Snow is falling...

A BLIZZARD WARNING remains in effect for most of the KC metro until 6AM Wednesday as the region prepares to grind to a halt with one of the biggest storms in decades on our doorstep. I've updated the snowfall forecast to reflect the latest trends, which suggest accumulations may be higher than expected in some locations, but the heaviest accumulations will be off to the east and southeast. I am now expecting most everyone here in KC to see 10" -12" of snow with locally higher amounts for those of you caught in thundersnow or heavier snow bands. Remember, this forecast can still change but as of right now I've curtailed my forecast for the immediate area based on recent model trends.

The most important thing to note about this storm is that the amount of accumulation is really just a number; anyone who receives at least six or so inches of snow will be impacted in virtually the same way because of the high winds tomorrow which will lead to white-out conditions. Once again, travel is not recommended tomorrow. I'll update with more information later.
