Weekend Storm
Tuesday, November 27 -- 4:45PM
With the storm still a full 4-5 days out, the models are now predicting that it will be just a smidge too warm to have a full-blown winter storm in STL over the weekend. All I can say is....that SUCKS.
But there is still hope. The moisture seems to be in good phase with the needed lift in the atmosphere for the event, and all we need is for the cold air to get here a little sooner.
I will update as I get a better feel for this. The one thing I can say is, this should be a weekend storm, and will not likely effect school closings, regardless of the nature of the precipitation.

Saturday/Sunday Winter Storm?
Monday, November 26 -- 4:20PM
Hmmmm. Some promising wording in the NWS Forecast Discussion this afternoon, mentioning winter precip for the late weekend period....
Then again, using a longterm weather model has about as much accuracy as using a sundial on a cloudy day, so don't get excited quite yet. But things may get interesting!
Stay tuned.

Winter Storm Season is Upon Us!
Hello all-
In meteorological terms, Winter in the northern hemisphere encompasses the months of December, January and February. But anyone who remembers (and how could you forget?) the Great Ice Storm of 2006, which occurred on November 30 of last year, knows that winter weather can happen in St. Louis just about anytime between Halloween and "tax day," April 15th.
With that being said, its time to bring my Winter Storm blog out of hibernation.
I will update this blog anytime winter weather appears to be in our forecast.
So sit back, and think snow!
