Overview
Surface low pressure to our south and an upper level system combined to bring a mix of Wintry weather across the Ozarks. Most of the area received rainfall throughout the evening of the 22nd, with a period of freezing rain prior to the changeover to all snow after midnight. The primary snow band set up along the Interstate 44 corridor from southwest into east central Missouri where 1 to 2.5 inches of snowfall occurred. The warm ground kept the ice from glazing on the roadways, but a glazing of ice did occur in some locations on elevated surfaces. |
Rain/Snow/Ice
Much needed rainfall occurred ahead of the snow across the area. Heaviest rain occurred along the I44 corridor, where over an inch of rain fell.
Rainfall eventually changed over to all snow after midnight from west to east with the most snow occurring along the I44 corridor. A band of 1 to 2.5 inches of snow occurred there.
