John1122 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Basically the same story here as Daniel Boone, around an inch on decks and cars, less than half that managed to stay on the ground. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reason that works is because severe wx during winter indicates sharp wavelengths where the ridges and troughs really dig. Pretty cool somebody figured that out years ago, likely without a weather map within 100 miles of them. The saying goes(at least how it was shared with me) that thunder in the western North Carolina mountains during winter means snow will fall within ten days(some say 14 days). There are some other interesting "sayings" as well...if snow is on the ground for three days, it is waiting for another(snow). I don't know about the second rule...but the thunder deal is pretty interesting. I am pretty sure that the blizzard of '93 was preceded by a very severe tornado outbreak across E TN about twenty days earlier. While that doesn't follow the rule exactly(occurred three weeks later), it might be around that time that I noticed that rule might actually have some merit. But hey, congratulations on the snow!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Not sure about other areas, but we had 4 inches of snow just a couple of days after that severe weather event in late February 1993. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrgjeff Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I have heard, snow breeds more snow. Basically it says a cold weather pattern is in place so another snow falls. We've seen two in a row here. I've seen it back in Kansas. I wonder if we'll ever see it again, lol. 3 hours ago, Carvers Gap said: ...if snow is on the ground for three days, it is waiting for another(snow).

As for the thunder, it is about an amplified pattern. It can go both directions, especially in the Plains. I think here it's more the warm to cold, due to slower recovery. This time looks like a Deep South system is wasted Sun/Mon. Then next week is forecast warm, but the 6-10 day has been less reliable than usual lately. Oh yeah this is the Obs thread. Decent wind rain thunder and lightning in Chattanooga Monday evening. While sub-severe IMBY it was still a notable December thunderstorm with intermittent vivid lightning and loud thunder. Calmed down overnight. Then just before dawn the winds cranked up as the cold front crashed over the Plateau into town. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 It's been colder than I expected the last several days, maybe I hadn't been paying attention with all the talk of coming warmth and was expecting it to be warm.

John1122 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Temperatures are near normal now through 2/3rds of the month, mainly on the strength of two days that were +15-20 in the area. Without those I'm probably -1.5-2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holston_River_Rambler Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Interesting line of enhancement overnight running from the Smokies to the plateau: Any ideas on that one? Looks to me it runs almost directly E to W, starting just north of Mt Le Conte and ending at the plateau near Harriman. You can even see some subsidence north of it and reenhancement north of the subsidence. Infared kinda shows it too as some of the cloud tops cool on the leeside of the Smokies, but it doesn't look as linear here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ridge Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 It appears to move south midway through the radar loop. Given its linear nature and odd movement, my assumption is it's a mesoscale boundary of some sort. Those loops are a nice reminder of how sweet a snow shield this would be.

Holston_River_Rambler Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Fun time fog development this AM: As I was driving to Kingsport this AM, fog rolled in at Oliver Springs and ended at Strawberry Plains. No fog before Oliver Springs though. Satellite shows it hitting the plateau and I guess the dewpoints were lower?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 You know it is an interesting weather pattern when the marching band semi has to fight its way through snow in the mountains just outside of....Los Angeles. They saw snow in Arizona and in much of the mountain ranges of Southern California. Heck, downtown LA looks sort of like Salt Lake City with the snow capped peaks in the background!
