Nov. 30-Dec. 1, 2024 | Clipper System

[snowlover2]

Surprised there wasn't a thread for this but then again it just started making a comeback. Looking like an I-70 and south clipper. Kind of reminds me of a clipper years ago that disappeared 5 days out only to show back up a couple days out and eventually dropped 4-6" along I-70. Not saying this one will drop that much though.

I am hoping for some accums. We have had a lot of nice snow showers here today.

I've been watching this one.  I have a kayak fishing tournament on the Ohio river Sunday.  Definitely looks like less than ideal conditions.

18z NAM appears a bit stronger but the north side pushed south a bit.

Welp, don’t think I’ll be glued to this one. Maybe next week snow chances will pan out. Otherwise, this cold will be crappy to endure without some. 

[StormfanaticInd]

Models are not showing it but I think there could another light accumulating snow on Monday 

[Central Illinois]

looks like a miss to the south for most us on this one.

Really don’t want this cold blast to be a complete whiff for many of us but there’s so much dry air aloft that it’s going to take a good slug of moisture to fix it.

For sure. I am hoping a miss here early in the month could lead to some bigger weather makers close to Christmas.

0z HRRR appears to be wetter and a little more north.

Mood flakes through Sunday

[SnowloverSid]

Snow was supposed to begin in St. Louis by 5 or 6 a.m.  So far, it is overcast without a flake.

[NWOhioChaser]

Air is finally saturated here to the point where we’re getting flurries from the fetch off of Michigan. Some light grassy accumulations, but they’re definitely mood flakes!☺️

Lots of dry air to overcome, radar down that way looking promising for you! 

[SnowloverSid]

We have had about two inches here in St. Louis, and the scenery looks pristine. I had not seen accumulating snow since the three-plus inches of February 16.
