Back to back storm systems to impact area!

With March literally knocking on the door, a pair of storm systems are due impact the Forsyth Missouri area beginning on Friday, March the 28th with another storm system coming in late on Saturday, March the 1st!

Of the two system, the Saturday one will be the more potent of the two. Friday's system may end up being an all rain events for most everyone as a wide temperature gradient will set up across the region. Look for brisk winds and the possibility of some light snow or sleet developing depending on how fast everything sets up. This will be what the weather service likes to refer to as a 'quick hitter' that should be here and then gone rather quickly.

The second, and more potent system is due in our are on Saturday late afternoon to early evening. The NWS expects all of our region will be in the cold sector. Precipitation will then develop later on Saturday without question. However, it is the type of precipitation that is in question, at this time. Generally, we can generally expect to see a wintry mix of freezing rain, sleet and snow for much of the period that could extend through much of Sunday!
