Weather UPDATE

[TripleDigitRide]

I cannot believe this started at 12 and now I. Can't hardly get home. Stupid weather.

A co-worker left Nashville - headed home - just before noon, and he just got to the Manchester exit. That's nearly 4 hours to get about 60 miles.

Here's North Jackson at 1530ish today. There was nothing on the ground when I went to bed at 01:30ish and sleet at 0600...

Memphis, started with freezing rain about 0900. Now, ice on the ground and rain coming down at 1550. As soon as it gets dark, ice skating rink! I'm staying home.

My co-worker finally made it from Nashville to his home in Manchester. Over 4 1/2 hours. He says they have 4-5 inches of snow so far.

Wow, glad I marked off from work then. I work at the RR in Nashville and figured if I did happen to get there by 1430, I wouldn't make it home tonight. Glad I made the right call on that one.

ETA: 4" inches on the ground, starting to sleet in Eagleville.

The roof tops are solid white, you can still see the grass and the snow is just like dust.

[Shug]

Got 4 to 4 1/2 inches in McMinn Co. Turning into ice now

[Guest Sgt. Joe]

Update Jackson:

After near an hour of snowball sized stuff coming down it has returned to normal flakes but is still coming although not as intense. Flakes are also starting to feel like they are turning to sleet.

Front yard in now solid 5'' while back is closer to 6.

Radar looks as if bulk of storm has begun moving more east than north and may well miss most of the middle area of TN and even some of the East end.

It also shows plenty more Precip. heading my way, but all should be gone soon as I see nothing behind it.

My driveway, about an hour ago:

Yes, that's the road down there at the bottom of the hill, covered up.

Now that the sun has set and temps have dropped, the road is now covered.

We are currently seeing a mixture of snow and sleet.

[Guest jsjracing]

Just now from my front porch in North Knoxville. About an inch on the railing and as you can see the streets as of now are clear.

[Guest Ditchdigger]

4 Inches here now. Still snowing

So you're saying the police need to put out a BOLO for a chubby blond middle-aged knee-wacker? On ice skates?

Strange town you live in.... :D

[brooksjr]

stopped snowing here by 2pm and turned to sleeet/rain mix. mostly rain now but will get ugly when the temps fall. had maybe 1" of snow at my house. when my wife left work in tullahoma at 1:30(15 miles away) she said there was 4"-5" on the ground.

Took this at 1836 here in Clevegas.

This is taken on the back porch table. Not a true measurement, since it sits really close to the house and the house blocks a lot of it.

And here's a picture from 3 minutes ago
