Mesoscale Discussion 0244
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0133 AM CST Sat Mar 12 2022
Areas affected...Portions of southern and central Appalachians and
vicinity
Concerning...Heavy snow=20
Valid 120733Z - 121330Z
SUMMARY...Heavy snow is possible within the southern and central
Appalachians and vicinity. 1-2 inches per hour snowfall is possible
in eastern Tennessee and Kentucky. Rates of 1-1.5 inches per hour
will continue to move northeastward into West Virginia and
western/central Pennsylvania towards early morning.
DISCUSSION...Temperatures have been dropping quickly across eastern
Tennessee and Kentucky over the past 1-2 hours as cold air advection
and diabatic cooling have increased. Correlation coefficient data
from KJKL and KMRX show a transition zone from rain to snow roughly
located in the Cumberland Plateau vicinity. This transition zone has
quickly shifted east over the last hour. The combination of
mid-level ascent and upslope flow will support 1-2 inch snowfall
rates along the western slopes into the Appalachians. The greatest
snowfall rates will begin to taper off by 4-6 AM EST.
Farther north, snowfall is increasing across West Virginia into
western Pennsylvania. Several observations sites are reporting
moderate to heavy snow that is has been primarily driven by 850-700
mb frontogentic lift. As the trough moves east and intensifies,
deep-layer ascent will increase in these areas into early Saturday
morning. The potential for 1-1.5 inch snowfall rates will increase
accordingly during the next several hours.
