ACA is in a Winter Weather Advisory from midnight tonight through 10am Sunday, with the better 'likely' period of snow to fall in the predawn hours. Again, fast moving snow showers moving in from the NW will accumulate mostly NW of here along the TN border, but if the incoming direction is just right, we could see an inch of snow here. The GFS model has been odd model out when it disagrees with the NAM, the two I watch closely. GFS shows a dusting to 1", and the NAM is going 1"-2". My best idea is what I stated earlier, the 1-1.5" range.
There are still plenty of icy patches on the shaded sections of Apple Creek Road, and the double hairpins are still slippery...any snow we do get should be driveable with the right vehicle and technique, but if we do get that inch anyone in a 2WD vehicle had better travel with significant care early on, if at all.
Temps do warm some through Monday, but heavens is the cold going to lock in again next week starting Tuesday, with lows in the lower teens and possibly single digits a couple of nights next week. A couple of reinforcing shots of arctic air will keep our heatpumps, furnaces, and fireplaces earning their keep for a good many days.
