Radar already showing activity from near Columbia to St. Joseph. The stuff near Columbia looks pretty light so probably isn't reaching the ground. But near St. Joe the echos are more robust.

It really seems like models have ramped up wave one (SUNDAY) and weakened wave 2 (MONDAY).

Hope we can get that omega thru the DGZ that would certainly help, hopefully others show that as well

Just looking at the sounding... lapse rates aren't strong enough for any thunder.
To me... after looking at tonight's runs- I think my 6.1" at STL guess will likely be attained.

Ok 06z NAM is good. But it needs to stop. Otherwise us folks north of HWY 70 won't be in the heavier band. Lol. NAH, all is is good. I want my southern weather junkies to cash in too.

winter storm warning folks For who? I'm only seeing it for western Mo?? It’s in the zone forecast product. Looks like they converted most of the watch to a warning. Exception around Quincy. |

Where's BRTWXMAN at? Anyone remember if the storm Nov 11/12ish this year had any last minute N/S adjustments which weren't modeled? Hunting geese in S. IL...been keeping an eye on things but not really digging into models too much. Based on what I've seen I'm thinking 2-4" for the metro...still a bit concerned about mixing with the first round given the stout LLJ...but if the heavy band sets up precip rates should ward off the mixing and bump totals to the 3-6" range. Round 2 is looking like another 1-2" with mostly light/moderate rates so this could end up being a pretty nice storm for the metro and 44/70 corridor. And the transition to drizzle inbetween rounds will make for some dangerous driving conditions. Areas from Chester to Salem and points S/SE are probably going to see a nasty mix of sleet and ZR/FRDZ with an inch or two of snow. |

Woke at 5:30 looked out the window and thought the snow had already started! After rising I see that the trees were white washed by the moon! A chilly 21°.

DAM can hold on another 6 hours, then cut loose.

6Z HRRRv4 is very aggressive with snowfall totals. Much more so than the 0Z cycle from last night and the snowfall is far more widespread. The axis of heaviest QPF remains right through the metro area. FWIW...the Kuchera product from COD on this run as 12" at the airport with > 1.0" QPF.    |

The axis of heaviest QPF remains right through the metro area. Any concern with the HRRR that it shows no freezing rain north of roughly I-64 in the metro? Assuming we do get some of the precip as freezing rain instead of snow that would cut into the 6-8" snow total. |

It's probably a little too aggressive with QPF anyway. |

I am not at all confident with metro STL.
I slipped my 4 to 7 band south another 20 miles or so into St Louis County.. but that was only to capture the potential dor 4 to 5 across the metro. I really think the heaviest will set up just north of I-70...wthe drop off south of there will depend on transition times to sleet...lots of variables.
