Runman292 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Don't have a ruler, but i would guess a little over 1 inch so far in Oak Ridge. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Finely flaked snow, coming down hard, wind blown, parking lots getting white. I'm showing 31 degrees on the weather station. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Nasty Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 The concrete must be much cooler than the asphalt. All our driveway and sidewalks are covered but the road is just wet. 32.4°.We seem to be in a lull. Very small flakes and not coming down hard at all. It went from fatties to almost nothing. I really hope it kicks back up. I don't trust the radar returns as it can show really heavy rain and snow here when actual ground reports are light.Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Snow here has let up significantly. Dry air working northward. Hopefully, it works back and we get an inch or two before the back side slides through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricaneguy Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Definitely feeling that valley dry air. Nothing yet this way since the heavy rain moved out. Need to pick up in the next hour if we expect to hit 5-6 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawnEastTN Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Just saw lightning and nice long rumble. This storm has been pretty awesome so far! Little over 2"Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to pick up in the next hour if we expect to hit 5-6 inches Yeah, I think that is out the window for TRI. 1-2" is reasonable for TRI at this point. Looks like a mesoscale low rotated up the spine of the Apps and into TRI. I thought it was downslope, but it originated south and rotated over the mountains. Maybe we get some wrap around here. It was almost like being under the eye of a hurricane. It will likely cut precip totals here significantly. Hopefully I am wrong. Glad to see the Knoxville folks getting some great thunder snow though!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricaneguy Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 And first flakes have arrived. Good size ones too 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Nasty Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 The radar looks impressive at my house but I can confirm you have to squint to even see a small flake in the lights. It came down hard for 1 hour and then went "POOF". Had a report of a wreck near our exit and 75 N is bad in Ooltewah. I can't confirm that, just going by reports.Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Just drove to Exit 20. It was snowing so hard on white oak mtn I could barely see. There was a minor wreck on 75 near VW, but the roads were mostly good. Starting to slush up a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Radar is filling in back to the SE. we may have a shot at 3”. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Light to moderate snow has resumed here. Ground is turning white. Not the huge rates of TYS, but probably the best we have seen all winter. There is a mix of fine flakes and medium size flakes. There is almost no wind. edit: temp is 33.1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 2+ inch per hour rates still rolling. Wind has now died down except for a few gusts occasionally. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk I don't know what to make of that on the radar but not falling. I've seen the opposite but never seen that in the middle of a storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 If I can get 4 more hours of this, that 15 inch total the GFS tossed out at 0z is going to be darn close. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricaneguy Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Been snowing steady for about 30 mins and the ground is turning white. If it keeps this up through 8am I’d say it will be out best snow since Christmas Day 2020 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sick man. You’re going to get crushed. I would’ve never made it up that way with how late I had to leave Atlanta. I’m enjoying the hell out of it in a Walmart parking lot in Athens! About 2 inches here I would estimate. Wind still howling! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
