Winter Storm to Blanket Missouri and Tennessee with Snow, Sleet, and Freezing Rain

A powerful winter storm is set to sweep through Missouri and Tennessee this weekend, starting Saturday night and lasting into Monday morning. The National Weather Service in Saint Louis warns of significant travel disruptions due to snow, sleet, and freezing rain, despite slightly lower forecasted snow totals.

Ahead of the storm, temperatures will plunge, with lows in the teens and highs in the 20s and 30s across Missouri on Saturday. Dry conditions will persist during the day, but wintry precipitation will move into western Missouri by late afternoon.

The storm intensifies Sunday as a low-pressure system moves from the Texas Panhandle toward Tennessee. Heavy precipitation will transition from freezing rain to sleet to snow, impacting the entire region.
