Although to be fair, about 2-4 inches of that will be the "mini nor'easter" they get from junk rolling through our area tomorrow night. So they get 1 accumulating snow event, and then an entire STL's winter worth of snow events for the next one.
I want to puke.

I dunno about STL folks, that's a bit of a closer call, but we're not getting more than a trace here in central MO over the next 7 days.

I’ll take it! Looking better with each run now. 9z SREF is solid in your neck of the woods.

seems like our kiss of death would be the bone-dry n'easterly flow off of that Quebec high. That's a steep layer of subsidence to overcome. i.imgur.com/uckVgX6.png

This whole thing is bonkers wrt data flow issues for NCEP. everything is coming in so slow. Dinosaur government strikes again...

UKMET takes the GFS route.
for potential midweek system.

I don't know about any dumps... But it does look like an easterly component of the wind slowed down KSTL's run at 74 this afternoon. Looks like 65 will be the best ya'll can do. Seems like we touched 70 here for a brief moment around 3pm here at KCOU.

imgur.com/Vjb43tp.pngThis is for someone who's got more experience... eyeing the WRF run and noticing this trough axis beginning to protrude in the last few frames. Is that helping sustain that area of deformation at all? Does it help the precip field expand further south? EDIT: I think BRTN just answered my question a few posts back woops.

It's December 9th and I gotta be honest, I'm already tired of this pattern and winter disappointment in general. If I could allow myself to step away I would be much better off, but I keep coming back. It's kinda like anything else in life. Live through the sting because sometimes you'll get a taste of the honey.

Models are starting to hone in on the surface low tracking from STL to CHI. Not going to see much wintry stuff from a track like that I'm trying to figure out why models are focusing so much energy with that lead wave and not the trailing energy...the short wavelength may be partially to blame...but it looks to me like there's enough room for a secondary SLP wave to develop. The 500mb vort max track really isn't too far off to be favorable for us...but the surface cyclone stays stubbornly north and wrapped up. I'm still not convinced it will play out like that. All the energy involved here is still pretty much unsampled by RAOB. BRTN always makes the goat calls in these situations. I still have hope.

Looks like MS/AL could be in for a repeat of this event if the EURO gets its way. A friendly reminder that the winter 2017-2018 left most of our region with under 5" of snow for the season IIRC. I believe it was one of COU's least snowiest at like, 1.7" or something like that. EDIT: Turns out that was 16-17, with 1.6" at COU, 17-18 was gross too though, only 3.2" (16-17 was STL's 3rd least snowiest year on record at 1.4").

those are some encouraging trends across the board from the 00z suite.

Going to be highly dependent on the trajectory of the wave crashing onshore and it's interaction with the current cut-off low over the 4-corners region.
GEM has the vort max riding along the Sierra's allowing it to pool up over the S Great Basin
while the GFS/UKIE take it onshore a bit further to the north and it gets sling-shotted over the great divide.
Euro is on the move.
