Much of Missouri Could Be Smacked by Significant Snow in Days

There is still uncertainty about the timing and snow amounts, but it looks like much of Missouri will see significant snow in just a few days.

Let's start with the authority. The National Weather Service in St. Louis, Missouri says (as of now) they expect a tricky transition between rain, freezing rain and eventually snow starting Monday night and continuing through nearly all day Tuesday. Nearly all of Missouri has a great chance of seeing at least 2 inches of snow and some areas especially south of I-70 have a good chance of seeing more than 4 inches of snow.

When and where in Missouri will the heaviest snow be?

To emphasize again that timing is still up in the air, current computer model runs show Tuesday afternoon and early evening as the most intense times of snow.

As we saw with last week's snow storm, the dry air greatly limited the amount of snow most of Missouri received and there's always the chance this could happen again. But, if I were you and I lived in the southern half of Missouri, I would plan for less than ideal driving conditions Tuesday during the day and hope for the best.
