Super User Nitrofreak Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 Just got an update this morning, now predictions are at 2-3 feet of white stuff for my area, sustained winds at and around 20mph with gusts possibly reaching 50mph mark... UGH !!!! Quote
lo n slo Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 WNC checking in with 2" of snow on the ground and heavy sleet falling now. So far, no freezing rain, but some icing is expected. Quote
Turtle135 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 we are expected to get 18" - 24" of the white stuff, will probably have to hike to the lake tomorrow and leave the kayak at home, I am thinking suspending jerkbait and a texas rigged tube Quote
jlperkins Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 here in Southern Ky, we started out with a 1/4 in. of ice, we now have heavy snow with 5 in, on the ground, There is a few local power outages from the ice in the trees falling on lines, It sounds weird outside the wind has picked up and all the ice in the trees is cracking and popping.

Super User Nitrofreak Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 Just now started in my area, going out now to pack all the cars we can into the dealership and we are heading home, thoughts and prayers for everyone, stay safe and warm peeps !!! Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 started here about 40 minutes ago and it is coming down pretty hard and already covering the roads. Gonna be a good one if it keeps up at this pace and for the length of time they predicted. Everyone be safe out there but i do have to admit, i wish i was in my kayak on the river right boat now....nothing beats a snowstorm on the river Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 Short vid of my ride home. Quote
mrmacwvu1 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 my local station reported that the snow would start any minute it started 2 hours ago hell we have an inch I have a question do news stations not have windows Nothing ticks me off more then when they say there is 50 percent chance of rain when i look outside and it is pouring down the rain BTW i live less than 3 miles from the news station As Lewis Black once said the greatest job in the world is the San Diego weatherman Whats it like out there today. Nice back to you. Quote

Super User buzzed bait Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 full on state of emergency here in GA..... we've accumulated nearly 1" of rain and i'm 100% serious that the governor already has declared a state of emergency.... 1 Quote
Super User F14A-B Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 I'm on the upper northern fringe of this beast. (thank God) but areas just 30 miles south of me are being hammered. Only 2" thus far, (for me) but the wind is evil. This is going to be horrific for Central Kentucky. Quote
atcoha Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 was working up in Butler, AL today. around noon I was getting in my van ready to hit the road home and it was snowing. Sleet first, then the big flakes about 5 minutes later. Air temp was 37 and damp from that storm that rolled through last night. 1 Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 23, 2016 Super User Posted January 23, 2016 It's outta here! The storm was pretty and did not cause any damage to speak off. Memphis took the necessary precautions and for the most part the city shut down. Kids had a ball and my neighborhood was invaded by snowmen! It's cold today, but lots of sunshine. I hope those of you in the storm's path will heed the warnings, stay off the roads and be safe. Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted January 24, 2016 Super User Posted January 24, 2016 Got the snow they were calling for but thank goodness we didn't get the high winds, we did get some 20+ mph but never saw the 50's, it's pretty and all but I can't wait for it to be gone. I took several pics but for some reason I'm having trouble getting them to the required posting size on my iPhone, I will post those tomorrow when I can get to a laptop. hope everyone came through with no harm and no damage.

Super User bigbill Posted January 24, 2016 Author Super User Posted January 24, 2016 A historic mcfizzle storm here it all stayed south, I'm bummed. My son relieved me of plowing today. He did it all. I'm too old. Too wreckless. Can't climb in the jeep. Quote
