fountainguy97 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Temp surprisingly down to 28 already. Let’s see what we can scrape together over the next 12hrs or so. Hrrr has a pretty good second wave tmrw morning as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Looks like the edge of the first middle TN band is moving onto the western edge of the plateau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocker0 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Feels like it could be a bust here...or was the first wave that came through not really supposed to amount to anything and it's mostly whats in West Tennessee thats expected to add up?

Looks like it started breaking up. Wasn't sure if it was the Plateau affecting radar or the band dying out. The main snow per Morristown here is just before daybreak until noonish.

Wintersnow888 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 It's 29 degrees here, the ground seems semi- frozen ( as much as possible since it got dark) , if we get anything it should pile up pretty quickly without too much melting....hope the next bands don't fall apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olhausen Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Can report snow in White House but unfortunately temp went up from 32.2 to 33.6 even with snow falling. Two different gages so I know it’s not busted. Snow is accumulating though. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Light snow started here. Hoping to squeeze out an inch or so. 31 degrees after getting down to 28 briefly. So at least the ground is frozen if we can get anything to fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 It's odd, the Western plateau is just eating it up it looks like. It's like its hitting a wall there. Don't know if its an angle thing or what. It just won't move past Fentress down to Cumberland Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 After reading the AFD from MRX the mid-levels of the atmosphere aren't saturated here so that's why it looks like the precip is falling apart. Looks like another hour or two before it gets here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Finally started snowing here again. Still at 31, hope to get an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wintersnow888 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I don't have access to a good radar picture, but it's still snowing at a good clip , medium and small flakes mixed. Approaching two inches, I hope you get this in your neck of the woods! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to bed about 3.5 hours ago and it hadn't started here yet so I'm surprised since when I went to bed it seemed it was all west of Nashville. Hopefully it keeps up and we all get some snow that'll last more than a day or so with the colder temps ahead. This is already the best winter in three or four years at least here.

John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Finally started in earnest here about 30 minutes ago. Temp actually went from 31 to 32 when the snow picked up. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearman Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Radar looks beautiful at my house with not a flake falling. Correction there is now what looks like dadruff falling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed33 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Light snow currently falling. Looks like the rooftops are whitening up a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Temp went back down to 31, approximately 1/2 inch has fallen. Nickel sized flakes coming down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holston_River_Rambler Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 MRX for SW VA: Another interesting thing to watch for this afteroon will be the slight chance for thunder snow; this is only for our southwest VA counties though. The SPC has this area under general thunder during the afternoon due to the steep low-to mid-level lapse rates and 100 J/kg SBCAPE that will be in place. This may allow for enough updraft buoyancy to generate a lighting discharge. Though the chances are slim it isn`t out of the question. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Up to quarters falling now. Probably 1/2, mile visibility. Heaviest snow so far. Temp went back up 1 degree when it started snowing hard. I've never seen temps fall when it's snowing less and rise when it gets harder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Have a solid dusting on rooftops, cars, and grass. Temp is doing a similar thing here and I wonder if it may be due to the dewpoint increasing as moisture moves in. That in turn is increasing the temperature. Then when the moisture moves out, the dewpoint falls back a degree and temp goes down. For instance, when it was snowing a few min ago, I was at 30 degrees with a dp between 29/30. Now that it’s stopped, I’m at 29 dp 28. Just a thought 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
