John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 50 percent heavy sleet here, 50 percent snow. Amazing that this is the 3rd heavy sleet event here this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWonderland Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Heavy rain falling in Oak Ridge with temp steady at 36. Not cooling down as expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bob Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 One of our plants northwest of Bowling Green is reporting 18-22". We have also heard from a coworker in Jackson, TN that has 9.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Temp is in free fall here now. Down 4 degrees in the last hour. 25 with snow/sleet. It should make the Central Valley soon, but the back edge of the precip is moving pretty fast now too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Heavy rain falling in Oak Ridge with temp steady at 36. Not cooling down as expected. The RAP showed this happening last night. Us in the valley are going to rain it out for a bit longer while the freezing line hangs out on the plateau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I swear if not for the 750mb warm nose I'd be well over 30 inches of snow on the year. Pinging the windows like mad right now. If we can get to full on snow soon there's probably enough moisture upstream to squeeze out 2 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Like Shawn said, this heavier line of rain is dropping the temps. I'm down to 33 with moderate rain. It should change over within the hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Friend in Gallatin reporting 3 inches. Usually the Nashville shaft reaches Gallatin to its northeast. Can't really say 3 inches busted the curse, but it's a good amount for them. Jax, I swear man.....what is it going to take to get you some quality snow numbers? I am amazed at the lack of snow there in the last 10-20 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnEastTN Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'm at 33.3 dewpoint just dropped to 31. Rockwood is now below 32. The freezing line is dropping off the plateau. I'm 12 miles roughly as the crow flies from the edge of the cumberland escarpment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The sleet is gone! Transitioned over to very heavy snow now. Half dollar flakes coming down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stovepipe Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Based on Hi-Res NAM/RAP/HRRR the central valley will have about a 5 hour period of potential fun. RAP a tad more, HRRR a tad less. To me, the biggest concern might be the existing water freezing on the roads. There is a river running down my road currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'm shocked that it's not at least changed to sleet over the western Valley of East TN yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234snow Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 34 degrees and rain still. All area rivers (Holston, Clinch, Powell) are above flood stage and rising. Congrats Jax, but I wished you would of got more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnEastTN Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'm shocked that it's not at least changed to sleet over the western Valley of East TN yet. I can report as of just now checking sleet mixed with rain here. 33.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Looks like the mountains have changed to sleet or snow here. Can't really say which. Still mid 30's in the valley. Can't see getting much more than a few backside sleet/snow showers. Temps are dropping much more slowly now. The local schools used their last built in snow day today, so hopefully winter is done after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silas Lang Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Based on Hi-Res NAM/RAP/HRRR the central valley will have about a 5 hour period of potential fun. RAP a tad more, HRRR a tad less. To me, the biggest concern might be the existing water freezing on the roads. There is a river running down my road currently. Yeah, agreed. Lots of ponding occurring on roads and paved surfaces here. Going to be a mess regardless of how much frozen actually falls from the sky once the cold air hits.

Jed33 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Wow the Rap has to be factoring in sleet and freezing rain no way we see that much. Wow if we did though lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Looks like the whole central is getting a ton of sleet based on radar reflectivity. If it's not, that's darn heavy rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
