Heavy Snow in Unicoi, Tennessee

Three miles south of Unicoi at Sam's Gap, a three inch snowfall accumulation was reported.

Sub-freezing air spilled south through the Eastern United States for a two day period of mainly orographic snowfall as several shorter wavelength systems dropped southeast out of the Northern Plains and Great Lakes. The snow accumulated to a depth of three to five inches on average however, some greater snowfall totals occurred primarily in the highest terrain across Southwest Virginia and in the Smoky Mountains.
