Carvers Gap Posted March 14, 2018 Author Share Posted March 14, 2018 TRI has recorded a trace or more of snowfall during four of the last seven days, likely will be five of the last eight when today's totals are added. I am not sure how much the airport received after midnight. Seems like the late-night Kingsport snow slid south of the airport. Update: The east side of town has only a trace. Crazy. West side had up to 2” of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlunderStorm Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Here are my pictures for today. I spotted some deer in the distance and got a picture of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted March 14, 2018 Author Share Posted March 14, 2018 Certainly not exact since those are only three hour totals(had some snow already on raised surfaces before the burst), but a good graphic as to the wide differences in snow accumulations over the Tri-Cities. There were places on East Stone Drive that had very little while areas west of I-26 saw up to two inches of snow. Great example of how March systems hold surprises and tend to over perform in almost unpredictable places within a given local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 MRX map. In true thunderstorm fashion, some people really hit it big from the convective nature of the snow showers. I ended up with 2.1 inches. Bringing my season total up to 8.5 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 And one last note that tells you how crazy a difference elevation makes and how different the world is above 6000 feet. Newfound Gap is at 5000 feet. Their 24 hour temp range is 30-12 and they have a trace of snow on the ground. LeConte at 6500 feet was 19-6 for temps with 9 inches of snow on the ground.

John1122 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We may or may not get these kind of scenes again for the next few months, at least not without elevation. But it was beautiful in the Campbell County mountains this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncheelfan Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I got some really good pictures of Grandfather Mountain on my little drive yesterday. Beautiful scenery up that way. Sent from my SCH-I535PP using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
