Radarscope shows snow north of Jackson. Temps look to be between 34 and 32 to about I 40. We need @Itryatgolf70s observations in these pivotal hours. 

Snowing harder than chicken lips here in north jackson!! Half inch already. Very big flakes

Ok, @Carvers Gap @kvskelton @Icy Hot and any other Kingsport adjacent folks, what is going on here:

Almost all those pixels make this look like it is coming off of Bays Mt, but a couple of frames show some hints that it might be coming from somewhere near Carter's Valley. We've seen this band during NW flow after storms sometimes, but today is unique.

Here is a zoomed in view with counties added:

GOES 16 is so clear, I can see the point of Bays Mt there and Kingsport's urban sections around it. 

At the little swag in western Sullivan county there is a swag, for lack of a better term, in Bays Mt almost exactly where that radar echo is streaming:

That is a tiny feature, but Im wondering what is going on up there to cause that radar echo under what is almost a totally clear sky to my eyes.

I tried all the windows I could think of on GOES channel of RAMMB/CIRA page and the only imagery I could find that had something a little different was splint window difference:

Apparently that can be used to show moisture under clear skies.

Wow. That's really strange. Hard to figure out.

Just wanted to say, I love these posts about little micro features.
