Above is my latest snowfall forecast that contains some model data along with current Doppler radar indications and ground observations. Notice that the position of the heaviest snowfall has been shifted southward into the immediate KC metropolitan area. Next is the winter weather watch/warning/advisory map.
Notice that the whole region is blanketed with advisories, with KC in the heart of the winter storm warnings. A winter storm warning is only issued when a major winter storm will lead to life-threatening travel situations. With snowfall rates of 1"+ per hour for a few hours during the evening commute, I can't stress enough how important it is to leave work early and change your travel plans to avoid commuting during this weather. The visibility will be poor and the roads will be slick, and extremely difficult, if not impossible, to drive on. I'll update as I find out more. Have a safe evening.
