Don’t look at the euro It will only get your hopes up 12z euro is rarified air for a storm within 6 days. Wow |

The last time I looked at models it didn't look like there was enough amplification in the N stream ahead of that ejecting trof to get the cold air in place in time...has that changed? Euro approach would support enough dynamic cooling with a rapidly deepening low. If it was a little colder the 12z euro would be one of the best model runs inside 6 days in the last 15 years. |

goodness, if only the EURO would verify. LOL At least it's less than a week away and it's the EURO but I would still bet it'll be mostly rain.

The cold connection the EURO shows looks very borderline with the N stream wave lifting into NE Canada well ahead of the lifting/deepening storm. But I could see how a rapidly deepening cyclone like that could produce enough dynamical lift to change over to wet heavy snow as it passes. We'll have to see how that trends over the next several days.

Is everyone seeing lots of flocks of starlings in their neighborhoods or homes? A friend of mine asked me this morning if I was seeing lots of them. I am not. She is in St. Charles, about a mile as the crow flies from me and she is seeing lots of them! |

00z GEM is a thing of beauty! The GFS is all wet.

00z Ukmet is north.
Icon is south.
Gfs is north.
Ggem is just right.

Trash model runs this morning so far.
As to be expected.

Safe to say no single model has a strong lock on the weekend pattern. There is a lot of jet energy in play and a deep long wave with embedded short wavelength shortwaves which are giving the models fits.
Safe bet right now... and one that matches what I would expect this time of year in this pattern is mostly rain for us... maybe some thunder. But I think there is a decent shot at a strungout band of light precip back in the cold air... some of which may end up being wet snow. But chances of anything beyond mood snow in our area don't look good at the moment.

Gust ("cold") front went thru or is about to! Dropping temps this afternoon!
Also it seems to me at least that Dec is getting off to a cloudier start than what was originally forecasted 3-5 days out. Observed highs have been slightly colder relatively than expected. Just more proof that's it's a struggle to have sun for an entire day in December in STL! Unsettled and wet is becoming more common for Dec for STL. Something Snowman knows too well. Hopefully we can change to a snowier pattern the 2nd half of Dec.

I’m really hoping the gfs starts to trend south seeing as I may be in the stl area watching this beauty unfold haha this thing has a chance to be an stl classic the DAM won’t stand a chance.

The current drought is the best part . Win win Yes the drought is bad still, but at least we are slowly starting to get out of the hole. Hopefully the upper Midwest gets a lot of snow/moisture this winter too. |

If modeling doesn't start to trend back south later today then categorical risk for severe weather on day 4 may be expanded northward tomorrow, perhaps even including our area. As it is so far signs are pointing to a high shear low instability environment in place Saturday as the system moves through. GFS and ECMWF are fairly similar with EHI values over 1 in central to eastern MO in the vicinity of the triple point. The exception being that the ECMWF is stingy with convection whereas the GFS is generating a robust line of storms.  |

I added thunder yesterday to my forecast to make a baby step in that direction. |

They do dumb it down a little bit, but it's pretty much 24/7 forecast with pretty good detail from their better people. |

The weekend snowstorm just straight up disappeared on most models
It was always unlikely we got snow anyway, but dang
