UPDATE: Bullseye For Snow

Models Are Firming Up
Hey it's Friday! And, as we like to do before a possible Weekend of Weather, we want to make sure you're aware of any forecast updates. Fortunately (for us) there really isn't a lot to update, but we have a few refinements we would like to share.

Timing
I'm sure most of you are wondering, for travel or other reasons, what time the Snow is expected. While this is fairly subjective, we'll take a crack at this. (Please let us know how accurately this holds true!) It looks like Snow may start in the far South West side of the greater Kansas City metro around Noon on Saturday; some flurries may kick around before then. The Snow are looks to really ramp up between Noon and 3PM, holding steady through about 3AM. Snow should definitely be noticeably less by 6AM, holding to a lighter snow on through roughly dinner time.

Snow Accumulations
As always, this is definitely the hardest part of forecasting. We're trying to stick to our guns though, and are quoting amounts pretty close to 5" wide spread across our region. In case you still wanted some pretty pictures, so here's the 3 main models we're looking at for reference, plus the Snow Plume, and also the NWS update from this morning.

So, the models aren't entirely in as much agreement as they were, but they're still relatively close. At this point, go ahead and expect at least one more update from us here at Twisted Skies tomorrow morning, before lunch.

That's it for now. Just be sure to keep an eye on things so that you're always Weather Aware. Got any questions about anything we discussed in this, or any Blog entry? Please just e-mail us directly at: TwistedSkiesChaseTeam@gmail.com
