Today's headline:
Clouds slow to budge and flakes quick to fly.

How many of you saw some snowflakes today? Flurries and snow showers appeared under clouds that were slow to move under a north - northeast flow of air.

Hit LOOP after clicking this link:

https://bcaws.aviationweather.gov/satellite/plot?region=mgm&type=vis

​In fact, the sunny breaks were more common today in central Kentucky than they were in East Tennessee, as moisture pooled down from Middlesboro and the Tri-Cities.

Expect another cold night tonight:

More clouds, especially high clouds, cold, low in the lower 20s

Tuesday:
Early clouds and flurries, becoming mostly sunny, highs in the mid-30s

Tuesday night:
Starry skies, cold, lows in the lower 20s

0 Comments

 
Who's READY for the Weekend ?

Well, Tonight:
Cloudy skies, spotty rain by morning, lows in the upper 30s to around 40°


BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN THIS WEEKEND:  

10 AM to 9 PM Saturday   (Knoxville / Valley Times)

It's the best chance, not the only chance.  I suspect the rain will arrive about 2 hours faster for the Plateau and linger about 2 hours later for the Smokies.  

Saturday:
Gray skies, scattered rain showers, 80% chance, breezy, gusts around 25 mph, but higher on hilltops, highs in the lower 50s

A quarter to a third of an inch of rain is expected, on average.

Saturday night;
Plenty of clouds, evening rain showers will fade, but could end as some snow flurries or a mix, mainly for the Smokies, lows around 30°

Sunday:
Mostly sunny, colder, highs around 40°

Sunday night:
Mostly clear and colder, lows around 20°

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day:
Bright sun, few scattered clouds, still cold, highs in the mid-30s.


Normal HIGHS & LOWS this weekend:  47° and 29°
