| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm brought hazardous conditions to southeast Missouri. The precipitation type was primarily heavy sleet at the beginning of the storm, then freezing rain became the primary precipitation type. One-half to one inch of sleet accumulated rather quickly, followed by around one-quarter inch of ice. Roads became slick and very hazardous. Numerous accidents were reported. The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported several dozen slide-offs or crashes in southeast Missouri. Interstate 55 southbound was closed near the 109 mile-marker in Cape Girardeau County due to a vehicle crash. In Dexter, a driver was injured when his car crashed into the side of a train. Isolated power outages occurred due to small branches falling on power lines. About 700 utility customers were without power in Stoddard County. A more widespread power outage affected Sikeston after a main line that ran into the city came down. In Dexter, there were two roof collapses due to the accumulated weight of snow and ice from successive February winter storms. A large part of the roof of a strip mall collapsed, and a gas station roof collapsed. The weight of snow and ice also brought down an awning of a gas station in Sikeston. Several east-to-west bands of light to locally moderate precipitation advanced slowly northward in response to the arrival of warm, moist air in the low levels. Strengthening of a southerly low level jet occurred ahead of a 500 mb shortwave impulse emerging out of the central Plains. Convective enhancement of precipitation rates was observed, including heavy thundersleet at Poplar Bluff and Greenville. After the precipitation changed to rain, the combination of snowmelt and rainfall produced localized street flooding. |
