I’ve had some close calls there over the years. Call me old but I may take 40 if I had a choice. Or be a real man and take the Cherahola Skyway.
The soundings don’t scream over-performing system here. Very dry, isothermal where it matters — but dry lower levels worry me. Dry as a bone from 900mb down. Such a cold airmass needs a heavy convective band to overcome and we may see one, but I doubt it will be widespread like the HRRR shows. Need to expect flurries, anything more is a bonus for sure.
Yeah, but that second wave of energy swinging through tomorrow afternoon and evening is what we are looking for. Temps will be colder than too.

I would say “seldom” as opposed to “almost never.” Of course, I’m 55 and I cherry pick the four times I remember. ?
For everyone of just your area?
Yeah, the RAP still shows glory for some. The big question is if it verifies.
north ? and I’m still a smidge north of the heaviest. LFG!
You don't have to speak first
What are the snow totals
Of course you’re totally kidding like when you always comment to say something negative. Can always count on you to say something when things look like they may be headed south
Take with massive grain of salt and even then I would say this is likely overdone.
Same general areas as 2013? My grandpa used to call them weather zones. And they are real.
These are also 10:1 ratios higher ratios mean more fun? Also with all this talk about dry air this dry air that ... almost every time I hear problems about dry air when the event ends up taking place dry air always seems to lose the fighting battle .. I always see us getting moist quicker than models show ... I’m not too worried either tbh from strictly a living here for 15 years and noticing the trends
Chattanooga will cash that in right now... no questions asked.
Ooh yeah... I still confused around here. Think we see off and on snow showers, but no accumulation. Like MRX keeps saying. Don't really see a mechanism for low end forecasts to bust high. That said, Temps are expected to go down to 32 by sunset tomorrow, and not get back about freezing until sometime Mid-morning Sat. And yet, lowest temp expected only around 20-22 at the airport. Can't buy a teen low even with this potent front.
441 will be closed I promise take 40 and even then he carefully it's a whole other world above 2000ft.
Learned that lesson more then once. Nearly had to go back through a frozen Maggie Valley. Going back around is no fun.
