Hey, their are some real nuts on the internet so I don't want to say exactly.  Let's just say about 1000 ft above kingsport! So really close to Gate City VA...

Hope yall don't mind me participating in a TN weather board but i m 2 minutes from the county line.

If I pack the car up in the morning and take off that's where I am headed. I'm looking for places to camp or to take shelter and do some hiking.

Hey Snowseek, I live here in the southern end of Kingsport close to Colonial Heights. MRX latest forecast says we could 4-8 inches, I believe. And that is for Kingsport, not a higher location like where you are. ::snowman::

Good to see a local on here! ::applause::

We have this crazy dude ;) on this forum who lives all the way over in Germany so I think you'll be okay.

Kingsport is a wreck...no pun intended...I can't imagine traffic in the higher elevations. I think we have about 4 inches possibly.  ::snowman::

After all was said and done I did not get my 8 inches here outside of Gate City VA---(just about 5 mins from Kingsport)---, It turned over to sleet after about 4.5 inches and then sleeted for an hour or so and then transitioned back to snow for maybe an additional inch.  So I ended up with about 6 solid inches.

You bet I'll take it.  The cold temps have kept the snow around and everyone is in the Christmas cheer even tho we might not have a white christmas, we will have snow on the ground for most of the days leading up to it.  With our track record that is more then anyone of us can ask for!

I hate the whole state didn't get hammered like we did but I think "ours" is coming.  We just can't keep missing on so many of these wonderful patterns.

I talked to at least 3 people today who said they aren't expected to get power at least until the 25th of this month. Not good, not good.

Yeap I lost power for 24 hrs.  I think some of the power companies got a little lax because we hadn't had a big snowstorm in so long.  Nobody must of been cutting trees for a long time before this because there were power lines down everywhere.
