SATURDAY MORNING SNOW CHANCE


The top computer model image is a prediction of what the temperatures, winds, and pressure lines might look like during Saturday morning. I drew in a cold front and also labelled the 25, 30 and 35 degree lines. Temperatures are cold enough for snow in most places except for right along the front. Notice in the computer model image below, the precipitation output indicates .10"-.20" of liquid across Arkansas. That could translate to an inch or two of snow with lighter amounts possible across southern Missouri. It appears as if there is a chance for rain showers transitioning over to snow showers across Arkansas and southern Missouri on Saturday morning. A dusting up to and inch is possible. If the track of the low changes from what the model is predicting for that time frame, then the snow may miss the southern portion of the Ozarks. Keep checking the blog for further updates or watch KOLR10 and KSFX News.

  1. OOZ Thursday model runs, especially the GFS, continue to support this.
