Accumulating snow will move into northern portions of the forecast area early Thursday morning and spread southeast across the region through the day. Two to 6 inches of snow is expected, with most of that snow falling in few hour period at any given location. Also, strong gusty winds will produce blowing and drifting snow conditions. Uncertainty remains in the exact snowfall amounts expected across southeast MO & portions of southwest IL, and will hinge on how quickly surface temperatures cool below freezing.
