Rain is done. Sun is out. 😲

No watches or warnings here.

No watches or warnings here.

It’s been quiet here as well. No wind, rain, or anything.

I’m hoping this thing just blows right on past us in Knoxville.

I thought it would, but it looks like it’s finally starting to build to the west of us.

Same here. I'm finally off work, so now I can start tracking the storms.

I'm currently keeping my eye on the supercell on the Alabama/TN border. It could hit Chattanooga later on.

 

[rocktopper16]

Expect more building! I got a cool breeze here with clouds moving north.

 

[rocktopper16]

Confirmed tornado in that cell VK.

 

[rocktopper16]

Man. You can watch that low develop over Nashville. These are gonna be nasty storms.

 

[rocktopper16]

Strong line forming. Looks like a hook near Cookeville

 

[bigdaddy]

Feels so nice outside right now, I hoping this isn’t the proverbial calm before the storm

 

[Vol knight]

I hope this doesn't come to pass. 18z hi-resolution NAM:

There is some good news that I have. If you live north of interstate 40, you're probably not going to see any severe storms. I can't rule it out completely, but the chances are much lower now.

That looks sickening

The line seems to be weakening substantially

Edit: Tornado Watch has been lifted for all of Tennessee.

Reorganizing. Transferring energy

It appears that we will not be getting a watch issued. Also, they have downgraded the enhanced risk in Chattanooga to slight risk. Too soon to say definitely, but we may have dodged a bullet.

Yep. Most of the really bad weather is to the SW in AL moving E into GA.

 

[bigdaddy]

So bizarre, for those smarter then me how did the valley make this miss us? Did the cool air get trapped or something?

My guess is that the convection south of us in Alabama and Georgia is preventing the airmass from becoming too unstable. Looking at the Cape right now, the instability is weak.
