Best chance we’ve had all day for accumulation!

We talked about that with the last storm. It’s one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen and it’s been going on for years. There’s no telling how many Mets MRX has went through but the jinks lives on.

My dad and I have been joking about that for over 30 years.  It truly is amazing.  Do you have much up there in Powell?  I was on Emory Rd around lunchtime and it was dumping!

...Patchy Areas of Black Ice Overnight...

Periods of snow showers are expected to continue to impact
portions of the central and northern valley of East Tennessee. A
dusting to 1 inch of snow is possible over the next couple of
hours, north of I-40. With temperatures plummeting in the upper
teens to 20s, any wet spots on roads will turn to patches of ice.
This will create slippery conditions in some spots, especially on
bridges and untreated secondary roads.

Use caution if traveling overnight and Friday morning. Slow down
and allow extra time to reach your destination, and do not assume
that a well traveled roadway will be free of snow or black ice.

Pushing an inch now. Roads are icy with a coating of snow on them. We got so many heavy bursts of snow but too much of a break between them. Had this system been late afternoon, it would look a lot different north of 40.

Like everyone else in the eastern valley, I thought it was over as well before it began, but now we have a fairly heavy dusting on cars and grass. Right before this band hit, there was a couple big gusts of wind for me as well! Right on cue MRX with the SWS lol!

Looks beautiful, John!

It's nice. The nw snow is smaller flakes and it's peppering down out there now. Looks like I might squeeze out 5 inches. It's a shame that the valley got warm nosed.  Looks like some areas around 40 and north have a shot for some more backside showers. I assume our mid state guys had a good day.

I have numerous friends from Nashville to Gallatin, Hendersonville, and Westmoreland.  A lot of them scored a 6-8" event and a couple have indicated they received almost 9"... It's been a LONG time since this widespread a snowstorm occurred for the midstate.  Happy for them.
