The Euro was a double bad draw for the areas in the Central Valley of East Tennessee and NE. It shoots a big warm nose up the middle of the valley with mid to upper 30s, and it cut QPF for the same area of the warm nose. It was about .15 to .25 less qpf vs 12z.  The EPS is still a little wetter than the OP. But it's getting close to the time where the OP will likely handle things better. As I said, hopefully this is not a trend and we get a little more QPF to work with. It's pretty sad that we get 7 inches of rain in 4 days when it's warm, but can't be .5 when it's cold enough to snow.

Interesting wording on the detailed forecast from Morristown. The 1st screenshot is a blanket forecast for the Morriatown coverage area, and the 2nd screenshot is Hamilton County specific . They mention possible moderate accumulation here. Hmmm. What are they seeing? Edit to add: local NBC just said a fast mover and posted graphics showing 2.3" for Chattanooga.

LONG TERM...
(Monday Night through next Sunday)
Issued at 111 AM CST Sun Feb 16 2025

For the long term, we shift our focus to the next system that will
likely bring some accumulating snowfall to middle TN Wednesday. The
current NBM probabilities of at least 2 inches or more of snow is
40% south of I-40, and between 60-80% north of I-40. The
probability of 4 inches or more is 50-70% north of I-40. Sampling
a few model soundings from both the NAM and the GFS, temperature
profiles are well below freezing with ample moisture in the
dendritic growth zone, so as of now, this looks to be an all snow
event. As the trough exits off to the east Thursday, bitterly cold
temperatures will settle in at the surface as high pressure
builds in from the midwest. We will remain dry through the
remainder of the forecast period, but again, it will be cold.
Current high temperature forecast has the majority of middle TN
aside from the far southern counties below freezing for 48+ hours
for Wednesday-Thursday. Some slight warming will occur Saturday
and Sunday as upper level ridging builds over the Ohio River
Valley with temperatures getting back into the 40s.

Here are most of the 6z accumulation maps:

Thank you; this should be coming into better focus the next couple of days; the mets on local TV in Nashville are including the threat of a plowable snowfall in their statements this am.

Not to jinx this but I think I am in a good place for this system.
