What happened

The episode as NWS SGF wrote it up.

A significant winter storms moved into the Ozarks with accumulating, relatively widespread moderate to heavy snow. Some banding resulted in varying accumulations over short distances. Highest snow totals occurred where snow bands set up, generally along and south of I-44 and especially near the Arkansas and Missouri border. Snowfall accumulations from 2 to 8 inches were reported across the region.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

.SHORT TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Issued at 140 PM CST Thu Jan 9 2025

Synoptic overview and current conditions: Water vapor imagery
and upper level analysis show the upper low south of the 4
corners region with a strong upper level jet(100-120kts)
southeast of the low from TX into northeast OK. Surface low was
located off the southeast TX coastline well to the south of us.
Regional radar was showing the northern edge of most of the snow
entering northwest AR and northeast OK, although some recent new
development since around 11 am was occurring over southeast KS.
Temperatures across the area were in the upper 20s to low 30s,
however the soundings remain supportive of all snow with cold
enough temperatures aloft.

Rest of the afternoon: Area of snow will continue to lift
northeast into the southwest portion of the CWA through the
afternoon and to near the US60 corridor by late afternoon and
early evening. Snowfall may be moderate to heavy at times and
should begin to accumulate due to the recent extreme cold
surface temperatures.

Tonight-Friday: Upper level jet will strengthen over the area
and upper dynamics are supportive of strong synoptic scale
lifting aloft and within the dendritic snow growth zone(minus 10
to minus 20 deg C). Soundings show fairly decent saturation
throughout most of the sounding tonight into early Friday
morning as well. There may be some banded snow that also
develops within a 850-600mb frontogenetic zone which would
support even higher snow rates. Our HiRes model QPF has
increased slightly from last nights values and our snow totals
have also increased slightly. Generally have 12-14 snow ratios
which is yielding about 3-5 inches of snow north of I-44 and 5
to 7 inches south of I-44. As a result of the increased snow
totals, we are going add some counties to the northern boundary
of the current winter storm warning which will now include
Joplin, Springfield, Marshfield, Houston and Salem. Temperatures
tonight will generally dip down into the mid 20s for lows. There
shouldn't be any drifting of snow with fairly light winds.

Snow should end from west to east, beginning Friday morning from
southeast Kansas to along the US 60 corridor and then the
afternoon in the east. We will continue the WS.W and WW.Y from
23z this afternoon through 00z tomorrow evening. Highs on Friday
will be in the low to mid 30s. Lows on Friday night should dip
back into the teens for most locations.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 140 PM CST Thu Jan 9 2025

Another frontal boundary is expected to move through the area
Saturday night into Sunday. Current model indications are for
any measurable precipitation with this front to remain north of
the area. Temperatures ahead of the front should warm into the
mid 30s to low 40s with lows in the low to mid 20s.

Behind the front we'll be dropping back into the teens on Sunday
night and highs only in the mid 20s to low 30s on Monday. The
cold temperatures will linger into Tuesday, but we should start
to warm back closer to normal readings by the middle to late
portions of next week as the upper trough shifts to the east and
we become more zonal aloft.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 1132 AM CST Thu Jan 9 2025

For the 18z TAFS, at the onset, we have VFR ceilings with mid
and high level cloud cover having already spread into the area
from the southwest ahead of the next storm system. Regional
radar trends and observations show the northern edge of the
precipitation(snow) beginning to shift into northeast OK as of
1730z, steadily shifting northeast. Ceilings will continue to
lower this afternoon with snow beginning at JLN by 21-22z and
SGF/BBG by 23-01z. Flight categories will initially drop into
MVFR as the snow begins, but it should not take long to drop
into IFR and then eventually LIFR at times during the late
evening/overnight and Friday morning. Surface winds should be
fairly light and variable.
