An explanation of what is happening in the atmosphere over the coming days
- Rain chances are on the rise by Tuesday night into Wednesday
- Gusty winds late Tuesday into Tuesday night/Wednesday morning
- Nice Thanksgiving weather!
- Monitoring the weekend for another system
- Active pattern into December. Colder?
Monday through Wednesday:
The main weather story, over the coming days, will be increasing rain chances on Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday. A few showers are possible, over southeast Missouri, as early as Tuesday afternoon. The bulk of the rain, however, will arrive on Tuesday night into the first half of Wednesday. I am hoping we dry out by Wednesday afternoon or evening. I will need to monitor the timing of the cold front. Still a couple of days away.
Let’s take a look at some of the models and what they are showing.
The blue represents snow and the green/dark green represents rain. Perhaps some thunder, as well.
We will have to monitor the speed of the system. Showers might move into southeast Missouri as early as Tuesday afternoon and evening. Keep that in mind.
These maps show you the previous six hours rainfall totals. This first map is from 6 pm Tuesday through 12 am on Wednesday.
This next image is for 12 am on Wednesday through 6 am on Wednesday. The scale is on the right. The scale shows you how much rain might fall during that six hour time period. I am leaning towards a total rainfall over 0.40″ to 0.80″. Perhaps pockets of higher totals. Similar to this last system.
This next image is from 6 am on Wednesday through 12 pm on Wednesday. The rain should end from west to east on Wednesday morning and afternoon. First ending over southeast Missouri. Lingering the longest over the Pennyrile area of western Kentucky. Check out the snow in Wisconsin.
This next image is from 12 pm on Wednesday through 6 pm on Wednesday. Notice that showers should be departing by Wednesday afternoon.
This next image is for another storm system later in the week. Friday, to be exact. The model guidance has mixed opinions on this one. Perhaps some increase in clouds on Friday. For now, I have left the forecast dry. The system does not appear to have much in the way of moisture to work with. I will keep an eye on it, as always.
This next image is for Saturday night and Sunday morning. Another system could spread rain back into our area. This will need to be monitored. The EC guidance is more bullish than the GFS. More bullish meaning it shows more precipitation.
This next image is for Tuesday, November 29th. Yet another system is showing up in the charts. Some of the models show this one producing heavy rain. Plenty of time to monitor. Active active! Perhaps we can finally end our drought.
This next image is from the NAM model guidance. This is for this coming Tuesday and Wednesday.
The NAM model is a bit higher resolution than the GFS.
The NAM guidance shows rain breaking out as early as Tuesday afternoon. This is the future-cast radar for 6 pm Tuesday.
The colors represent where rain is falling. Again, this is the future-cast rainfall.
This next image is for 12 am on Wednesday. Showers in our region. Perhaps some thunder.
This next image is for 6 am on Wednesday. You can see precipitation covering much of the region. Perhaps starting to wind down over our western counties. The timing will need to be monitored.
This next image is for 12 pm on Wednesday. The heavier rain has moved well to our east.
Rainfall totals of 0.40″ to 0.80″ appear possible with the Tuesday/Wednesday system. The threat for severe weather is low. We might have some lightning and gusty winds. Instability appears to be low to non-existent. Thus, the threat for severe weather appears low.
Let’s hope this one overachieves in the rain department. The last one overachieved across the eastern half of our region. We need the rain.
The cold front will exit our region late on Wednesday and that will leave us with clearing sky conditions by Wednesday afternoon and night. Temperatures Monday through Wednesday will average near normal to a bit above normal. We might also have breezy conditions on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
Let’s take a look at some of the wind gusts. These are in knots.
This image is for 6 pm on Tuesday. Gusty winds possible as the storm system approaches our region.
This image is for 12 am on Wednesday. Gusty winds possible in our local area.
This image is for 12 pm on Wednesday. You can see the stronger winds are pushing off to our east.
Thursday:
Thursday should be a beautiful day. Autumn temperatures reaching into the 50’s. We should have mostly sunny sky conditions.
Thursday night through Sunday:
The EC guidance is attempting to bring a system into our region on Thursday night and Friday morning. This would approach from the northwest. It shows some showers developing as a result. This will need to be monitored. Right now, I will leave that time period dry.
Rain chances may increase again on Saturday afternoon and Saturday night. That would occur as another storm system approaches from the west and southwest. Active pattern.
Another system is showing up for next Tuesday.
I am tracking several more storm systems into the second week of December. Perhaps we will have to start talking about snow, as well. Stay tuned.
How much rain is NOAA/WPC forecasting over the coming days?
Rain showers are possible late Tuesday into Wednesday. NOAA is showing up to an inch of rain for some of our counties. Let’s hope!
Scale is on the right side of the image.
Here are two models. The first one is the GFS and the second one is the GEM.

We have regional radars and local city radars – if a radar does not seem to be updating then try another one. Occasional browsers need their cache cleared. You may also try restarting your browser. That usually fixes the problem. Occasionally we do have a radar go down. That is why I have duplicates. Thus, if one fails then try another one.

There is a lot of noise on the internet. A lot of weather maps are posted without explanation. Over time you should learn who to trust for your weather information.
My forecast philosophy is simple and straight forward.
- Communicate in simple terms
- To be as accurate as possible within a reasonable time frame before an event
- Interact with you on Twitter, Facebook, and the blog
- Minimize the “hype” that you might see on television or through other weather sources
- Push you towards utilizing wall-to-wall LOCAL TV coverage during severe weather events
