Reading 32 in Lenoir City, obviously much colder than predicted today. Can we expect temps to drop tonight and freeze all the wet roads?

Does anyone remember the storm this time last year? Before that storm, we thought we were going to see significant amounts of snow. Instead, we got a Significant amount of Freezing Rain and Ice.Knoxville got close to a half inch of ice, while some areas in the Plateau saw almost an inch.

We ended up with well over an inch from that north of Crossville. It was ugly and we had no power for a week so we had to go to Cookeville just to find a hotel, and we only found one that had a room available. It was the 1st or 2nd worst storm I've been in.

Since it's colder than expected, any chance for accumulating snow in the early morning?

There's a chance for some snow tomorrow morning, with a trace - 0.5 inch possible in the Central Valley, up to 2 inches possible in the northern counties, Plateau, and Mountains.

Which means get ready for an inch or 2 in the valley, lol. :eek:lol:

It's 35 in Athens. Is it supposed to rain all night? I have to think the roads will be horrid in the morning.

A warm front is approaching tonight from the south, so the rain won't refreeze tonight. If anything, the temps will be steadily rising through the night.

8 inches of snow = flurries

.05 to .15 of ice = .50

High of 48 today = 32 all day

You just never know which is why weather is so interesting. Looking at the radar there is actually mixed precip mixing in around the Karns area.

You should be ok. Their is some sleet still in my driveway but the roads are fine.

Puddling water and hydroplaning you need to watch for.

Aldrich says we may see some snow showers overnight....he said I was in the 4-8 inch zone yesterday..so he owes me 3.999 inches..makes me angry those Hamblen County folks got snow and we didn't they don't appreciate it or deserve it..or maybe I'm bitter because they beat us 3/4 years in high school

And between Midnight and 8 AM, SNOW SHOWERS may RETURN and cause bigger problems during the morning commute.

Lol, here's his map matching what he said. I'm like VK. Wouldn't surprise me a bit to get up and two inches on the ground as crazy as the predictions have been.

David Aldrich didn't change his map on the 11:00 news, but he said that locally higher amounts of 1-2 inches is possible in North Knox County and Southern Union County.
