THE MODEL CONSENSUS IS IN FAIR AGREEMENT THAT ANOTHER COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT. AVAILABLE
MOISTURE IS IN QUESTION BUT THE CONSENSUS IS GENERATING SLIGHT
CHANCE TO LOW CHANCE POPS THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT.
FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY IS INTERESTING. ALL BUT ONE MODEL IS BUILDING A

FRONT. DPROG/DT OF THE MODELS INDICATE A STRONGER HIGH WITH
NORTHEAST/EAST FLOW ACROSS THE AREA. THE CURRENT MODEL CONSENSUS HAS
SLIGHT CHANCE TO LOW CHANCE POPS FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY. THESE
POPS ARE THE RESULT OF THE ONE MODEL BRINGING RAIN INTO THE AREA.
THE OVERALL BIG PICTURE WOULD SUPPORT A DRY FORECAST FOR FRIDAY AND

A 68 year old male drowned in Dumas Creek near Revere, Missouri when the pick-up truck he was driving was swept into the creek. The incident occurred at a low-water crossing when the swift current pushed his truck into the creek. The man was able to exit his truck about 50 to 75 yards from the road but couldn't get himself to safety. His body was found about a half mile downstream a couple of days later. The incident occurred sometime during the evening but the exact time is unknown. A large area of rain and a few thunderstorms occurred from about noon to 4 pm with rain amounts of 2 inches reported.
