Help us track the major weather change tonight across the FOX 2 viewing area!

The FOX 2 Weather team says a powerful cold front is sweeping from west to east Saturday night. This cold front will bring an almost immediate 20-30 degree temperature drop along with a round of fast moving thunderstorms.

Behind the front, along with dropping temperatures, winds will gust from the west at 30 to 40 mph at times. As the temperature drops below freezing, there will be a brief period of time where enough moisture may be around to get some sleet and brief bursts of heavy wet snow. Accumulations, if any, will be light...and mainly confined to areas along and northwest of I-44 in MO and west of I-55 in Illinois.

Help us track these fast changes by posting temperatures, precipitation type (snow, sleet, freezing rain, etc) and how strong the winds are in your neighborhood. Are trash cans blowing down the street? Limbs coming down? Any of the snow sticking? Let us know so we can pass that information along to our viewers. You are a valuable part of the Fox 2 weather team!
