Sounds like 1/2" of snow is causing a lot of issues on roads in mid MO and the lake area today. Hwy 54 between Osage Beach and Camdenton is a parking lot. Cold temps and alittle snow never fails to make the roads a mess |

People are never going to respect minor snowfall events with 20/25:1 ratios.

You should see what Chris posted on FB! MODOT has the picture on their page too! It's up to 25 here. But when it's in the teens road salt is not very effective. |

Checking on MoDOT cameras that jam on I-70 is at least 12 miles long.

Wednesday Night's into Friday's system does have that vibe of being something epic. I have a feeling and have had it for a couple days. These marginal events when the 850MB temps are -0 to -5*C and freezing through the column with only the surface above means precip should effectively wet bulb down enough that after a brief period of rain we should switch over to snow and with a favorable upper level storm track as well as some pivot action should yield some very heavy wet snow of 5-8" possibly up to 10" somewhere in or around the forecast area and frankly I feel we're in a very good spot at this stage of the game.

Definitely have had more snow today than I thought we'd get. Maybe about 1/2 inch or so lol. Even a very brief period of moderate snow. Some slick spots, and snow covered roads on my way to work.

Sounds promising but I am confused. I thought the main bands go through NW MO and Central Iowa. Would't we want that shifted more Southeast as it looks like we are still on the Southern edge? |

That is some low ratio snow on the NAM. Kuchera and Cobb both are < 10:1.

question .. seems like NWS is leaning on GFS for the late week storm. Is Euro and NAM showing any rain? Curious as to why the NWS seems to give more weight to the GFS and it's warmer solution?
