Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Morristown TN
341 PM EST Fri Dec 7 2018
.SHORT TERM...(Tonight and Saturday)...
Mostly cloudy to overcast skies will continue to fill in and lower
in height as we move into the weekend. Precipitation will begin to
move into the Chattanooga area tonight and continue to spread
northeastward across the Valley. We will likely see mostly rain in
the Valley locations early tomorrow, but temperatures around the
800-900 mb range will be near freezing... This means we could see
a wintry mix of rain, sleet, and possibly snow in some Valley
locations for a brief period. Any winter precipitation would be
very light and accumulation should be minimal (if any occur).
Higher up in the mountains temperatures should remain low enough
that any precipitation falls in the form of mainly snow. In the
higher terrain we could see some accumulations beginning overnight
into tomorrow morning.
During the daytime hours tomorrow, temperatures will warm up into
the upper 30's in the Valley, but the mountainous areas will stay
closer to freezing, leading to more winter weather through most
of the day.
.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)...
Difficult forecast this afternoon in regard to potential wintry
precipitation this weekend and early next week. Different Model
solutions and Model inconsistency creates a low confidence forecast.
Lets begin...
For Saturday night...upper trough moves into the southern
Appalachians. The NAM has the strongest jet dynamic forcing over the
forecast area with the GFS showing the best dynamics over western
North Caroline. These differences are a key why the vertical
temperature profile (850mb temperatures) are much cooler for the NAM
than the GFS, thus producing more snowfall, especially in the valley.
After coordination with WPC and surrounding WFOs, will trend with
highest confidence and amounts over the far eastern Tennessee
Mountains where we will upgrade to a winter storm warning. For the
southwest Virginia, northeast Tennessee and Plateau, will
continue with near warning criteria snowfall amounts up to 4-5
inches, but confidence is too low to upgrade and will continue a
watch there.
For the central valley, a trace to 2 inches, higher ridges, are
expected.
for Sunday, wintry mix will continue in the morning, but diminishes
in the afternoon to mainly drizzle, except snow showers/flurries
higher elevations.
For Sunday night and Monday, again differences in the models in how
much precipitation will be around for the southern valley and
southwest North Carolina with upper trough axis. Rain/snow showers
or flurries is expected. Will need to watch this potential closer
later for later this weekend.
For Tuesday and Wednesday, ridging surface and aloft will produce
dry conditions with a warm-up.
For Wednesday night and Thursday, another fast moving system moves
across the area. Warm enough for all rain. Potential mountain wave
high winds event.
For Friday, a stronger system moves through with greater chances of
a mountain wave event with widespread showers.
