Usually the strong phases systems the models show early...end up happening. Just a matter of where. Maybe in 5 or 6 days we'll know. Happy birthday! Hope it's a good one and that Union gets a couple of 6-10 inch storms over the next couple months. Next week is as good of a time as any. |

Elevated surfaces freezing up in Alton...thinking patchy black ice may be a concern again after dark.

So it's snowing all around St Louis. And I always thought mchafin was a looney. Heat island and low elevation is real... Elevation makes a difference. In House Springs there was no accumulation, while High Ridge was all white. |

The system this weekend is looking like it will have very little winter weather associated with it. Quite the change from a few days ago

Darn near a triple phaser showing up in the modeling towards next weekend...that could be a biggun somewhere.

Don’t tease us with the “snow globe” type snow...I’d rather have 40’s and sunny over this crap!

I guess "one week from now" is better than "two weeks from now".

I wonder if these winter storm watches in OK are going to get upgraded to a warning. Things aren't looking quite as certain down that way as they did earlier.

12Z GEFS (and supported by 18Z) has a cohesive low near Memphis at hour 186. 12Z EPS goes cohesive at hour 192 near Chicago. I'm not terribly excited by the 500mb evolution on either. I will say there's clearly a signal for a storm of kind though.

Regarding the weekend storm the GEFS has been doing remarkably well with the general track of the storm. It's been advertising a track buried down there by the Gulf coast for a week now.

I will say there's clearly a signal for a storm of kind though. It's definitely not our classic looking setup for a snowstorm but I could see how that would drop some heavy backside snow for sure. Some of the ensembles are showing impressively deep SLP means at this range...could be a major storm for sure. |

Must be one of those places nobody lives. 00z gfs is further west with the storm. With the euro east and the ggem in the middle, we have a classic Goldilocks situation unfolding. |
