Plugin your Time Machine disk to get all the snapshots moved over (or delete the local snapshots).

Also spend some time excluding directories that maybe don’t need to be included in snapshots like ~/Downloads or ~/Library/Mail

@Bryan I know, been doing this for a long time. Just today Time Machine went haywire to the tune of 135G and I'm sure it would have kept going. After restarting it, now it happily backs up to the external disk and my local disk continues to have 135G free space.
