About to log off for the day... But Im thinking multi-day totals will range from as low as a sloppy dusting... to maybe as much as 3 inches in a few favored spots...especially west and north of the metro. This system/systems just is not organized enough or cold enough to dump widespread significant, long lasting snow. And because it comes in bits and spurts when temps are marginal, there will be melting between waves anyway. It will likely make for some inconvienent travel at times... but for now I'm not crazy impressed. Just a pain in the neck storm.

I think central and northern MO will do quite well with this one. Meanwhile after the mix stuff tonight (maybe) I will probably be singing in the rain once again in Pville.

How warm we get today will have pretty big impacts tonight...as has been stated the ground is quite cold from the last several days. Clouds are quite thick already so getting temps from the low/mid 20's to the mid 30's may be a struggle.

Agree for the most part...but if models keep coming in with a more wound up/pivoting mid-level low, there's potential for this to drop some significant amounts, IMO. Probably favoring NE MO/WC IL but possibly into our region as well. The NAM/EC/GEM all have a favorable track of the 500mb vort/low...the GFS is a bit further N but still decent. All in all though, I'd expect advisories are the way to go with this one.

The 500 vort on the NAM is beautiful. Tracks across southern Mo then takes on a strongly negative tilt to our SE

It looks like we could do this again late next week with both the GFS and Euro showing a weird cut off low again

RGEM has loved the immediate metro for several runs now.

Temps still in the upper 20’s , dew points around 20. With clouds moving in and spotty precipitation, this will keep temps down . I don’t see us getting to 38 today.

I have full sunshine here. At for 5 or 10 minutes. Unexpected and nice to see. Thought we were done with it for several days after yesterday afternoon.

Sure looks like that stuff near Columbia has hit a wall. Hasn't moved further west in some time.

Dry air is definitely eating into the precipitation, but that should help keep the temps down. It’s still 29-30 with dew points in the low 20’s. I do t expect precipitation to move in the metro until the 5-7 pm time frame. A little earlier out west and later to the East . Even if we rise into the low 30’s, we should wet bulb down a few degrees this evening. That combined with frozen ground and precipitation falling at night we should have some light accumulation for sure by morning. Definitely not a big storm , but in this above normal winter any frozen precipitation is a plus.

Does it have a good def zone through our area

Why do people keep saying temps will struggle, it's 33 now at Lambert, 36 here, lol.

The wet bulb thing didn’t work out last Friday. My temp dropped one degree for 45 minutes and then rose 2 degree and sat there the rest of the day until about 10:00PM

Does it have a good def zone through our area It keeps the area in the pivot point so we go straight from frontside precep to backside trowal precep. Atleast that’s what the 6 hour precep charts show

With a SSE breeze temp should continue to rise through the afternoon. It won’t be a quick process though.

The sun keeps popping out in St. Louis, that is not helping keep temps down
