Weather UPDATE

[Guest Jamie]

They won't even try to make it in?

If what they make in a day isn't well more than their insurance deductible, I can't say I blame them.

I always like going in when everybody chickened out. Place was quiet and I could get more work done than ususal. And the jams. They were LOUD!

[Guest cjr]

I enjoy doing the jobs other guys won't do, just to prove it can be done.

[Guest jackdm3]

That's what I'm saying!

I got like 3/16th's of an inch, in Blountville. The road in front of the house is clear.

Weather guy in Jackson, TN reported at 6 p.m. that the National Weather Service said there was 9 inches on the ground in J. town. Still looking at an additional 1 to 3 inches later tonight. Then a low of 7 degrees Saturday night.

I've done enough jobs others won't do... Now, I decide whether or not it's worth doing first.

Depends on how one defines 'worth doing'. 'Treacherous' conditions, mud, ice, snow, etc? I call that a fun challenge. Then again, I may just not know any better. Besides, without a challenge I get bored, and that's no fun.

[Guest jackdm3]

For me, I take great satisfaction from doing things that others are afraid of. I frequently take ill-advised risks that usually end in someone saying somethins like, "Are you out of your motherf..... mind!?" That's when I start to feel a little better. And I'm still here to tell the tale. It's kind of like when you have an incessant itch where you keep scratching until you go over the edge/top into euphoria.

Seemed like it was snowing, mixed with a little sleet. I just got home from work. As I thought, the roads are covered in snow (Harding Pl and Nolensville Rd). I didn't have any problems getting home. Hell, I did 35ish the entire ride home. I passed a lot of people going too slow for the hills. I seen a lot of Leo's out and about. I'm actually surprised that they didn't try and pull me over for some thing stupid, like driving to fast for conditions LOL.

Satellite went out at about 2300 due to freezing rain. Crap, no more tube. And I'm not going out there with a hair dryer.

Hope the power stays on.......

That is really strange because now it looks like Im in Canada,Rockies or the great lakes.If it continues like this I can see 6" in 2 hours

[Luckyforward]

[Guest Bluemax]

Have been seeing sleet and light flurries in Sevier County since 6:00, I just took my dogs out and now have snowflakes the size of silver dollars..This may turn out to be for real after all.

[lowbud]

[Guest jackdm3]

[Guest tnmale46]

bout 3 in. and snowing pretty heavy right now.

[Guest Sgt. Joe]

I have 5" in the yard and it has been stopped for hours, just went out and my weight is only leaving 2-3" tracks.....this can not be good if it dont get above freezing tomorrow or at least very soon.

Dont need no stinking 5" of ice, nor 1" for that matter.

[Guest bkelm18]

Parking lot here is completely white. Not sure on road conditions. I might try to make it into work.

[FUJIMO]

Anyone have a report in the knoxville area ?

I am up toward morristown and the back roads are just slush but nothing major. Plus it's just raining here now and channel 10's site shows 34 degrees.

[Guest Jamie]

Got up and took the dogs out at 6:00am... was greeted by 5 or 6 inches of snow on the ground and more still falling... which is strange 'cause I checked the radar before I went out and it showed all the crap as having moved off of us.

It's sad when you can't even trust weather radar to get it right.
