John1122 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 All the heavy convection to the south of us seems to have disrupted the moisture feed. Precip shield is dying out so much it may not do much more than flurry or sprinkle the rest of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bob Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Went out for lunch at 11:30 and there were some wet flakes mixed in with light rain....now it is just a depressing 37 and light rain.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Half dollars dropping out there right now, but the moisture is just about gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Only a few small flakes and graupel falling here right now. I agree, the moisture is rapidly departing the area. Think MRX will have to significantly cut back on pops for tonight, unless something changes drastically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yep, the flow never turned sw to ne and it appears that helped with temps but killed moisture transport into the area.

John1122 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Big, fat beautiful flakes flying down right now. With the impending warm up this may be the last time it snows this year, though it's pretty early for that in my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the impending warm up this may be the last time it snows this year, though it's pretty early for that in my area. Would like to hear some reports from Union Co. Some heavy returns set up there for a good hour. I caught the bottom of that burst of moisture and it was coming down pretty good for 10 min or so in Halls.

John1122 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I have about 1/3rd of an inch, had some heavy bursts. Stuck all over trees, laurel and leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Had a brief burst of snow earlier this evening. If the qpf had been a bit beefier.... This is why I watch spring storms(jogging to our south) that have just a hint of cold to work with. Really, we have had very little precip. If there had been more, we would have had accumulation.

John1122 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Down to 29 here as of now. Probably heading for 26 or 27. Kinda surprised with the freeze warnings, the freeze program probably shouldn't start until much later in the season. Normal low is 33 for my area this time of year with the average last freeze being in late April or very early May with the average last frost May 10th or so.

John1122 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 27 yesterday morning and this morning as well. Should slow things up in the blooming department. Not remotely the last frost/freeze of the season if the GFS is to be believed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Frost and freeze program did start a little early this year. I heard some agricultural interests requested it after things got going during the early warmth. A few of the WFOs coordinated on starting up the program. Valley is greening up so we need to avoid hard freezes, but I see more frost and maybe a few light freezes at lower elevations. Hope blossoms are slower at higher elevations because it will freeze some more up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayCee Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Thankfully, this morning's freeze was a bust here. Woke up to 43. One more night to go. Hoping tonight won't be as cold as predicted either. I did notice that they've changed my earlier predicted low of 28 tonight to 30. Every degree helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice that they've changed my earlier predicted low of 28 tonight to 30. Every degree helps. When I checked the SREF yesterday it said "what freeze?" Not a single member near 32, mean over 40 for TYS. Glad it turned out to be correct. Hopefully tonight is warmer than NWS is predicting as well like you said.

Glad it turned out to be correct. Hopefully tonight is warmer than NWS is predicting as well like you said. Think the wind and clouds saved us last night. Hard freeze warning for TRI tonight. Really hope those winds keep going as long as possible. If they go calm early enough tonight, we are in trouble at TRI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Freeze well under way here. currently at 28 degrees, figure I'll bottom around 22-23 since my dp is 19. Looks like mid to upper 30s across the central and southern valley so far. You guys may not get the blistering our trees will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
