Carvers Gap Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I have snow here now. Light...but snow. The sleet cooled the air column it appears. John, you still have snow on the northern Plateau? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1234snow Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Not feeling great about my chances slightly north of gate city, starting as a light snow/sleet mix...sleet's going to kill my snow I am afraid, but it's pretty It has been all snow here south of Gate City next to the state line. North of Gate City should be fine. Snow is picking up but it is fine flakes. 21 with a DP of 14/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Back to moderate snow now. When the precip rates are high, it snows, when they lighten it's all sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnmetalhead Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Speaking of micro climates... I was sitting around 32 all morning, and about 30 minutes ago a strong southerly breeze kicked in, and knocked me all the way up to 38 in about 15 minutes. I'm on a small ridge, only at about 1050 ft, but I'm very prone to WAA. Still awaiting precip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low elevations nearest the mountain get more SW flow, and less protection from the Plateau acting as a dam. However after the heavier precip makes it further east your dewpoint should kick your temp back down quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windspeed Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Looks like some heavy stuff moving over I-75 north of Knoxville. Interested to know if that is sleet or flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 University of Tennessee closing at noon. Should have closed, will be a lot of problems for anyone leaving after lunch. Hope it works out for them though. Still just mostly cloudy here in Erwin TN. I have talked to buddies well north of Nashville, within 20 miles the TN KY state line and they are now reporting all freezing rain. They had sleet. Not a good sign for those downstream.

Carvers Gap Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Winds NNE, like John1122 state...light sleet w/ slow precip rates...snow w/ stronger. When the full storm moves in, should be all snow here. I think TRI will be ok w/ snow. This system looks a bit south to me which would incline me to believe the cold is holding its own.
