I have a rental property here in Nashville you can move into. Rent will be determined by how much snow you bring with you.

Re: January 24-25th Clipper/Ice Ice Baby
The slower solution from the GFS and Euro today would mean less or no ice for the nashville area proper.
You guys in east tennessee for whatever reason are staying much colder during the day.

Re: January 24-25th Clipper/Ice Ice Baby
Could be due to cold air being trapped in the valley. If that's the case, I don't know how we would get any or much snow at all out of this one. Even, in the Northern Valley. I don't know that much about E TN winter weather, though, as I'm still learning-only my second winter here, and last year was not even close to this one.
Also, may be in relation to the HP moving out of New England. It's effects may be stronger for a longer time here, due to the fact that we are further E.

NWS to issue WSW. Per WBIR. Does not say Valley or Mountians, so I'm guessing its both. Watch is for ice and snow.

Vanster the elevation you live at it will most likely be both.Good to see you on here.Vanster67 wrote:I am seeing alot about freezing rain is this just going to be an ice event for us on the plateau? How bout some snow ole man winter.
Re: January 24-25th Clipper/Ice Ice Baby
If, and I say IF Chatty gets in on some ice for a few hours, the valley areas may do better than say Signal or Lookout Mtns due to the WAA causing a temperature inversion where the mountains stay warmer and valley locations MIGHT hang on with a little trapped cold air.

I know that is alot of reading above, but I thought you guys would like to have it all here. Pretty interesting wording to me! Especially the "significant icing and heavy snowfall" wording.

Andy, your post is excellent. It brings an update to the thread regarding the info, so it is very much appreciated, especially to members/guests who do not bother to look at the NWS website for their region. So thanks again!
I must say that I have not been following this system much at all. With joining a workout/health gym with my cousin and going there every night, to schoolwork and a job, I have not had time to pay much attention to the system at hand. However, it looks like this system is going to be borderline, as with all systems of this nature, and as with the system we had just last week. Keep up-to-date with us, and with your local Mets, and with your region's NWS for the very latest regarding the potential of this system.

There shouldn't be any downsloping issues for anybody west of the mountains with a southwest flow aloft. Maybe in the valley there could be some downsloping but it shouldn't be notable. There isn't that much QPF to work with and the Gulf will likely not be tapped. Any further south trend with this vort max and I would expect precip amounts to increase some, but that could pull in more warm air aloft. This is a tight rope situation as is just about every event we go through. Latest NAM has .50-.75 for Nashville east.

Re: January 24-25th Clipper/Ice Ice Baby
I've not had time to look at models at all today. As of this morning the Euro was showing 2-4 inches of snow North of 40 as 850s were cooperating. The NAM and GFS were showing major ice, especially South. At one point during what it was showing on the snowfall maps as heavy snow over Southern Tennessee the sounding showed 800-850 temps in the low 40s with surface temps in the upper 20s.

You guys in east tennessee for whatever reason are staying much colder during the day.
In East TN low level winds would be coming out of the northeast which will help to lock in the cold air longer. The precip needs to come quicker for Nashville on Friday morning and that would help with more wintry precip. I think from Knoxville on up to the north/northeast should stay all snow with minimal mixing. Further south and west this could be a very bad ice/sleet storm, not good at all.

Re: January 24-25th Clipper/Ice Ice Baby
Snow and ice are back in the forecast for East Tennessee, and our Friday could be a very messy one!
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch for most of the area, starting late Thursday night into Friday evening.
Chief Meteorologist Todd Howell is watching this system closely, and as is always the case in East Tennessee, the forecast could change, but here's what he is expecting as of Wednesday afternoon.
In the overnight hours Thursday into Friday, snow and sleet could start changing to freezing rain, creating dangerous driving conditions for the morning commute. When this could happen depends on where you live, and the temperature:
For the southern valley and southern plateau (McMinn, Monroe, Loudon, Rhea, Meigs, Roane, Cumberland), 1/2 inch of ice accumulation is possible, starting between 5-7 am.
For the central valley, rest of the plateau, mountains (Knox, Sevier, Blount, Anderson, Scott, Campbell, Morgan, Fentress, Union), up to 1/2 inch of ice accumulation is possible, starting between 7-9 am.
For upper East Tennessee (Hamblen, Greene, Grainger, Jefferson, Claiborne, Cocke, Hancock, Hawkins), 2-4 inches of snow is possible starting Friday morning.
This forecast, and whether you get ice or snow where you live, is heavily dependent on where the "freezing line" is, and that could change before Friday and even during the day.
The freezing rain and snow could continue throughout the day on Friday, ending in more snow showers. All the precipitation is expected to be out of the area by 8:00 pm on Friday.

The NE wind will be at the surface. The winds above 850 are from the SW.

This is not looking very good for my area, southern Monroe Co. With the heaviest precip being modeled over the area, this could be a very devastating ice storm here.
