Both today and tomorrow look to be great temperature and overall weather-wise especially for January standards with highs in the low to mid 40s.

However; starting Saturday, temperatures look to take another plunge into the below average temperatures with highs in the lower teens.

Winter Storm WARNING has been updated, 3 to 5" of snow looks possible through the rest of the afternoon.

01/05/2025

The potential for snow still remains but totals will likely be much lower than forecasted due to excessive dry air invading our region.

Snow will be possible between now and around 8pm tonight still. Cold temperatures and 35mph wind gusts will be likely.

Radar currently says it should be snowing but it isn't, why? (explanation below)

Dry air!
Dry air is one of the main caveats that can greatly decrease and sometimes negate snowfall. Dry air is basically just low dew points in the lowest portion of the atmosphere. Dry air prevents snow from forming because snow requires moisture in the atmosphere to condense and freeze into snowflakes, so when the air is very dry, there is not enough water v***r available to produce snow.

However; even with this current dry air, we will still be getting snow fairly soon.

Snowfall is set to begin within the next hour for southern Iowa and even sooner for northern Missouri. It should continue steadily throughout the day and into the evening hours. 4-8" of snow is possible in southern Iowa within more like 6-12" in parts of northern Missouri.

Dry air is currently dominating southern Iowa's ability to have snow but the moist, snowy conditions are on their way north!

Within the next 1-3 hours the snow should push through the dry air and reach southern Iowa.

4-8" of snow is still expected throughout the day today into this evening along the IA/MO border.

The SREF (a short-range combination of models) continues to show a slightly more northward track than was shown yesterday which largely influences our potential snowfall totals.

Currently it shows our area recieveing around 8-10" which is a reasonable higher-end solution.

My current snowfall estimate for our area is around 5-10", especially with the continued trend northward on the last 2 model runs.

01/04/2025

Recent model runs just took a shift back north towards us 😬, will need to watch and see if this becomes a trend or is just a one run thing.

NWS has downgraded their forecast to 4-8" for this weekend, I am still thinking right around 6-7" will be most likely.

Models continue to fluctuate greatly so they will need to be watched.
