Yea our snow climo is not so good. Storms usually get suppressed south [N Arkansas and missouri bootleg] or miss us north [NE MO cashes].
-
St. Louis finally cashing in on a >1'' event lol. .18'' rain equivalent has fallen as of 12:51, I'd garner 2-3'' on the ground with maybe 2 hours to go. Rates have been really good [~1''/hr in the last hour] and we've had a few reports of thundersnow in south city. Temp is 31, wind steady 16 with 20 gusts. Trying to enjoy this assuming it may be the last full snow storm of the year in our parts.

Thick glaze over everything in St. Louis, temperatures are now right around the freezing mark. Per NWS airport obs, we have ~.15 of precip that's fallen.

Did Someone Say Clipper(Hybrid)!?! 1/18-1/19

Great little band has setup in east MO including St. Louis Metro. Not sure how long it will last, but may bring us up to just over an 1 given we have a heavy dusting now. Temp 26. -
Nice band has setup in central MO though we've been dealing with virgo for the last few hours in St. Louis Metro. It's looking like some precip is falling in Jefferson and radar looks juicier just west so I anticipate the column to moisten in the next hour or so. LSX is calling for up to an inch which is more than I would've expected. Excited to pad our maybe 3'' season total with another inch lol. Temp is a balmy 9F.

-7F in St. Louis city, feels like -25F. This is the coldest air I've ever experienced

Still some light snow showers in St. Louis metro. Radar has some 20dbz streaking which transiently gets visibility down but no less than 4-5 miles. Looking like some nearby areas are receiving a very light accumulation. Always nice to get a little surprise burst
-
Came back to flash frozen car doors and wind whipped light snow after work today. No accumulations but man does it feel wintry out. For those in LSX purview here's the AFD: Expanded slight chance (15%) to chance (50%) PoPs southward through southeast Missouri and southwest Illinois this evening and continued the potential through the next few hours. This is being supported by low/mid-level saturation, a weak trough and a couple of compact mid-level lobes of vorticity, which are providing lift behind the departing system. Persistent flurries and occasional light snow has led to brief visibility reductions, a few as low as 2-3 miles. Accumulations aren`t expected to be much more than a dusting where light snow results, but it will be enough to create wispy art work (via wind-driven, fractured snow grains) on roadways, as it blows around. A few slick spots cannot be rules out, especially with the drastically cold temperatures and strong winds. Light snow potential will slowly taper southwest to northeast with most activity lifting out of the area by 06z

One of the few things I really miss about living in the mid atlantic is seeing prolonged 2''+/hr rates from deepening gulf lows careening past hatteras toward the 40/70 benchmark. Enjoy this rare midwestern bomb while you have it

I feel you brother. Hoping more favorable patterns in February -
Someone in MO will cash out with this one. Excited to see how this evolves on the models.

Midwest/Ohio Valley/Great Lakes Snow January 24-26
Dalfy replied to Baum's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Ugh, we just can't beat climo can we. Given how sheared and southeast this wave is, I'll be happy if we reach 3'' in the city. -
Midwest/Ohio Valley/Great Lakes Snow January 24-26
Dalfy replied to Baum's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
For greater STL metro I think fair prediction is 4-6'' --minimum range: 2''; maximum 8''. -

12x gfs is a dream for stl. We’re overdue baby, I’m hoping track stays put -
Rooftop dusting between I70 and I44, few inches 50-100mi north and south of here. What a way to end the season
