  1. I think you vastly underestimate how difficult it is to forecast winter weather in this area
  2. I wouldn't say it looks good for snow, but it looks good for freezing rain and sleet
  3. I will take nothing over an ice storm any day of the week.
  4. The AFD from SGF is a very interesting read. Mentions the possibility of strong tornadoes, as well as a potentially significant ice storm. Crazy system.
  5. Pretty sure it has been wrong several times this winter already but it was wrong when it was calling for snow and the GFS was not. IMO, side with the model that shows nothing then wait and see what happens. Typically, the model that shows nothing, is the correct solution.
  6. I wouldn't count on them agreeing this weekend, I expect them to come into agreement next Friday. lol
  7. Snow and sleet both accumulate at 10 to 1 with that model, so that's probably not mostly snow.
  8. Yep! I am sitting in at least moderate snow right now. Starting to get that foggy look outside.
  9. Pretty decent "surprise" snow in republic tonight. Probably looking at close to a half inch and still falling
  10. Surprised there isn't more talk about tonight. Looks to be a "decent" snow/ice event, considering how little talk there has been on here.
  11. Well certainly better than nothing. Not sure I see anything in the next week or so to get excited about though
  12. Just like every other model. Its been almost a year exactly since one of these trended in a positive direction as the event neared this area. When it comes to forecasting winter weather in this area, on technique works best, persistence forecasting, forecast the what has been happening until something different actually happens. For all the excitement there has been regarding the next week to 10 days, its now looking cool to cold with a few flurries mixed in, nothing has changed yet.
  13. I wouldn't jump ship based on the 18z nam, but I would also stop getting my hopes up 5+ days in advance of the storm.
  14. The NAM is significantly colder than the GFS. Not sure what to think of that, but the 18Z nam was 11 degrees colder than the 18z GFS, at 84 hours. I don't put much stock into the Nam, especially at 84 hours but that may be something to watch.
  15. It will be interesting to see how well models handle the cold air. Most globals don't handle artic air well, and tend to be slow with it. Plus it seems like there will be snow on the ground still north of us. Would a quicker arrival of the colder air, push the system further south?
  16. I just have a feeling southern mo is going to get slammed with cold rain again, because that's what we do.
  17. The temp hasn't been above 35 in well over 24 hours. And we are under a flood advisory. That's just crazy bad luck
  18. 33 and rain for the last 8 hours. Bring on severe weather season, I'm over winter.
  19. At some point, we just have to consider that this is the new normal
  20. At least you guys were never in it. SWMO is about to have another one ripped away after looking like we were in a good spot.
  21. SGF going with dusting-2 for the metro, nothing out west, and 2-4 east. Pretty decent differences compared to the pic above.
  22. SGF going with 1-3 isolated up to 5. I haven't seen a map of locations yet though
