12Z WITH AN ADDITIONAL 1-3 INCHES OF SNOW BY 12Z. LOW CLOUDS
EXTENDED BACK INTO CENTRAL MO AND THESE SHOULD CLEAR EWD PRETTY
QUICKLY WITH THE BACK EDGE IN SOUTHWEST ILLINOIS BY EARLY
AFTERNOON. THINK THE SNOW WILL BE GONE BY EVENING WITH THE HIGH
MARCH SUN ANGLE. WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF THE WARMER MAV TEMPS
TURNED OUT OK...BUT SHAVED A FEW DEGS IN THE SNOW AREAS.
WEAK RIDGING WILL MOVE ACROSS TONIGHT WITH SELY SFC WINDS DEVELOPING
DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. HAVE ADDED SOME PATCHY FOG DUE TO THE
RAIN AND SNOW OVER THE LAST 24+ HRS. BEST CHANCE WILL BE FROM ERN
MO INTO SRN IL WHERE THE WIND WILL BE LIGHTEST.
THE TROF CURRENTLY MOVING THRU THE PAC NW WILL AMPLIFY GREATLY OVER
THE NEXT 36H AS IT MOVES THRU THE GREAT BASIN AND ROCKIES. THIS NEXT
SYSTEM WILL BEGIN IMPACTING THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT. A NICE SWLY LLJ
RAMPS UP ADVECTING SOME DECENT MOISTURE INTO THE AREA. THIS IN
CONCERT WITH MODEST MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES RESULTS IN AN AXIS OF
ELEVATED INSTABILITY. THESE FACTORS COMBINED WITH GOOD LARGE SCALE
ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHRTWV TROF SHOULD RESULT IN A BAND OF
SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS SPANNING THE FRONTAL ZONE MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. NEWER MODEL GUIDANCE IS A BIT SLOWER
THAN THE PREVIOUS RUNS THUS HAVE BOOSTED THE POPS ON TUESDAY MORNING
ACROSS ERN MO INTO IL TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS.
THE ACTIVE PATTERN PERSISTS WITH YET ANOTHER SYSTEM LATE WED NIGHT
INTO THURS.
