Snow and Ice In The Knoxville Area

^Glad you all are fine. Does not look like we will get any relief this weekend with cold temps starting tonight.

Here in Vonore we only got 2-3" most of which is gone already. There was ice under it though so pretty slick.
Another front is moving in and temp's are likely to plunge over the next 8 hours and into tomorrow.
We decided not to go to Florida this winter and now I am regretting that decision.

It's been amazing to see the good that has occurred in the midst of this awful storm. There is a local Jeep group that usually does stuff for the children at Christmas has come to the rescue of patients in need of transport. They are called Jingle Jeepers.

It's also been amazing to see just how beautiful the area is blanketed in snow.

It can warm up now though. LOL.

Glad you are all right. Stay warm, sir.

Yes, it can get that way in Knoxville, and this is why I chose not to live there. The people were fantastic, the roads not so much. But in October one year I was treated to freezing rain, a little hail AND black snow. This 'ol boy from the Ms Gulf Coast can't handle that sort of weather.
