Wx 24/7 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 7.5" here in Monett and still raining. Flash Flood Emergency for McDonald county. Hearing reports that the entire town of Noel is cut off. That is no small feat considering how high the bridges are in portions of that area.

NwWhiteOut Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Temp is 31 F with, perhaps, a half inch of sleet on the ground here. We are in a lull at the moment with just some light ice crystals falling. It looks like we have some intermittent heavier showers incoming for the rest of the day and (hopefully) the upper low passing through late tonight into tomorrow. Roads are sleet covered but passable if you take it easy. EDIT: I just looked at the regional radar and, for you folks in NW Arkansas and SW Missouri, wow! It looks like it is STILL raining heavily with, at minimum, several more hours of rain to go at these same rates. I know some of the models were spitting out 10"+ qpfs but I bet you guys are approaching that now with plenty more to go! Yikes. Yea tulsa sounded like we would get a break this afternoon then 2-3" more of rain tonight into tomorrow late morning! I have no idea on totals but its a ton, there is some pretty major flooding throughout fayetteville here. It's still coming down very heavily.

NwWhiteOut Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 So many roads closed here, I can only imagine if this was snow! Dont know but my temp went down another 2 degrees sitting at 36 now. Is this thing tracking differently or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Up to 8.52" of rain here with up to 12" possible. That's like what... 10 feet of snow. I'll just pretend the ponds in my yard are snowbanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKwx2K4 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 I think I'm over 10 inches of rain by now. Last I saw was 9 and 1/8 inches but that was over 2 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Kansas City here. I posted this in the Lakes/Ohio Valley thread. Hope you don't slip on the sleet. The 18z NAM precip-type algorithm has an unbelievable 1.75" of QPF of sleet (3.5" of sleet?) from Kansas City going up towards Cedar Rapids IA (narrowly missing Des Moines?). Something to think about for anyone reading this in Iowa or Missouri. http://coolwx.com/cgi-bin/getptype.cgi?region=nc&model=nam&run=18&fhr=29&field=acctype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BryanB Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Very heavy sleet falling in Kansas City north of I-70, hearing reports of snow falling along and north of Highway 36 near St. Joe, MO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Both the 00z NAM and 00z Euro have corrected a bit east with the system. I would not be surprised to see more of a mix farther east all the way into W MO and maybe NE OK. NW AR might have a shot at a mix as well as the system departs tomorrow. I wouldn't be surprised if it snowed under the cold core of the low, either. 00z Euro temps at 700 MB are generally warm except under the core of the low, which is set to move across our immediate area late tomorrow morning. This has been quite the storm either way. I can still hear the winds howling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illinois river near Watts bridge is forecast to break it's all time flood record within the next hour or 2. It was .3 feet behind last time I checked. Crazy stuff.Edit: Stage updated while I was writing. Now .08 feet from the all-time record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhope84 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 The low is taking an interesting track for Tulsa. Surprise heavy sleet that's already made roads a mess. Should transition to snow soon. Radar trends are our friend, it appears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar trends are our friend, it appears. Yeah, somewhere along the way, OKC ended up in the screw zone. Not a flake has fallen here and the upper low is now gone and headed your way. We had a bit of sleet yesterday morning and about five minutes more of sleet earlier this morning with nothing but freezing drizzle in between.

ouamber Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Wow, I just woke up to a complete mess here in Tulsa! Sleet, freezing rain, and snow is coming down hard and the roads are slushy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wx 24/7 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I am a bit surprised TSA hasn't hoisted an advisory for some more of their counties in the NE corner, especially since they are reporting 1/2" of sleet at their offices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Just barely outside the discussion region, but in far southwest Iowa we have a couple inches of light fluffy snow that is being driven by 20-30 mph wind. I'm really watching the track of the low, if it goes much more east we'll really bust on amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wx 24/7 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Now that TSA is on board, we need SGF to follow suit. I know this isn't going to be a blockbuster storm, but it would be a nice way to end this long duration ordeal. Low does look to be a bit further east than forecast expected. Edit: NWS SGF has issued a WWA for areas along and west of an Anderson to Osceola line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 It looks like the 12z models are taking the precip shield still too far NW of where we need it to be. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
