Stoddard County, Missouri - The US Weather Service out of Paducah, Kentucky issuing some concerns about Winter Weather possible later in the week.  At 4:17 PM CST SUN DEC 1 2013

A Special Weather Statement and a Hazardous Weather Outlook Statement have been issued.

...WINTER WEATHER IMPACTS POSSIBLE LATER THIS WEEK...

FORECAST MODELS SEEM TO BE CONVERGING ON A SIGNAL THAT COULD POSSIBLY BRING A WINTRY MIX OF PRECIPITATION THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.


VERY COLD...CANADIAN AIR IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE THURSDAY

BEHIND A STRONG COLD FRONT. AS THIS DOME OF COLD AIR SETTLES IN...MOISTURE FROM THE SOUTHWEST WILL CONTINUE TO STREAM IN ALOFT. THIS COULD SET THE STAGE FOR A PROLONGED PRECIPITATION EVENT OVER PORTIONS OF THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. THE PRECIPITATION WILL START OUT AS ALL RAIN WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT THURSDAY...BUT COULD TRANSITION OVER TO FREEZING RAIN...SLEET AND OR SNOW THURSDAY NIGHT OR ON FRIDAY.

IT IS WAY TOO EARLY TO SPECULATE ON SPECIFIC AMOUNTS OF WINTER PRECIPITATION...AS THE SYSTEM IS STILL ABOUT FOUR DAYS AWAY. THE TIMING OF THE COLD AIR AND THE LOCATION OF THE HIGHEST PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS REMAIN UNCERTAIN. HOWEVER...CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT SOME TYPE OF WINTER WEATHER EVENT WILL OCCUR IN OR CLOSE TO OUR FORECAST AREA LATER IN THE WEEK.
