make me glad to be a weather geek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Days like this make me glad to be a weather geek. Same here. Very thick clouds, almost like fog. Still getting flurries. It has been relatively dark here as well due to the clouds. Not a whole lot of sunlight. It's felt like evening all afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 The snow covered mountains were friggin beautiful tonight from the perspective of my back deck at sunset. LeConte, Clingmans, and Thunderhead were on fire! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Mrx forecast low for my area is 17, currently 16. The warmer models had been predicting lows in the upper 10s. The GGEM had been predicting low 10s. It may be closer on the thermal profile than other models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWonderland Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 26 degrees here in Oak Ridge. Light sleet/snow mixture starting failing about 40 minutes ago. Some areas on the road have a dusting. Just got in from a 5 mile walk the dog. Nice walk but dang it's cold!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Has felt like spring during the last four days. Looks like another four days of spring-like temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayCee Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Had 0.91" of rain overnight. Another good soaking. Creeks are swollen, but no flooding seen besides the typical low spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Rained pretty hard all night, but there's a lot of thunder with this batch of heavy rain. Especially to my south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyhound Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 My wife works off Cedar Bluff in Knoxville. Around 8:15am the storm passed over them and she said trees and limbs are everywhere and had some stop signs ripped off also. One of her coworkers husband (who works at the same complex) was driving into work and said he saw a small funnel cloud form over that area as well.

Knoxtron Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Watched that storm roll thru Hardin Valley Area. Saw three trees go down into Beaver Creek within seconds of each other, very intense wind and rain. Accurite weather station recorded 25mph wind, but I've noticed it has a hard time with gusts so not sure on wind speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Storms this morning probably got some extra wind from momentum transfer off those intense 850/700 mb winds. While the inversion restricted CAPE, the same inversion focused momentum down to surface. MD #139 talked about it but they did not box East Tenn. Thank the inversion for impressive claps of thunder too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet there are some impressive BloomSky time-lapse recordings for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1234snow Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Heavy snow falling at 40 degrees. It's practically a white out. That's crazy! Wasn't expecting that this early. 45 here and the winds are howling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Got a few wet flakes mixed with the rain showers here. Temp has dropped from 60 this morning to 38 now. Very windy still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnEastTN Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yeah same here just now a few flakes mixing in with light rain. Think they are busting on forecast lows tonight. My NWS forecast low is 36, i'm currently at 37. Interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnEastTN Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Just looking at area weather stations there are a lot of 37-39 temps out there plateau right around 32. Unless they expect temps to stabilize around current temps for the night then they have really busted on overnight lows for most of the valley.

bearman Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Getting a few light flakes in West Knoxville. Surprised it is happening so early in the evening. Maybe someone will get a surprise. There is some interesting looking radar returns in middle TN. Maybe they can make it to East TN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
