BlunderStorm Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 This morning was the first frost of the season for me. Did any of you guys get to freezing? Here the temperature fell to 31F under clear skies. If Sunday does pan out I might send a pic or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for here it's currently 49 with some sprinkling. Every few minutes a gust or two comes through around 15 to 20 mph with sustained around 10 then it mellows down to 5. Update 1: Scratch that now I'm getting some 20+ gusts. I wonder what the mountain tops are gusting to. Update 2: Cold front has arrived now it's 45 and falling fast. According to the weather station the feels like is 38. Update 3: As of 11:30 it's 43 and the rapid fall in temperatures has slowed down. Winds are still sustained in the teens and it's sprinkling again. Ahh, I just love giving observations during cold fronts. Very few people are crazy enough to stand outside in a chilly breeze near midnight just for the heck of it. Welp time to head back in and warm up. Update 4: After having gone ages without realizing it and feeling dumb because of it, I was an hour behind on my observations because I never set the time to daylight savings in March on my weather station. 12:52 A.M.- 8mph sustained winds from the northeast, 42F with 66% humidity, under partly cloudy skies.

BlunderStorm Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 The low this morning was 35. No flakes to report for this event. It's certainly a beautiful morning and it seems like the trees become noticeably more colorful everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a welcome sight for sure. It’s warming up pretty quick though today. I think the high tomorrow is 70 and then we return back to highs in the low 60’s for the rest of the week going forward.

BlunderStorm Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Tonight marks the first flurries of the season. Currently 35F with no accumulation on any surfaces. So it looks like I'll record my first trace! EDIT: Wow, I reached 500 posts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chattownsnow Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I’m hiking on lookout mountain right now and it’s oficially sleeting! First frozen of the year for me! Totally was not expecting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnweathernut Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Certainly feels like a raw December day today. Steady rain falling here in Erwin and a temperature in the upper 30's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steady rain falling here in Erwin and a temperature in the upper 30's. Yeah, I love this weather. What is crazy, it doesn't feel that cold to me. I think what happened is I dealt with such low temps during the AM in Yellowstone(a few weeks ago), that it messed up my seasonal "clock." In other words, when we hit single digits there during October(the guides on my fly rod were freezing up), it acclimated me to winter weather. By March I will be tired of it...but today it is good! Just a classic El Nino wx event...cold and nasty. Glad we have a head start of sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holston_River_Rambler Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I saw something I haven't seen in a long time today. Fog forming on the slopes of hillsides with no rain falling in the mid-late afternoon. I see this all the time when there is rain falling, but the last rain fell about 7 hours before I saw it. I think it must have been the cold air trying to rush in with ground temps that are still relatively mild. Man, the wind was stout and cold off of the plateau into Roane County this PM.

Holston_River_Rambler Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Water levels are high on the plateau. After seeing some Crossville snow (29 and windy), I rambled through Grassy Cove (Grassy Swamp today) to Upper Piney Falls: https://imgur.com/gallery/86E9HqL Hard to appreciate the force of the water without the sound: https://youtu.be/vBng9sYoiVM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math/Met Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 A wind event is underway for parts of East TN. Camp Creek has already gusted to around 63mph, and the 00z Nam has the LLJ strengthening over the next few hours. Even though the 850 mb wind direction is south/southwest, winds closer to the surface are more of a cross barrier flow. 925mb wind direction is typically a better indication of potential downslope winds for this area. This shouldn’t be a major event, but a few hours of strong gusts are possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Steady but very light snow falling. Don't expect it to amount to anything at all. It's the kind where you have to run your wipers every minute or so to clear off the misty look it gets from melting against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlunderStorm Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 A brief burst of moderate snow under the radar caught me off guard and has left the ground with a dusting. Right now it's reverted back to pretty much what John described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
