From NWS-Morristown
East Tennessee is no longer under a FLOOD WATCH (that has been canceled by NWS-Morristown), but rather we are now under a FLASH FLOOD WATCH.   
So what's the difference?


A FLOOD WATCH means "Be Prepared."  
A Flood Watch is issued when conditions are favorable for a specific hazardous weather event to occur. A Flood Watch is issued when conditions are favorable for flooding. It does not mean flooding will occur, but it is possible.


A FLASH FLOOD WATCH means that conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.  A flash flood is a sudden violent flood that can take from minutes to hours to develop.  If you come to a closed or flooded road...turn around!  Don`t drown!



Today:
Cloudy, periods of rain, 80% chance, heaviest rain should fall in the morning, highs in the upper 50s to near 60

Tonight:
Gray skies, spotty rain showers, 20% chance, lows in the lower to mid 40s

Wednesday:
Mainly gray, few showers, 40% chance, highs in the lower 60s

Wednesday night:
Rain showers increase, 60% chance, lows in the lower to mid 50s

Thursday:
Periods of rain, mostly in the morning, 80% chance, early highs in the lower 60s and FALLING

Thursday night:
Clouds decrease, turning sharply colder, lows in the mid 20s.

Friday / Valentine's Day:
Mostly sunny, cold, highs in the lower to mid 40s

Here's how much snow fell... and how much rain is coming.

2/8/2020

1 Comment

 
“Easy Snow, Easy Go.”

Knoxville received its first 1.0 inch of snow today, officially this winter at McGhee Tyson Airport. Knoxville got 2.0 inches of snow last autumn.

Knoxville’s morning low today was 27° and had a high of 40° today.
​
Here's an easy, interactive way to determine how much snow fell today, thanks to my friends at the National Weather Service in Morristown.
Click this link and simply move your cursor over each purple dot.

BTW, 3 to 4" of RAIN with isolated 5" amounts will be possible next week. At least Sunday, tomorrow, should be mostly sunny and pleasant, after some early morning fog.

My Snow Forecast for Saturday...initially it comes up from the South
Tonight:  
Flurries & snow showers fade.  Mix of clouds and stars, colder, beware of black ice, lows around 28°

Saturday:
Mostly cloudy, rain and wet snow showers return, 40% chance.  Highs in the lower to mid 40s.  Some accumulation will be possible.  See my Snow map above.  0.5 to 1.0"+ of snow would be possible in spots, not area-wide.  If it mixes more with rain, than those numbers would be much less.  Best time frame to watch?  10 AM to 2 PM Saturday.

Saturday night:
Becoming mostly clear and cold, fog late, patchy dense and freezing, lows in the mid to upper 20s

Sunday:
Early fog, mostly sunny, pleasant, highs in the mid 50s

Sunday night:
Increasing clouds, lows in the lower 40s

Monday:
Cloudy with periods of rain developing, an 80% chance, highs in the mid 50s

Monday night:
More clouds, more showers, 80% chance, lows in the upper 40s

Tuesday:
Cloudy, periods of rain, 80% chance, highs in the upper 50s


If you combine Monday and Tuesday, the amount of rainfall that is projected to fall is around 1.50" + across East Tennessee, based on averages from today's model data.

Rainfall Data for Thursday

2/6/2020

0 Comments

 
New RAINFALL Data coming in for Thursday for Knoxville and East Tennessee

Model A...5.20"
Model B...4.12"
Model C...1.27"
3 Model Average: 3.53" of potential rain still to come with locally higher amounts.
Bottom line? Please be careful. Turn Around, Don't Drown! Beware of mud slides. Be extra careful driving at night. And when you see rising waters, seek higher ground immediately.


What's going on?
It's a SLOW-moving cold front, so rain is likely to parade over the same areas time and time again between now and Thursday evening.  Again, numbers above refer to model data, which does NOT always handle slow-moving or stalled systems well.

For thursday:  The heaviest of rain is yet to come.

Updated 11:45 AM Sunday

Punxsutawney Phil did NOT see his shadow this morning for the 20th time since 1887.  This result would suggest an early spring.  But Phil is also believed to be accurate only 39% of the time.  We'll see.  :-)

Groundhog Day / Super Bowl Sunday:
Sunshiny skies, warm breeze, SW 5-15 mph, gusts 25 to 30 mph, highs in the upper 50s to near 60°

Tonight:  
Mostly clear, mild, lows around 40°

Monday:
Mostly sunny & warm breeze, gusts to 25 mph, highs in the mid to upper 60s

Monday night:
Increasing clouds, very mild, lows near 50°

Tuesday:
Cloudy, 60% chance for rain showers, highs around 60°

Tuesday night:
More rain showers, 60% chance, milder lows in the mid 50s

Wednesday:
Cloudy, periods of rain, 80% chance, highs in the mid 60s
