Also, here is the Central Plains Loop (click to enlarge, then loop), can you find the Upper Level Low? The Snow is developing across Kansas with the heaviest,again,being north and west of KC. The Severe T-Storms which have cause major devastation in Arkansas, Tennessee continue to move east along the Cold Front. I'll try to get pictures tomorrow from those areas. Speaking of Pictures, send in your snow photos to: stafandt@earthlink.net.

The latest warnings,and advisories:


I-70 and North have a Winter Storm Warnings, I-70 and South have a Winter Weather Advisory. I do think however, that that Johnson County,KS,and Jackson County,Mo and few other counties along I-70 will be included in the Winter Storm Warning later today. We have a little break for now, then around 3-4pm, Freezing Rain,Sleet,and Snow will develop, and by around 7-8pm we should all have snow in the area, except for places down South like Harrisonville,Mo which might not see the changeover until around Midnight or so. The SPC has also issued the 1st High Risk of Severe Weather of the season for parts of Arkansas,Missourri,and Tennessee. So this storm system is very strong.

Stay Tuned for more updates!
