How have you been Marty? Merry Christmas!

Hi Les, Great. I really appreciate you keeping the board alive for us snow lovers. Merry Christmas!

Hey Mike! That 1-3" is going to bust badly IMO. Glad you're here to see what is really going on!

A gorgeous radar folks!

Temp had dropped 12 degrees in an hour. 30 degrees gusty and snow, snow, snow!

Yes the snow has arrived!!!!!

42 degrees here in Williamstown, but I know it's a comin'!

I've been driving north all day, so I haven't been able to post or check in much. I'm on 75 in Chattanooga,and I'm trying to figure out if I can get through the mountains and across the Kentucky line before the change over happens. Any updated thoughts on when the freezing line might cross down here?

And so it begins!!!

29 degrees WC 19

Down to 21° an inch of snow on the ground coming down hard

Our low is now at 1000 MB over Detroit. 1004 MB Low over Eastern Virginia. We talked about the slower phasing of this system to get that further SE track that we needed. Oh 33 / 30 and snowing. It's almost Christmas! This is the best Christmas ever IMO for a snow weenie like me. It don't get any better for our area!

Now 23 with a WC of 9 here in G'ville.

You don’t want to get stuck on Jellico Mtn, I know that for sure.

Snow mixing with rain and wind picking up in Middletown.

25 degrees WC of 12 degrees. So loud outside

Jellico is bad on a beautiful sunny day. Have traveled that route at least 30 times in the past 3 1/2 years

Get a motel room somewhere, ride this one out there. You'll be getting up here well after the worst has started.

31 / 28 - Now the fun can begin! Man this is going to be an awesome storm! Already is

34 with 20 mph winds and moderate snow now in Mason

Right when it hit 32 here it started snowing!

Thanks, Les. Looks like I probably shouldn't risk it. Think I'll stop in Knoxville
