Weather in Knoxville looking nasty for this weekend

[NighthawkVol]

Rain/snow in the forecast for Friday and/or Sunday.

We may be looking at a doubleheader on Sunday. Would they push a game to Monday if they can’t play Friday or Saturday? Or just cancel one?

A snipit from the Weather Channel . . . I will try to contact my son, NWS meteorologist in East Tennessee, to get his thoughts.

 

[WallyBalls]

I think its improving. There's a window tonight and things should clear out by 7 on saturday.

Temps won't be great Friday and Saturday, but we've done some great work in weather like that so far this year.

Sunday (when I’ll be there) looks fantastic. Going to pound some brewskis

 

[BigDave]

I just heard back from my son, the meteorologist . . . in summary, not good for Friday with rain showers during the evening and cold through Saturday. Sunday will begin warming up . . .

I'll trade y'all my weather for tomorrow for yours, we need the rain and it's gonna be sunny and 76 or so. All bets are off after that, not gonna hit 40 for the next 5 days after that lol

….brrrrr

exactly how it felt.

about 20 yrs ago, late June, we were on the summit of Big Red Mtn (11,000 ft elevation) in Philmont NM and this storm came up on us, it started lightning and dropping these soft snowy balls. I literally thought this is how it ends for me. There was about 2 or 3 inches of this stuff called "graupel" on the groud after about 15 minutes or so. Anyways I am ok with just about any kind of precipitation after that.

Hiked Philmont back in 1975. Took a winter campout trip up to Warriors Passage the previous winter. Sunny and 60 at the trailhead. Six inches of snow by the time we got to the top. Glad we were equipped.

When Vittelo said “Make it Nasty” maybe he was referring to the weather?
