This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri
Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

A few pockets of light snow and sleet may develop late tonight
near and just east of the U.S. 65 corridor. However, no impacts to
roadways are expected.




.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday.

A winter storm system will affect the region from Friday into
Saturday evening. Mostly snow is expected across central Missouri
and the eastern Ozarks with a wintry mix of snow, light freezing

outlook area. Areas along the I-49 corridor from Joplin southward
will see mostly rain with a brief changeover to snow as

Snow accumulations of 4 to 7 inches are expected from the Lake of
the Ozarks region down to around Salem. A swath of 2 to 4 inch
snowfall amounts are expected from around Truman Lake through the
Springfield metropolitan area to around Bull Shoals Lake. Amounts
from a dusting to two inches are expected across far western
Missouri and southeastern Kansas.

A thin glaze of ice will also be possible along and south of a
Cassville to Willard to Conway to Eminence line.

Stay up to date on the latest forecast for any changes as the
storm system comes onshore in the western U.S. today.
