Slight Chance of Rain, Snow Possible with next Arctic Blast

A system that will bring another shot of arctic air to the Lakes Region also brings a slight chance of precipitation. 

According to the National Weather Service, a slight chance of rain is in the forecast for this afternoon and this evening which could change to snow prior to ending. Rachel Nelson of the National Weather Service says during an interview Wednesday on KRZK’s “Ozarks Now” program that any precipitation will be light and of short duration. This morning’s information from the weather service says any accumulation will be around half an inch and no additional travel impacts are expected.

While temperatures this afternoon will be back in the 40s, the front will bring in colder air overnight with highs Friday only around 30 degrees with temperatures in the mid 20’s Saturday. Wind chill readings Saturday morning will be below zero.
