I don't want to donut off the side of the mountain. It's extremely slick because it's wet snow. My acura traction control was working overtime. It's easier to use my headlights to get a photo in the dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234snow Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Finally switched to heavy snow about an hour behind schedule. Probably will wind up with less than an inch. I’m going outside for a Jebwalk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stovepipe Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Usually MRX is like "there is a slight chance of some light drizzle" But tonight they're like: I hope they are right for folks north of 40 and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234snow Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Currently coming down in thick concrete buckets. Heaviest snow since Feb of 15. Temp down to 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 The snow is impressively heavy when you get under it. Big ol silver dollars that just dump down on you. It's over here now. Probably 3 inches fell and 1.5 stuck. It's been a long slow process but I'm now over 5 inches on the year, making it a better year than last, so I'm not going to set another record for lack of snow. But probably will set one for least snow in a winter that was below normal on temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Nice heavy dusting here now. Probably between 1/4-1/2in on grass temp 32. Dp 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BhamParker Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Really hope that the NW flow kicks in and kinda stalls the band over the mountains for a couple hours because it’s moving out quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I don't think there's going to be much in the way of flow snow tonight. So basically what fell already will probably be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runman292 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Not even a trace in South Knoxville. It stayed as a mix through the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yeah I never even saw any fatty flakes. Just a light to moderate slop. Schools may even run on time despite the temps crashing later. Still at 37 degrees here lol.

Windspeed Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Last gasp here with flurries. Really interesting on the surface temps around the region. After falling rapidly with the column, it leveled off at 32° here in TRI. Surface flow is driving down through SE KY though. It's 22° in London. Surfaces should be fun in the morning.

Expand Warmer air still hanging on in the central valley with many still at 36-37 degrees at 2am according to wunderground. This is not unlike the SREF depiction from days ago. I like the 'NAM ensembles' for short term accuracy these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Ended up with about 3/4 in which melted into 1/2 of crunchy icy concrete overnight. Just a glaze on roads. Temp is 20. It may not be the deepest snow, but it is perfect for sledding as it’s super slick. Really the best for sledding this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BhamParker Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 We got right around 2 inches at our cabin last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 North Johnson City registered a heavy dusting. South Johnson City looked to have registered a light dusting (as well as Erwin). I noticed temperatures leaving Erwin yesterday were around 55 (5:30 PM) degrees. Going through JC the temperature dropped to 51 in south JC, 49 in the heart of JC, and 47 in north JC. Quite the difference that ended up showing in the snow department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Classic warm nose special for the mid-lower Valley. Chart earlier in the thread showing cold banked north explains the sharp dividing line. On a south wind, up where the Valley orientation shifts, nowhere for the cold to go.

Windspeed Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Crazy day and never got around to posting but we finished a little over an inch of snow. Less than I thought. Appears the initial heavy rate melted into a slush. That all froze into concrete by sunrise. Still looked lovely yesterday morning. All-in-all a nice little winter event.
