Well starting to become less concerned about dry slot issues south of 81 and more of mixing issues. Heavy sleet now in CC and looks like a pretty good slug will slide right up along those counties south of 81. question is what type of precip will it be.

You can look at it like that, if your interest is only whether it snows or not … or you can look at it as the interest and intrigue of the atmosphere and what it does.

This has never been advertised as anything other than a borderline and disorganized storm system. And it remains so.

I hate these type storms…….before the tech game, the talk was, 2 to 4 inches possible…WWA should be moving east..etc.etc…..I get hom from watching tech game, and now….we may get some sleet…….. wdbj 7 just showed maybe a “coating” of snow..I mean come on!!! I really don’t understand why anybody (including me) gets caught up in any of the hype, before it starts starts fallin! Don’t know anything more than we knew 72 hours ago……good night all..and I can promise u one thing…… the is 100% of a chance of something happening….or not happening…..ta….da….! uggghhhh! Lol

Smyth and Tazewell counties are Blacksburg office forecast area, counties to west and south are Morristown, Tenn., forecast area. Appears to be a slight difference in opinion there, or perhaps slightly different tendencies on when to issue advisories.
