Keith Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 TDOT Smartway cams shows wrecks on Rockwood Mountain and near the 75/40 split area. Neal Rd is still a solid coat of ice and has probably gotten worse tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuCoVaWx Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 I've had snow showing up on radar for a few hours, some look like heavier showers, but I see nothing out of my window? It was flurrying at the onset but nothing since. What would cause this? Sorry if this is an amateur question lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillbilly Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Interstates to the north, south and west of Knoxville are in bad shape... Is there anything TDOT could have done ahead of it to be ready for it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnEastTN Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Wow it is really bad out there I swear I already have about a tenth of an inch of glaze which is what they were calling for as the upper limit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think you can get some more snow.The inverted trough that helped with the warm nose,the cold front is stationary,we could get a few flakes here maybe but seems to me the higher elevations could get something,wont be much but it seems to me you could squeeze maybe a tenth or so before it done.That map is a hour old 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse from KY Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 In Northern Bell County, we've had some light snow the last while. It's tapered off now, though. Could we see another surge before the night is over? Current temp: 32F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 19, 2024 Author Share Posted January 19, 2024 Approaching mm134. At least it's not freezing rain any more. They can't clear the interstate so tdot can't salt. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe there's issues with getting moisture to the dgz because we shift back to drizzle when it's not coming down hard. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Boone Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Steady lt to moderate snow here now. Had a pretty good period of freezing rain that iced everything over. Now have a coating of snow on that. Changed back over to snow about 45 minutes ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattPetrulli Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Went outside, got a thin glaze of ice on the car. Probably will keep me home tomorrow. Pretty impressed with how widespread the freezing rain is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavier rates got through it and cooled that column. Apparently the waa stopped so, that midlayer is cooling with the mixing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Moderate to heavy sleet, zr, and sn falling IMBY. Roads are a mess. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silas Lang Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Disappointed to say that I have had a couple of brief showers of freezing rain. It wasn't a downpour, but the drops were heavy and it was a moderate rainfall. I expected drizzle or maybe light rain briefly, but this is more than I anticipated. I have had drizzle in between the moderate showers. I heard what sounded like a brief period of sleet. It's nasty out. I have no idea how to measure ice, but it is a much thicker than a light glaze. Dog slipped going out. It has consistently been 31, but I am sure the ground is much colder. A cool little element from this weather is due to some melting from sun in cold temps and the freezing rain, I have some rather sick looking icicles hanging off the house. I swear one of them is closing in on 3 feet. Gonna have to measure tomorrow. Anyway, stay safe y'all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
