... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 6 am CST Tuesday...
A Winter Weather Advisory for snow remains in effect until 6 am CST Tuesday.
* Timing: a cold rain has begun to changeover this morning to snow west of a St. Joseph to Maryville line. Periods of snow will be possible into the evening hours.
* Main impact: a heavy wet snow is expected to impact the Interstate 29 corridor... especially during the afternoon and early evening hours. Snowfall rates could locally exceed one inch per hour... resulting in significantly reduced visibilities and slushy to snow covered Road conditions. Accumulations of 3 to 5 inches are possible in the advisory area.
* Other impacts: warm roads may initially limit accumulation on Road surfaces but snowfall rates may be high enough to overwhelm those relatively warmer Road surfaces. Heavier snow amounts are more likely on elevated and grassy surfaces.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means that periods of snow will cause primarily travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow covered roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while driving.
