Forecast discussion
- A brief “warm up” today and tomorrow. Winds will make it feel cooler.
- The cold front arrives on Friday. Cold Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. But, how cold?
- Low-end rain and snow chances this week. We do not expect anything impactful at this time.
- I am monitoring Saturday. Some data shows a higher chance of precipitation, but for now, they are the outlier.

Seven-day outlook graphic.
See the video for more details specific to your county. This is a broad-brushed outlook for the entire region.

.
Today through Friday
Good morning, everyone.
6 AM temperatures
We are once again waking up to chilly temperatures.
All in all, nothing extreme. Just chilly.

.
A relatively tranquil weather pattern will continue into the weekend. We will have some low-end rain and snow chances, but the precipitation will likely be so light that it has little or no impact on travel or otherwise.
It is becoming a bit dry across the region. We could use some precipitation.
A cold front will move through the region on Wednesday.
Today and Wednesday will be warmer. It will feel cooler, however, because of the strong southerly winds. Winds will gust in the 10 to 20 mph range. They may gust even higher on Wednesday.
Temperatures on Wednesday will actually fall during the day. This will happen from north to south as the cold front moves through the region.
Here are the temperatures on Wednesday. Notice how they fall during the day. Especially over the northern half of the region.

Let me show you the precipitation probabilities.
Overall, low-end chances of light rain and flurries over the coming days.
What is the % chance of precipitation?
Tuesday 6 PM to Wednesday 6 AM

Wednesday 6 AM to Wednesday 6 PM




.
Saturday to Monday
Another cold front will push through the region on Thursday and Thursday night.
The cold air has slowed a tad. The cold air has also modified a bit from previous outlooks. Not quite as cold.
Yesterday, I was forecasting single digits on Saturday morning. That no longer appears to be the case. We will likely see lows in the teens and twenties on Saturday morning.
It now appears that Sunday morning will be the coldest. That would mean low teens near Mt Vernon to the upper teens and lower twenties across the Missouri Bootheel and along the Kentucky/Tennessee border southward.

There are a lot of questions about the Saturday forecast.
More and more data is showing precipitation. I am not confident in the probabilities of rain or a wintry mix on Saturday and Saturday night. I am closely monitoring it.
For now, I have tossed the models that are showing what you see below. With that said, I will monitor trends.
Here is what some of the data is showing
GDFS model for Saturday afternoon and evening.
Green is rain. Blue is snow.

EC model for Saturday afternoon and evening

GFS model for Saturday afternoon

.
I will monitor trends in today’s data. If precipitation falls on Saturday and Saturday night, then it would likely be rain or a wintry mix.
Frostbite is a concern for those who work outside on Friday night into Sunday night. Take common-sense precautions if you must work outside.
