Carvers Gap Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Roughly 2.75-3" of snow here in Kingsport. Nice to get out of the starting blocks for the season. Now, let's just hope it is not also the finish line. Looking forward to a good late January-February pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayCee Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 5 inches here about 6 miles east northeast of Sevierville, close to Douglas Lake (south side). Flurries still falling with blue sky above. Funny to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Let's see some pics from those of you who cashed in last night! I need to live vicariously through you. My inch is rapidly vaporizing in the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My inch is rapidly vaporizing in the sun. Yup it may not last long even in the cold; I'm also in EB. Down to a half inch, but at one point overnight we had an inch of snow. Agree the graupel / grains period was not helpful, but overall I think we did well to get anything. Might make a pilgrimage east so my kid (and I) can play in more snow. Happy for all east and north who did better than forecast. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1234snow Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 About 2 inches here. Certainly an underachiever here as most short range models were spitting out 4-6 for my location and points in NETN. Had some good returns overhead for most of the system but not much was falling. Never got above a light snow the entire time. But I will take it! I would much rather get 2 inches all snow then get mostly rain when a lot of snow was forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tellicowx1 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Someone mentioned a dry slot in the DGZ could have been the culprit....HRRR did well here, ended up with 4", close to what the model showed.Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayCee Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Sun peaks out here, but then clouds roll back in. Not much melting at the moment. Trees still covered in white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a nice added surprise as I live in an area with a lot of pine and cedar, so it was a picture postcard morning. I actually had to take a broom to my Leyland's. Their weak lower branches looked like they were about to break. Those trees aren't built to handle much ice or snow accumulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayCee Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 The Sun is having trouble staying out here. Right now dark, angry clouds are rolling over--like snow showers are trying to develop. It's nice to finally have a good snow in early January when the sun is weaker due to the low angle in the sky. This may actually stick around for a few days. Nevertheless, it will be a dim memory by next weekend when 60's arrive. Sure hope that's a short-lived blowtorch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltrip Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Picked up about 6 inches here at my house in Greene County. Congrats to all those receiving snow...good to get on the board with a good snow here in early January! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol Man Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 About 2.5" in Indian Springs...very dry and fluffy. A lot more wind last night than I thought we would have...blew snow through the screened in porch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowellVolz Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I said in the other thread I think MRX needs some credit for how they handled this. Their WSW was spot on except for the outer edge of it like where I live. 2-3" here. They went away from conservative forecasts. Good for them.

Runman292 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I got 4 inches in South Knoxville near the Knox/Blount border. I agree with Powellvolz that the WSW was the correct call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayCee Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Sun finally coming out...and staying out. Skies clearing. Snow sure brightens up the brown winter landscape. Makes me wish it would happen more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Pictures from around the TriCities region. A general 4-7 looks to have fallen. I had around 4" here in north JC. South JC and Erwin areas had the higher amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 The developer of our subdivision has a farm just down from our house. Every year when it snows he invites all the kids (and adults) to his farm to sled. He even helps the kids get to the top (it's a LONG run) by using his 4 wheeler and his time. He stayed out there for 3 hours and made run after run after run with the kids. Super nice guy and the kids (and adults) had an absolute blast..... we are blessed to live where we do.

tellicowx1 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Those who wanna see the deep snow should take a ride (4wd) up the Cheohala Skyway here in Tellico Plains. It's about 15 mins from my house to the top (5000'+).Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Ridge Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Roughly 6" fell at my apartment in South JC. My parents in Erwin have 7".
