Nice write up by Ricky. Nice to have him as a regular here too.

Still seems weird seeing the warning in portion of LOT as the only warning so far. I'm assuming offices are waiting for the afternoon package to make any changes.

 

They know idiots around her can't drive, whether it's the 1st, 8th or 30th snow.  This way, it's the "we told you so" approach.

DVN continues to tease.

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1245 PM CDT TUE MAR 11 2014

EVOLUTION OF THE SYSTEM OVER THE NEXT 4-5 HOURS WILL BE THE CRITICAL
TIME FRAME IN WHAT OCCURS TONIGHT. THE CURRENT HEADLINE SET UP MAY
BE POTENTIALLY MODIFIED IN THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. WHAT THAT
MODIFICATION WILL BE HAS NOT YET BEEN DETERMINED.

THE WARM FRONT REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI INTO
CENTRAL ILLINOIS. SOUTH OF THE FRONT IT HAS GOTTEN QUITE WARM.
CURRENT TRENDS SUGGEST NOT MUCH MOVEMENT IN THE FRONT FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON. THUS MAX TEMPERATURES IN THE FAR SOUTH
MAY BE TOO WARM. RAIN/SPRINKLES SHOULD BEGIN BREAKING OUT ACROSS
THE FAR NORTH SHORTLY AFTER MID AFTERNOON.

In other words, they haven't a clue of what to expect.

Not if the FGEN banding sets up as some guidance shows.

 

 

sure, some of the guidance shows that...it should be pretty clear once precip starts blossoming what the northern extent will be.

 

some minor good news, but the RAP is just a little bit stronger than a few runs back....so we might have stopped the bleeding.
