WishingForWarmWeather Posted Thursday at 04:21 AM Share Posted Thursday at 04:21 AM It’s randomly been snowing for the last hour, and radar looks like it will be going for another hour or so longer. Light snow, maybe 3/4 inch new but the roads are all covered again and it’s incredibly slick. Wasn’t expecting this, so it’s strange. School is canceled again tomorrow, but it was since about 10am today. -Clarksville, 17° actual, 4° real, 12° DP, 81% humidity. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the high ratio powder that evaporates as soon as a sunbeam hits it but it's fun while it's happening. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a county wide basically and it ran from NW Indiana all the way to here. Wow that’s awesome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted Thursday at 06:51 AM Share Posted Thursday at 06:51 AM 18 degrees, no returns showing up on radar here but it's started snowing. Looks like a few heavier bands heading this way if they hold together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted Thursday at 08:49 AM Share Posted Thursday at 08:49 AM Not sure how long it'll last but it's snowing as hard as it was last night at the peak of things. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knoxtron Posted Thursday at 10:54 AM Share Posted Thursday at 10:54 AM Wasn't expecting to wake up to moderate snowfall! I'm not sure how much more we have received 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol Man Posted Thursday at 11:17 AM Share Posted Thursday at 11:17 AM Finally got a little decent snow out of this event in Kingsport. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed33 Posted Thursday at 12:22 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:22 PM Wow! Woke up and the road is covered. Went out and measured 1/2in on it and my snowboard had 3/4in on it but looks like the wind has been blowing it some. From about 5-6 this morning it was ripping! Some other landscape timbers behind the house where the wind does not blow I measured close to 2in which includes yesterday (it did not hardly melt) and overnight bringing the total to right at 2in for the 2 days! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuCoVaWx Posted Thursday at 12:59 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:59 PM I've got 5" total since yesterday, it's still coming down pretty good out there. Might squeeze another inch or two before it's done. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chattownsnow Posted Thursday at 01:01 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:01 PM Woke up to a nice little dusting and snowing moderately well. Almost measurable actually. starting driving to work and no one else had anything. Up on missionary ridge in Chattanooga might have made the difference lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Flash* Posted Thursday at 01:02 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:02 PM A fresh inch overnight (taken on top of my van which I cleared off yesterday). Totally unexpected. Got to think verification odds were under 1% for my location (news outlets had flurries passing north of here towards the plateau but that was it). Apparently the lake-effect nature of the squalls have had a more southerly orientation. Total storm accumulation now sits at 3.7”. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountainguy97 Posted Thursday at 01:04 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 01:04 PM It's ripping pretty good as far as NW events are concerned. Probably .5 or .75 inch per hour rates currently. It's 17 here and that NW flow is squeezing out every drop of moisture in the lower levels. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted Thursday at 01:07 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:07 PM Actually getting flow snow to accumulate down here in some areas this morning. The band orientation is almost due north to south which is limiting the downsloping that usually kills this variety of snow down here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlunderStorm Posted Thursday at 01:15 PM Share Posted Thursday at 01:15 PM Overnight we've gone from little more than a trace of snow to 2 inches and still climbing in JC. Roads with the exception of main thoroughfares have gone white but the plows are starting to catch-up. I have no morning update for Honaker but as of midnight 1.8 inches had accumulated on the deck so I imagine things are looking fluffy back in SWVA to say the least. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math/Met Posted Thursday at 02:19 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:19 PM You can tell on radar that low level instability has increased over the past couple of hours. More distinct bands. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math/Met Posted Thursday at 02:33 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:33 PM Currently the heaviest snow of the event under one of those bands. Bigger flakes too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach B Posted Thursday at 02:38 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:38 PM I had just under an inch this morning in southern middle TN. Some of the fluffiest snow I've seen. 2.8" total for the combined event. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowellVolz Posted Thursday at 02:38 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:38 PM For the first time in a long time I’m lucky enough to have a 2 mile wide streamer set up over me. The one going through Luttrell is 40 miles long. It’s almost a white out when you get under one of these. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwagner88 Posted Thursday at 03:30 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:30 PM This is bordering on the most snow I've ever seen from NW flow here. Granted that isn't saying much, but there is a solid dusting. Usually it's just flurries. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted Thursday at 03:37 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:37 PM We received 2" more of snow overnight for a total of 3". Wind chills are 5F right now. The much anticipated northwest flow event actually was led off by a strong band of heavy snow. It did not disappoint IMBY. I got up this morning and watched it for a bit. This image is of the initial line of snow as it began to move through TRI earlier today. We probably ended up 3.5 total...1.5 yesterday plus the 2 overnight. I have 3" of snow right now on my usual measuring spots. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8283 El Nino Baby Posted Thursday at 03:43 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:43 PM Approaching 3 inches here on the southern plateau since midnight and it is still snowing heavily. What is crazy is radar has showed nada the entire time, so must be a radar hole. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Boone Posted Thursday at 03:45 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:45 PM Picked up an inch and a quarter of new snow overnight. Total of 4.5 inches. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
