A BLIZZARD WARNING has been issued for the Kansas City metro and areas to the south, southeast, and east. I'll update with a map of the exact counties later. Also, a WINTER STORM WARNING remains in effect for the entire central US region.
A BLIZZARD WARNING means that heavy snow and high winds are forecast over a prolonged period of time; with winds close to 40MPH at times. Visibility will be reduced to less than a fourth of a mile and travel will be impossible much of the day Tuesday. Avoid travel at all costs... being stranded in this storm is highly dangerous and potentially deadly.
As for accumulations, I'm still thinking much of the metro will see over a foot of snow, with much more in some locations, especially the farther south and east the location is. I'll post more information with an updated snowfall map later tonight.
For the rest of this evening, minor icing is possible with the freezing drizzle in the area. Be careful on untreated roads.
