Get prepared to see some flakes!

Now, I’m not talking about people! Goodness knows we have enough of those around where I live in SW Missouri! No, I'm referring to snow flakes. Lots and lots of snow flakes as it may turn out.

That's the current thinking of the National Weather Service out of Springfield Missouri. Somewhere around one inch is possible over a wide area beginning sometime on Monday, December the 5th in the early hours. That is assuming it doesn't all melt as it lands on ground that is still fairly warm! The probability of this occurring stands at 40% as of this point in time.

Behind this cold front, that will pass through the Forsyth area late Sunday, will be a blast of rather frigid air, courtesy of our friends to the north! Darn those Canadians.

Followup: As of early morning Monday, December the 5th, it is becoming apparent that no snow will accumulate anywhere in the southwest Missouri corridor. Having said that, it was still a close thing. You have to give credit to just how good the weather guys have gotten over that past decade!

Followup: I was amazed to see a little bit of snow cover the morning of December the 6th! Tiz the Season!
