Missouri and Illinois
Any accumulation would be light and patchy. Mainly during the overnight and early morning hours. A dusting to a coating on mainly grassy surfaces and elevated surfaces. Let’s keep an eye on temperatures. Remember, bridges and overpasses can freeze quickly once temperatures drop below 32 degrees.
Any issues with this event will be limited and we are not forecasting an impactful event. Meaning widespread travel impacts.

Wednesday to Wednesday
1. Is lightning in the forecast? No.
2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? No.
3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? No.
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. Rain and snow showers are possible this week. During the overnight hours, temperatures may dip below freezing, that could lead to light snow accumulation. Mainly over southeast MO and southern IL. Monitor updates in case this upper level low brings some surprises. That is not uncommon with these type of systems. The primary concern will be icy bridges and overpasses. See the daily forecast below for details on when and where.
7. Is freezing rain/ice in the forecast? No.
Freezing rain is rain that falls and instantly freezes on objects such as trees and power lines

Fire weather risk level.
Wednesday: 4. Low risk.
Wednesday night: 3. Very low risk.
Thursday: 4. Low risk.
Thursday night: 3. Very low risk.
Fire Weather Discussion
A cooler weather pattern is locked in through the next week. Our next chance for some light rain arrives today and continues off and on through Friday. Some snow may mix in, mainly tonight into Thursday morning and again Thursday night into Friday morning. Little if any accumulation is expected. Precipitation amounts will largely remain under a quarter of an inch, but may range up to a half inch along Interstate 64 in southern Illinois. Dry weather will return this coming weekend.
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.

- Rain and snow showers.
- Some light accumulation possible on mainly grassy and elevated surfaces.
- Monitoring next week
Weather advice:
Make sure you have three to five ways of receiving your severe weather information.
Forecast Discussion
Good day, everyone.
We have a large upper level low that will pivot into the region today into Friday. This upper level low will be colder temperatures, intervals of clouds, scattered rain showers, and scattered snow showers.
We do not expect widespread travel impacts from this event. Road surfaces are fairly warm.
As always, remember that bridges and overpasses can freeze before other surfaces if temperatures dip below freezing. That is a possibility, but any issues would be isolated.
Any snow accumulation would be light. Mainly on grassy surfaces. Elevated surfaces. A couple of locations, if a burst of snow develops, could receive a dusting or coating of snow. That would likely quickly melt with ground warm temperatures and temperatures rising above freezing each morning and afternoon.
You might even sleep through any snow accumulation!
This is a light rain event. Mostly in the trace to 0.25″ range.
Temperatures will be near normal over the coming days. At times, slightly below average. But, nothing extreme.
Winds will occasionally gust above 20 mph. That will make it feel colder, especially when it is drizzling or raining.
All in all, that the greatest forecast into Friday.
I did extend precipitation chances into Friday. Ending Friday afternoon and evening. Friday night through Tuesday is likely to be dry, but I am watching a southern system Sunday night and Monday. If it were a tad farther north then we would have to add additional rain and snow shower chances to the forecast. Monitor updates.
Here are some models showing snow totals. As you can see, not much to work with here. If you are hoping for accumulating snow then you might be disappointed. A few locations may end up with a heavier snow shower or band.
Four different models showing snow totals over the coming 72 hours. A hint of snow here and there, but not much.

Today’s Storm Prediction Center’s Severe Weather Outlook
Light green is where thunderstorms may occur but should be below severe levels.
Dark green is a level one risk. Yellow is a level two risk. Orange is a level three (enhanced) risk. Red is a level four (moderate) risk. Pink is a level five (high) risk.
One is the lowest risk. Five is the highest risk.
A severe storm is one that produces 58 mph wind or higher, quarter size hail, and/or a tornado.
