MM’s Hourly Forecast

5-Day Forecast

MM says….Much of this system’s rain shrs stayed north and south of the plateau, unfortunately. We could have used some rain, even though amounts always looked very light with this system (something would have been better than nothing). Now, we’re on the cold side of the cold front and different weak disturbances will offer some more light precip chances through Friday evening. With colder temps, some of that precip will be in the form of snow flakes.

MM’s Weather Worries

MM’s Wx Analysis

A very winter-like storm system is impacting the eastern half of the U.S. with cold temps and even some wintry precip. Winter weather advisories are in effect for many of the higher peaks of the southern Appalachians, including the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. This storm system isn’t expected to cause big impacts anywhere, but it is a good first taste of many more winter-like systems to come over the next several months.

The percentage of the land area of the contiguous U.S. covered in snow is at 2%. Yesterday it was also 2%. Tomorrow’s map may get to show some snow on top of the Smoky Mountains!

Plenty of showers to our north and plenty of showers to our south. We’re in the middle with just about nothing. Crazy weather. ha

Drought Conditions

This map updates each Thursday.

Drought improved across the state, but not by a lot. Last week, 98% of the state was in drought. This week that number has fallen to 91%. The best news is that “exceptional drought (D4)” almost went completely away. “Extreme drought (D3)” dropped from a coverage of 29% last week to a coverage of only 9% this week. The “Abnormally Dry” to “Severe Drought” categories barely changed from last week. Drought conditions are forecast to worsen over the next week.

Last week’s map can be seen below, for comparison.
