BlunderStorm Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 2 minutes ago, Carvers Gap said: In terms of NE TN...again, I was surprised at how much of the storm was left on the NAM. Normally, once the event begins, models chop away very quickly areas even that were in the bullseye. I can't speak for anyone else but I believe the 3km has handled this very well for me.

NAM is still goofy, any model showing 8.1" at TYS and half that in Morristown is offs it's rocker to an extent i would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlunderStorm Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I just did another check outside. It has entirely stopped with the freezing rain. What I'm looking at out there isn't even sleet it's graupel. The snowflakes are only partially getting melted. Just one little boost that's all I need to jump start my snow totals. Also I apologize if I'm posting too much or not contributing enough to the general conversation. I'm going to limit my yammering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it can definitely lollipop places for sure. I just kind of smooth that out in my mind, and then cut a fraction off the top of whatever total is there. Back to very heavy sleet.

John1122 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 MRX made no changes to the WSW and WWA and said the commahead will come through with heavy snow bands over the morning into afternoon hours. Hope some of you guys that were getting snow can avoid much freezing rain and that the front end thump at least looked great for a while. This warm nose means business if it manages to get to you.

You can tell on the hr 6 frame that it is incorrectly handling the 925 temps for Central and Southern Valley. It has 0° line near me, but unless the temp can drop 4° in next 20 mins on the Skyway, that's not going to verify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestTennWX Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Trailing edge of precip shield leaving my area right now, ended up with somewhere around .15 in or so of freezing rain. A few areas without power but nothing major. Strangely, never really had a changeover to sleet and no snow at all here. Best of luck to all of you in the East!!

Knoxtron Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Maybe I missed this but looks like MRX added all of Blount County to the WWA (previously we weren't included here in Louisville), specifically mentions issues with the commute Monday. Heavy sleet just started in Blount County near TYS (just north) ...SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL ACROSS PARTS OF THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS AND NORTHERN TENNESSEE VALLEY TODAY... Moderate to locally heavy snow will continue across Southwest Virginia, Northeast Tennessee, and the mountains along the North Carolina border. Significant snow accumulations are expected in these areas, especially over the higher terrain. The moderate to heavy snow will taper off late this afternoon. Scattered rain and snow showers are expected again tonight and Monday, with only light additional snow accumulations.

Sadly, I won’t be able to chase today. My better half came done with a stomach bug at absolutely the worst possible time. I’m still efforting to weed out selfish impurities from my concern package. I really wanted to get in on some of that east TN snow action today. Also, I think Paul Heggen took all the exciting weather with him when he left WSMV. Until things change around here, no problem making Channel 4 a scapegoat. Edit: Apologies...this should have been in banter. My bad.

Today my name can be taken literally. Until the next snowstorm hits and it's a win here I think I'll put this as my profile picture. It's fun using garfield in my profile picture because he is so versatile in that he fits in almost any situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
