tnweathernut Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Boone’s Creek on the Jonesborough side we have 8 inches. Congrats to all those that scored some snow. Hopefully the next one will be much more widespread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlunderStorm Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Well looks like the temperatures to support snow are about shot. I've got a mix of light snow and drizzle at 33. Thankfully it's only down from here so maybe I see things shift back. Looks like I'm locked into the comma as it pivots as I was hoping and there seems to be a heavier wave of snow forming in Scott county. I would say accumulations have topped out at 2.4. though I'm not sure if that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Hot Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Wrap around is here. Although radar shows rain, it is moderate snow and 33 in the Heights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 Pure rain here. Above 3000ft on Cross Mountain where the NAM kept dropping 28-32 inches, it appears that about half that actually fell. While no one lives there, there was some tough travel across it this morning, including a wrecked plow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Unlikely to amount to much but once better returns arrived it's snowing big quarter to half dollar sized flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 What a day...a big snowstorm and a big Vols come back from nine down with 6:15 left today to defeat #1 Gonzaga. Tennesssee’s biggest wins in football and basketball this year I listened to on the radio. Why? Snow. We listened to the Auburn game in YNP while roads were closed in Yellowstone National Park due to a winter storm. Today, our cable went out due to the storm I presume. Great times. Somehow my snow hobby and my Tennessee hobby have managed to intersect twice already this year! What are the odds? We did get our cable back and watched(found the replay) the Admiral put the Vols on his back with four threes in the final minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellicoWx Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Down to 35° here, with a heavy mist, seems to be a lot f low level moisture trapped still against the mtns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlunderStorm Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Currently in what would appear to be Diego's last hurrah here. It's falling heavily. I'm rooting for this to go on for as long as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Heavy snow here as well, it had been heavy drizzle after some earlier snow showers for a good while but the system is finally generating enough lift to get moisture into the snow growth zone. I also have to say I've rarely seen snow or anything coming in from Middlesboro Kentucky. There's some 2800-3000ish peaks inbetween us, hopefully they squeeze out some of that moisture.

John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Quite a blossoming of the radar. You don't often see virtually the entire half of the state just blossom with returns over one radar cycle. Looks like some stout bands set up over the area. Don't know if it's rain or snow falling but looks really heavy around North Knox, Anderson, Southern Campbell, Morgan and Union County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it'd be really coming down just south of me. Are you under heavy returns at all? It may be because they are close to the radar and wet snow/mix is highly reflective, but Jefferson and Grainger are under some 35dbz bands.

The 06z NAM has this hanging around eastern areas until about 15z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windspeed Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Had some big flakes coming down for about 30 minutes. Light stuff at the moment. But this back end feature is getting interesting. If banding sets up just right, we could get 2-3 inches of additional accumulation before noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 I've managed to add 3/4ths of an inch with moderate snow still falling, getting to 32 has helped a lot in the accumulation dept. I'd guess the south end of Campbelll to Claiborne county and maybe North Knox, Anderson, Union to Jeff County added an inch or more if it was all snow for them. I know MRX said the rain/snow line was between Knox and Morristown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Loudon Co reported snow on I-75 in patches at 4:41 am. So that band must have gotten going pretty well for them. Knox had been reporting rain/snow at Tys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Looks like it's beginning to shrink and pull out. Days ago when the Euro was just hammering the area with yard stick totals part of the reason was that this thing hung around for 20 hours pulling in moisture off the Atlantic.
