NO BIG WEATHER SYSTEMS FOR A FEW DAYS


Today, the mid-level disturbance is tracking northeast towards Iowa and has enough lift ahead of it to keep it cloudy across the Ozarks on Sunday(Today). The disturbance will exit tonight and skies will clear. Watch out for fog developing, especially in low lying areas. More sunshine is expected tomorrow along with milder temps.

YESTERDAY
This is a water vapor image that shows moisture at mid-levels of the atmosphere. If you go to:
http://www.ral.ucar.edu/weather/satellite/ you can select either a still image or a loop. I think the loop is really cool to look at! The swirl that I circled is a disturbance at mid-levels. That disturbance will keep clouds in the forecast for Sunday and might produce enough lift to cause a shower or sprinkle to develop.
