Done here. Already getting much brighter. Wind is really picking up, too. Since it's trash pickup day I foresee a number of trash cans plown over in driveways.

and just like that... snow is over. Yep. I have a good feeling about a few rounds of snow this weekend, though. |

.5 inch on the bbq off of willot rd in hickory ridge subdivision. Now accumulation at the bottom of the hill. .5 inch at willot in spencer. Elevation is real Not trying to be a jerk but can you take a picture of that for us I'd like to see a picture as well. Because if your bbq is anything like mine, there is no way you are going to get any accumulation on it -- too wet and warm. Please and thank you. |

The snow or spits of it wasn’t worth mentioning in Festus! It all went north! Glad everyone enjoyed it!

Fake/fabricated reports are the fastest way to get banned. No picture and I consider hitting the ban button. |

GFS looks good for an area wide 2-3" event Friday night. Let's hope it don't pull a stunt like last year and take it away from us in the next day or two. It shouldn't given the pattern. Also really good to see the Euro on board and more robust.

Fake/fabricated reports are the fastest way to get banned. No picture and I consider hitting the ban button. Agreed, we had some of the heaviest snow out here this morning compared to St. Chuck and most that accumulated was a heavy dusting for maybe 15 mins before it melted in which it came down rapidly for an hour to do so little and I’m at a very high elevation. .50” is a big stretch. But as I’ve said before, a picture would solve the problem and I think it should come as a requirement on this forum when posting initial totals to show proof. |

12Z FV3 is significantly moister than the GFS for Friday. Seems like there may be a theme here. Remember our last big snowstorm? The FV3 was much wetter than the GFS. Obviously it makes you wonder if the GFS is low balling the QPF again. Anyway, FV3 has a stripe of 6"+ north of St. Louis with widespread 4" amounts on it's snow depth product.

Hmm...I'm going to be "measuring" lots of digital snow from the GFS on this run.

I don't want to see anyone get banned.
But I would definitely take that as a warning to not be over zealous about it.

The GEM is good for Friday. This is really really good for us. The EPO tanking will help with the cold. -NAO doesn’t get me that jazzed. Negative enough to help us, but not enough to help the EC. Rest of the teleconnections look good. |

Globals look good for Friday. I guess they found the storm again after postponing it, or whatever they were doing with it.
First guess. Metro and north up to about I72, a 3-6” snow. Metro and south to the boot heel, 1-3” with sleet and ice contamination.
This looks like the storms from the winter of 14 I believe that we’re mostly WAA driven.

The Friday system is looking really good on all models. The 6z FV3 was widespread 6”+ amounts through the heart of the area much like the euro

There's good consensus on the globals for 3 chances of accumulating snow the next 7 days
First chance is Friday evening
Second is Saturday evening
Third is early next week
Could be a really active time for the corner

Where you seeing the 12Z FV3? Tropical and Pivotal don't have anyting beyond 06Z. mageval.ncep.noaa.gov It actually runs the same time as the operational GFS. It's distributed to 3rd party at a later time unfortunately. |

That's a hell of a run from the GFS. I'll take back to back 2" and then a 3-6" within 4.5 days.

I hate how the STLNWS sets up wind advisories. It always seems like they forget to take into account the high rises in STL that accelerate the winds for us to also need the advisory. They're already calling for 43mph gusts. Why not throw the advisory and just be on the safe side?
Edit: Yes if you see the comment on their FB page that was obviously me.

I coach our archery team and we have a tournament at Seckman Saturday morning, so that will probably influence the weather. I have a feeling that if there is the slightest hint of snow/winter precip, it will get cancelled. I would rather be safe than sorry though. It's our first tourney, so the kids and I are looking forward to it.
