.UPDATE… Issued at 840 PM CST Sun Dec 25 2022

The forecast is largely on track for the overnight and Monday morning light snow. This evening`s adjustments were to nudge back onset time and increase PoPs Monday morning for a slightly slower end time. No changes to impacts from what has been messaged earlier, and that is a minor accumulating snow event occurring with very cold ground temperatures that will result in at least some locally hazardous travel conditions due to slick roads.

The well-defined, closed upper level wave of interest is over southwest Minnesota this evening and churning its way south- southeast. This path provides a glancing blow to the CWA of its warm advection late tonight and then its weakly defined deformation Monday morning and early afternoon. The warm advection ascent has been at first largely used to moisten a dry low-level atmosphere as seen on the 00Z DVN sounding, with much of the echoes from southwest Wisconsin through western Illinois as of 930 PM not reaching the ground. But as it moistens, snow does start and the leading edge of this is along the Mississippi River. Within the warm advection, we expect the general precipitation area to continue eastward expansion while the wave itself progresses south-southeast. This favors especially the southwest half of the forecast area overnight to see persistent light snowfall rates, especially as that feature somewhat pivots. Frontogenesis (f-gen) signatures within various layers in the lower to mid-levels within this zone are transient, so not a clear signature where persistent heavier rates may manifest themselves. In the favorable side of things, there is a dee Pdendritic growth zone (DGZ) or near-DGZ from the surface up to around 800 mb (~7,000 ft), as well as some steep lapse rates well aloft. With light winds in the sub-cloud layer, flake fragmentation will be limited as well. So could see some healthy ratios of near 20:1, just with minimal overall QPF.

For the post-sunrise part of Monday morning, forcing for ascent becomes weaker and less focused, but saturation in the DGZ remains deep in a synoptically-favorable area for some precipitation. So light accumulating snow to at times just flurries, maybe of a more off-and-on nature, should continue a majority of the morning and probably even the first half of the afternoon south of I-80. Total event accumulations of 1 to 2 inches still look reasonable across the western and southern forecast with less north and east. Impact-wise, this does overla Pa Monday morning commute, granted more reduced one than typical with the holiday. Will continue the Special Weather Statement and associated messaging for some slick travel, and encourage folks to plan for ample extra time and using caution Monday morning.
