Looks like nobody update for E. tn. Sorry guys.

Friday night at about 11:00 PM we had 5.5 inches. At 0130 in the am there was probably over 9-10 inches. I didn't measure that one. I was in my drawers. There was a good 4 inches on the spot I cleared at 11:00. So I figure we got about 9 inches, however, when I got up Saturday morning there was only 5 inches and the top layer you could walk on!
Aparently it turned to sleet/freezing rain in the night and it compressed the snow quite a bit.

The sun was out alot today and the roads are clear but I still need 4X4 in the driveway and sstill sled material. There is now about 2 inches on top of the frozen layer. Not good for snowmen but awesome for sledding. I got my share of sledding this weekend for sure.

We got 5 inches of snow + 1/2 inch of ice. Couldn't even sink down int the snow at all. Gonna have to replace the gutter on the back of the house due to the ice and snow pulling it away from the house.....

May wanna check the soffit, it's usually the reason the gutter pulls away due to being rotten, don't cut corners if it is, replace it. I spent a lot of time remodeling houses, the one on White Ave on UT campus was condemned, we brought it back to life, was beautiful till the college kids renting it decided to tear it up.
