Storm #1 brought a dusting to a couple of inches of snow to the metro as expected early today with higher amounts to the south. We will see a short break tonight into Saturday with storm #2 on the way for Sunday. Based on the lastest information we are in line for moderate accumulations from Sunday Morning through Monday Morning. The National Weather Service has already posted Winter Storm Watches from Omaha south to KC and southwest to Wichita. There are a lot of questions with this storm…mainly with the storm path and available moisture. I believe the storm will be potent enough and there will be enough moisture for significant snow across at least the south half of the viewing area. That means from Omaha to the south will have the best shot of several inches of snow. Stay tuned through the weekend for the latest information.
How close are we to the yearly snowfall record and could this storm push us over the top. I’d hate to get this much snow and NOT break the record.
Hello Ken,
By my records we are closing in on 50″. In 1983 we recorded 74.1″! However we have already broken many records with days of measureable snow on the ground.
We are so close to being in the Heavy band.
Wow the radar there is a circle around us that its not snowing got to love that dry air.
Hey CT, Ryan,
Some are hinting at a warm up towards the end of next week. What are your thoughts going into the first few weeks of March. Thanks.
