Yes, Thunderstorms (Not Snow) Possible in Missouri End of January
It feels unusual to see a storm system consisting of thunderstorm with no snow setting its sights on Missouri at the end of January, but that is exactly the scenario that's developing as we get ready to wrap up the first month of the year.
We've seen computer models showing us that some type of weather system was likely to move across Missouri around the end of January. What originally looked like a snow event now looks like something very different as pointed out by weather personality Ryan Hall. First, check out the jet stream and how the area for expected storm development (the red and dark red) show Missouri is directly in the path coming up from the southwest.
This is what Thursday is now expected to look like with rain impacting practically all of Missouri.
That rain along with thunderstorms will continue throughout the day on Friday, too.
Note that this will be a storm system worth watching as northern Missouri will be right on the line where some of that moisture could become snow.
The Storm Prediction Center even has some parts of Missouri in expected areas of excessive rainfall during that time.
At this point, there does not seem to be an expectation that any of these thunderstorms will involve any real severity, but that does not mean that it can't happen.
Even the National Weather Service in St. Louis is now onboard calling for very heavy rain Thursday.
I have to wonder what this storm would have looked like if temperatures were 10 degrees colder. Since I don't enjoy seeing my snow shovel often, I'm really glad it doesn't look like we'll find out.
