Check out some of the Memphis interstate cameras when you get a chance, roads are turning into an ice rink as we speak. I-40 Is a mess right now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Icicles add effect, eh? And no, I didn't add those. LOL. https://www.weatherbug.com/traffic-cam/memphis-tn-38111 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking at weather underground obs for Smyrna, looks like freezing temps are right at the I-65 corridor. You all have an ESE wind. Theirs is from the northwest. If your wind switches and comes out of the west or north....that might be telling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMZ8990 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Ice storm warnings now up for a large portion of central Arkansas as well as the Dallas area and surrounding counties in Texas. All of West Tennessee under the warning now, looks like they moved the warnings 2 counties eastward into middle Tennessee also 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I did notice by the looks of the radar it does go way back into TX (Deep into the heart of TX, as they say) also it appears the precip around Memphis has more of an easterly, slight NE movement for the time. Meaning more areas of N MS will likey get involved this time and of course middle TN. Looks like it’s about to be knocking on the door Of the western plateau-there is kind of a strange finger that has developed east in Rutherford Co and extending east. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballknox Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Any chance the cold air continues to move eastward to get the TN valley/ Knoxville area in on the action? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. Even if temps do get below freezing, it would barely get there, and for a short period of time at that. With warm ground temps, I don't think it would really be eventful regardless. This is a West and Middle TN event. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowellVolz Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Any chance the cold air continues to move eastward to get the TN valley/ Knoxville area in on the action? Here’s a couple of pictures that show what a difference a couple of degrees makes. These two pictures taken minutes apart. The top one was 29 degrees in South Memphis, the bottom picture was in North Memphis at 26 degrees. . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Looks like it’s moving right along. On RadarScope it looks like it’s about to be at John’s house soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew70 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Temp here in Smyrna went up 1-2 degrees. Might escape wo any ice issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew70 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 It appears the freezing line has pushed as far east & south as it going to. I65 west to NW seems to be the line. Temp remains steady here at 33. Schools should have waited to close. I guess they wanted to use a snow day since they have used none of the 12 they are allowed. I wish they would take a week of snow days & add to fall break here. Make it a 2 week fall break. They don’t need many some days anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knoxtron Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Currently 30° on the plateau between Chatt and Crossville and lightly raining. Hit freezing last night around 2am but appears the ground/surfaces are to warm for anything. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at Wunderground temp maps earlier and saw it was a bit cooler there so I was wondering how you had fared. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 It is early in west TN! I did see a post on FB that Rutherford Co bridges and overpasses are very slick and should be avoided. Interstate interchange there is a sheet of ice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuCoVaWx Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Got a bit more than I expected. This may very well be the most we've received here this season. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm close to mm 30 on I-65. Got about .1" of glaze on elevated surfaces here. Nothing on the roads best I can tell. Temp bottomed out at 29. Currently holding at 30. Curious to see how temps recover today and if there is some chance of a little more tomorrow morning. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roads are pretty bad in west Tn, especially the back roads. My road is essentially a block of ice. As my dad would say, “it’s slicker than owl crap out there”.. lol 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holston_River_Rambler Posted February 2, 2023 Author Share Posted February 2, 2023 Some pretty enhanced echoes over middle TN. Is that just heavy rain or freezing rain? Looks like snow is just over the TN/VA border too: If I could this would be a "try Leconte" sort of a morning just see how things are up above 5000 feet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holston_River_Rambler Posted February 2, 2023 Author Share Posted February 2, 2023 Correlation coefficient also shows that there might be some mixed precip pretty close to the ground in the enhanced echoes just west of Knoxville: I'm under some of those higher echoes in souther Morgan county and it is just rain for me, but I would be interested to see what its like under the highest red echoes. Must be a heck of a warm nose for it to be this cold at the surface with those rates and still be rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
