.DISCUSSION...
Southeasterly winds pick up today as a rain/snow mix moves through
the region. Snow will mainly occur in Southern Illinois and
northern portions of Southeast Missouri this morning, with up to
two inches of snow possible along the Interstate 64 corridor in
Illinois. A changeover to rain is expected midday. A cold front
switches breezy winds to northwesterly for Sunday. Below normal
temperatures continue into next week with another wintry system
expected Monday night into Tuesday that has better chances for
accumulating snowfall across the Quad State.
