12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. |

SHORT TERM. (Today through Thursday night) Issued at 310 AM CDT Tue Mar 31 2020
An upper level system moving toward MO/AR continued to produce widespread rains from the Ozarks to the lower Ohio and lower/mid Mississippi Valley regions. The system will continue to move east today over the region. Rains will continue through the morning, then end from west to east into the afternoon hours. In fact some return sunshine is possible over southeast MO into west KY and southern IL. There is still a considerable amount of cloud cover back into the Plains. This is something we will have to monitor. Highest PoPs today will be across southeast MO, the southern tip of IL and west KY. Only slight chances of light rain or sprinkles up along the I-64 corridor.
Tonight, high pressure will move across the area resulting in cool temperatures, and possibly some frost, something we haven't seen in a while. Lows will be in the mid to upper 30s. Dry weather will continue Wednesday through Thursday. Weak return flow, and a mid level wave may produce some showers across southeast Missouri toward daybreak Friday.
LONG TERM. (Friday through Monday) Issued at 310 AM CDT Tue Mar 31 2020
Weak upper level ridging will cause slow progress of an approaching cold front, and this results in model disagreement of timing of the onset of associated showers Friday into Friday night. We will see just slight chances across our west half of counties Friday morning, with Friday afternoon primarily dry. Shower chances will gradually increase from west to east Friday night into Saturday, and with some minor instability just ahead of the front, included slight chances of thunderstorms on Saturday for much of our area. GFS is faster than the ECMWF and has our area dry by late Saturday night, while the ECMWF keeps showers going Saturday night and even lingers them into Sunday morning in our eastern counties. Model blends seem to lean toward the slower solution and have been trending slower, thus continued slight shower chances through Sunday due to low confidence in model timing.
Went with dry conditions Sunday evening, then models show a mid level trof approaching the middle Mississippi valley late Sunday night into Monday. Onset timing of showers is somewhat in question Sunday night, but models are in good agreement showing widespread precipitation on Monday, and went with good chances through the day.
Temperatures will remain above seasonal values through the extended, with highs 5 to 7 degrees above normal, and lows 9 to 12 degrees above normal.
AVIATION. Issued at 609 AM CDT Tue Mar 31 2020
Rain will continue mainly south of a KCGI-KOWB line through the morning, with the activity across west KY early this afternoon moving east and out of the area. Mainly VFR cigs through the day, though brief MVFR cigs possible southeast MO into west KY. Dry weather tonight, with VFR conditions. Winds will become north 6 to 12 kts, with some gusts up around 20 kts possible this afternoon. Wind speeds will drop tonight.

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases.

In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
