INCOMING SNOW...

We continue to be in a protracted upslope snow event...while we have collected only a heavy dusting so far, looks like our 'no travel issues' card has run its course.  A rather significant pool of moisture is in KY and TN and heading our way...the advisory runs through 6pm Saturday, calling for 2-4", mainly above 3500' (blue roof house).

Per the models I follow, the poorly-performing NAM (this season) is showing 1-2", but the GFS (most accurate this season), is pushing a tad higher than earlier, now putting ACA in the 3-5" range.

Upslope snow shower accumulations are nigh impossible to predict when you get our distance from the TN border.  We can get skunked, which suits us just fine...or we can get a dumping like we had in our last 4" snow (at my house) a week and a half ago.

Looks like better chances for accumulating snow will occur for a few hours this afternoon, but the best chances by far will be overnight into the Saturday morning hours.
