NOW A WINTER STORM WARNING...

Our Winter Storm Watch is now a Warning as the timeframe approaches.  The Warning is in effect from 7am Sunday through 7am Monday. Read details HERE.

Temps will be marginal Sunday morning through mid-day, so it may be wet snow, rain, sleet, all of which does not bode well for the crashing cold Sunday night into Monday morning.  Unlike our last snow that was grippy with no ice to speak of, our slushy leftover stuff will become ice in this upcoming event, so I expect more travel troubles from this one.

No doubt areas near the TN border will get dumped on, with decreasing amounts toward ACA.  The valleys should see accumulating snow, but probably just in the 1-2" category, with 3-5" possible above 3500', which is the upper ACA.  The Smokies, Max Patch, etc., could well see 6-9".

I'm here on the mountain for this one, so I'll update as needed.  Assuming this all comes to pass, it will be most helpful once again to stay off the roads until the plow can get up here and salt behind it at some point Monday.  Again, being a holiday, that should help.
