ShawnEastTN Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Coming down at a rapid clip here, but flakes aren't very big. Think its a product of being further north and dry air still saturating. Though it is coming down at an impressive rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnmetalhead Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Heavy snow here, the heaviest I have seen all winter. Temperature is down to 30, and I've got to be getting close to 2 inches of new accumulation. I received close to 4 inches yesterday, and with not a lot of melting today, this could potentially end up being the most snow cover I have had in a longgg time. I hope all you guys up north bust on the high side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyjmayo Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Finally getting going pretty good here in Kingston. I think we may have started out with a snow/sleet mix...when I stepped outside a little while ago it was awfully noisy for just snow. Coming down at a good clip now and the flakes are getting bigger (no monster flakes yet). A light dusting so far on the ground. Temp down to 31.
