SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
Winter Weather Update.
Friday, January 5, 2024.
Counties
Butler, Stoddard, Bollinger, Cape Girardeau, Perry, and Ste Genevieve Counties
Randolph, Perry, Jackson, Franklin, Union, Hamilton, Williamson, and Jefferson Counties
A rain/snow mix will move into southeast Missouri and southern Illinois this afternoon and tonight. Temperatures tonight will likely drop to near freezing.
It is possible that Stoddard, Cape Girardeau, Union, Williamson, Franklin, and Hamilton Counties remain mostly rain. I included them as a buffer zone along the area with a higher chance of snow (to the west/northwest).
A slushy accumulation of a dusting to an inch or so of snow will be possible in the above mentioned counties. The farther west/northwest you travel, the higher the probabilities for light accumulating snow.
Remember, bridges and overpasses freeze first. Some slick spots will be possible tonight into early tomorrow morning.

48-hour forecast
.
.
Friday to Friday
1. Is lightning in the forecast? Monitor. I am watching a storm system next Monday night and Tuesday.
2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? Monitor. I am watching a storm system next Monday night and Tuesday. The risk of severe weather will likely remain to our south and southeast.
3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? Not at this time.
4. Will the heat index exceed 100 degrees? No.
5. Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees? No.
6. Is measurable snow and/or sleet in the forecast? Possible. A light dusting of snow is possible over southeast Missouri and portions of southern Illinois later today into tomorrow morning. Mainly from Butler County northeast into Bollinger County and then northeast towards Mt Vernon. Temperatures will be marginal for accumulation or impacts. But, a slushy dusting can’t be ruled out. Watch bridges and overpasses.
I am watching another system Monday night into Tuesday night. Depending on the track of the area of low pressure, there could be measurable snow over portions of the region. I am watching MO/IL. Monitor updates. If the low tracks farther south and east, then the snow would shift south and east.
I am watching a fast moving system next Wednesday and Thursday.
I am watching a system next Friday into Sunday.
7. Is freezing rain/ice in the forecast? Monitor. I am watching a system Monday night into Tuesday night.
I am watching two more systems after that. I can’t rule out wintry precipitation. Monitor updates.
Freezing rain is rain that falls and instantly freezes on objects such as trees and power lines
.
Fire weather risk level.
Friday: 2. Very low risk.
Friday night: 2. Very low risk.
Saturday: 2. Very low risk.
Saturday night: 4. Low risk.
Fire Weather Discussion
Rain chances enter SEMO this afternoon, with rain becoming widespread for the evening and overnight hours. Some mixing of light snow is possible in northwestern portions of the Quad State, with no more than a light dusting of snow on grassy surfaces. Light rain chances briefly return Saturday night. Dry conditions are expected Sunday through Monday morning as winds become breezy Monday. Rain moves into the western half of the forecast area Monday afternoon, becoming widespread Monday evening through Tuesday, with more substantial rainfall amounts over an inch and gusty winds. Some mixing of snow will again be possible, most likely in northwestern portions of the Quad State.
A Haines Index of 6 means a high potential for an existing fire to become large or exhibit erratic fire behavior, 5 means medium potential, 4 means low potential, and anything less than 4 means very low potential.

Forecast Discussion
Good day, everyone.
We are waking up to chilly temperatures. Check out the feels like temperatures as of 7 AM.
We check out the watches, advisories, and warnings and we see a winter weather advisory over portions of Arkansas.
I will be monitoring portions of southeast MO and southern IL for icy roads tonight.
Radar shows rain and snow spreading northeast towards our region. This will arrive this afternoon into tonight. Rain for most of the region. A rain snow mix over southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
There is a low end chance of a slushy accumulation over Butler County northeast to Bollinger County and then northeast to Mt Vernon, Illinois.
The Hrrr model shows very little accumulation potential.
Here was the 7 AM radar (scroll down for our live local winter radars)
All of that is spreading east northeast.
Here is the latest WPC/NOAA forecast for rain totals Friday/Saturday.
A few lingering showers or rain/snow showers will be possible Saturday night and Sunday morning.
Sunday will deliver a mix of sun and clouds. Another storm system will be approaching our region by Monday.
Clouds will thicken Sunday night and Monday. That will lead to our big storm system that we have been watching for a month. I had been predicting a big storm around January 10th. It will arrive a couple of days early.
Our next system is a doozey. This is what the GFS and Canadian models show. Check out the widespread precipitation centered around the deep area of low pressure. It has been a while since we have seen a storm like this.
Green is rain. Yellow and orange are moderate to heavy rain. Blue is snow. Dark blue is heavier snow.
This is the first wave of precip Monday afternoon and evening.
Then a second wave Monday night into Tuesday.
Here is the Canadian model. It has the low are bit farther southeast. Thus, the rain snow line is farther southeast. We will need to watch this.
Showers will develop Monday and increase in coverage Monday afternoon and night. Rain will continue into Tuesday and Tuesday night.
A few thunderstorms will be possible from the Missouri Bootheel into Kentucky and Tennessee.
Now, the next big question is snow. This is going to be a difficult forecast and we are still five days out.
The system in question is still out over the Pacific Ocean. We have still have several days to fine tune the forecast.
Models continue to struggle with where to take the center of low pressure.
The track of the low is key to our weather forecast. Even a shift of 50 to 100 miles will completely change the forecast for some counties.
If you want rain, then you want the low to push to your northwest. If you want snow, then you want the low farther south and east.
At this time, it appears the higher snow chances will end up over portions of Missouri and Illinois. The question is how far south and east. That will depend on the track of the area of low pressure. I will know a lot more tonight and tomorrow.
The rain/snow line may end up across eastern Missouri and southern Illinois. Especially towards the end of the event.
There will likely be a sharp cutoff between where rain occurs and where snow occurs. Although, as the colder air sweeps into the region, behind the low, many areas could briefly change to snow before precipitation ends.
Snow accumulation can’t be ruled out with this system. The highest chance of that, in my area, would be across portions of southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
A deepening low will track across our region. Model guidance has been showing an area of low pressure ranging from 972 mb to 982 mb. Nearing record low levels for barometric pressure in our local area.
Deep lows do strange things. They tend to produce surprises when it comes to snow accumulation and placement.
Temperatures will be marginal for snow accumulation. The amount of snow that falls will likely depend on the snow rate and timing. If it occurs at night, then chances for accumulation will increase.
I am watching Butler County, Missouri northeast to Bollinger County, Missouri and then northeast towards Jefferson County, Illinois. Along and northwest of that line has a higher chance of snow vs areas south and east.
Again, all of this is HIGHLY dependent on where that low tracks. I will be closely monitoring the data today and tomorrow.
They can also lead to high gradient wind gusts. We are going to have to monitor the risk of 40+ mph winds. That would mainly be Monday afternoon into Wednesday.
We had a system like this last March and it produced widespread 50 to 60 mph winds. Wind gusts of at least 40 mph will be possible with this system. Perhaps higher.
Let me show you a few maps.
I like to use ensembles when forecasting in the long range.
Here is the GFS ensembles showing the track of the area of low pressure. A large number of them are clustered around southern Illinois into southern Indiana.
This would keep the higher snow chances northwest of St Louis. But, close to some of my counties. Again, if the low were to track through Kentucky/Tennessee then you would shift the rain/snow line farther into southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
Here is the EC ensembles. They match up fairly well with the EC
And the Canadian ensembles. The Canadian is a tad farther southeast vs the other models.
Let’s look at snow probabilities from the ensembles.
What is the probability of 3 inches of snow?
GFS model
EC model
The model run from 24 hours ago showed this for snow depth.
This morning’s run showed this
Here is the latest WPC snowfall outlook. What is the probability of 0.25″ or more of melted precipitation occurring Monday and Tuesday?
0.25″ of melted precipitation would be 2 to 3 inches of snow.
At this time, the risk is higher north northwest of my forecast counties (Monday/Monday night).
Tuesdays/Wednesday.
As always, during the winter months, check back for updates. Don’t walk away with one forecast and think it won’t change. We do well in the day one through three time-frame. During an active pattern it becomes increasingly complicated as we move into day four, five, six, and seven.
