Another round of wintry weather targets Mid-Missouri Tuesday Evening
THIS AFTERNOON: Some peeks of sunshine are possible this afternoon, but for the most part, clouds are in control across Mid-Missouri. Temperatures will hover in the upper 20s and low 30s through the evening hours, but we will remain dry. A jacket will be needed for any evening activities.
TONIGHT: We’re tracking increasing cloud cover ahead of our next storm system overnight… Northeast winds kick up through the night up to 11 mph which will create wind chills in the upper 10s out the door tomorrow morning. Once more, the jacket will be your best friend.
EXTENDED: The first part of Tuesday looks dry, but we’ll be tracking our next round of winter weather by the afternoon. As a low pressure system lifts northeast, it will bring the return of snow back to Mid-Missouri, developing by late afternoon in the Ozarks and spreading northeast through the evening. Accumulations look likely with possible slick roads by late Tuesday. By 10 PM snow accumulation will be up to 1″. Overnight, snow will gradually change to freezing rain and drizzle before ending and ice accumulation is possible by early Wednesday morning. Ice accumulation looks more likely in our southeastern counties, but only a few hundredths up to .1″ is expected. Snow accumulation will be higher to the north and west where up to 4-6″ is possible. Most areas on average will see 2-3″. Precipitation moves out Wednesday morning and by the afternoon temperatures make it back above freezing, into the upper 30s. Temperatures will gradually warm up throughout the week, with a chance at seeing 50 degrees by next weekend, with the unsettled pattern continuing and more rain or mix chances.
