1130 AM CST TUE NOV 28 2006 ...
WINTER STORM POSSIBLE LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT...THURSDAY...AND INTO THURSDAY NIGHT... AN ARCTIC AIRMASS IS NOW ENTRENCHED OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND SOUTHERN CANADA. THIS VERY COLD AIRMASS WILL BE PULLED INTO THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY BEHIND A POWERFUL COLD FRONT. TEMPERATURES on THURSDAY WILL TUMBLE 30 TO 40 DEGREES FROM THE MILD READINGS OF THE PAST WEEK...WITH THE MERCURY DROPPING INTO THE 20S AND LOWER 30S BY THURSDAY EVENING. WHILE THE COLD AIR MOVES INTO THE AREA...A WAVE OF ENERGY WILL SWEEP OVER THE REGION. THIS MAY SET THE STAGE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF FREEZING OR FROZEN PRECIPITATION...BEGINNING IN NORTHEAST AND POSSIBLY CENTRAL MISSOURI LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT...AND SPREADING INTO SOUTHEAST MISSOURI AND SOUTHERN ILLINOIS THURSDAY EVENING. THERE ARE INDICATIONS THAT SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATIONS MAY OCCUR IN SOME AREAS...DEPENDING ON HOW QUICKLY TEMPERATURES DROP BELOW FREEZING...AND HOW MUCH PRECIPITATION OCCURS AFTER THE TEMPERATURE DIP BELOW 32 DEGREES. AFTER THIS FIRST WAVE OF ENERGY PASSES...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL U.S. THURSDAY NIGHT. BY THIS TIME...THE AIRMASS WILL BE COLD ENOUGH THAT THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE ALL SNOW...AND ACCUMULATING SNOWFALLS MAY OCCUR IN SOME AREAS. THIS STORM SYSTEM IS STILL DEVELOPING OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS. THERE ARE STILL MANY UNCERTAINTIES SUCH AS TIMING...LOCATION OF THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION AND THE DEPTH OF THE COLD AIR OVER THE AREA. ALL OF THESE FACTORS ARE CRITICAL TO FORECASTING THE TYPE AND AMOUNT OF WINTRY PRECIPITATION THE AREA RECEIVES. WHILE THE SPECIFICS FOR A GIVEN AREA ARE STILL UNKNOWN... THE LATEST FORECAST INFORMATION STRONGLY SUGGESTS THAT ADVERSE WINTER WEATHER IS ON THE WAY FOR PARTS OF THE CENTRAL U.S. TRAVELERS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THIS STORM SYSTEM WILL BE IMPACTING AREAS FROM OKLAHOMA AND KANSAS...THROUGH NORTHERN ARKANSAS... MISSOURI...ILLINOIS AND SOUTHERN IOWA...INTO INDIANA AND MICHIGAN.
