We have the big, almost slushy, flakes in brookside. Everything is getting white.

***************

The streets are white on the Plaza!

Jeremy

Major flakes in N. OP.  Ground was covered quickly.

***************

The snow is here!  Updated snow map after 7am.  Not a huge change, but a little.

Jeremy:

I posted in the former Blog-we transitioned at about 5:00 here in SW Lawrence-snowing moderately and it is sticking to everything including roads. Will be interesting to see just how long this can hang together. If that Upper Level Low would just slow down a bit-like I said before-I think it saw an ice cream truck last night-man it really took off especially comapred to how long it just meandered around the SW!!!

Bill,

In about one hour we will know.  If this lasts until noon then there is going to be a lot of snow accumulation.  Finally, one bigger than forecast perhaps? 

Gary

Louisburg transitioned to all snow right at 6 a.m. The ground is now covered. Radar looked like we had a particularly heavy cell right over us when it shifted. Looks like lighter precip behind.

Thanks for the report.

Jeremy

Just switched to snow in North Lee's Summit just south of I-70 and 40 hwy at 6:24am.
Is this going to accumulate quick on the roads?

Snow in Smithville started right at 6:00am.  Ground is already all white.  Thermometer says we're sitting at 33 degrees.

Just woke up and see that it is snowing and the ground is covered.

the ground is covered in leavenworth and snowing big time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1/4 in. 152 and amity, streets covered as well

10 minutes ago in NE Lee's Summit it was all rain.  Now it's snowing and everything is turning white.  That was fast!

Grain Valley is now snow

Fort Osage area of Independence is now completely covered in white.  

Big gloppy snow flakes Spring Hill 6 am ground is covered but now at 6:55 none

almost white out conditions 152 and amity, huge flakes!!!!!!!!!!   This is awesome to watch

Here in Sedalia..The temps are rising.  When I went to bed last night it was 34 degrees.   I just checked and we are at 39 now.  Still all rain.   When will the transition occur here?

Snow covered in Independence.  The change over occurred about 6:15am and went to all snow about 6:35.

This was amazing, it just changed and we have a half inch! A 5:00 my field was pitch black with flood waters. Hopefuly it will stay as snow.

Big fluffy flakes started in midtown right at 6 am.  Still snowing fairly hard but the flakes seem to be getting smaller.  Looks like a Christmas card!

If it had been just a couple of degrees colder overnght, we'd have snow up to our butts right now.  

The snowflakes, at this time, in Independence are smaller, but the continuation of this for 4 to 6 hours would be a nice snowfall for once this year.

It makes it a mess for Sunday AM church services though.

Snowing here at 130th and State Avenue in Western KCK with .7 measured at 6:55 A.M.

Bryan

There is a Half inch 2 miles east of Platte City and It snowing hard.

These are the biggest snowflakes I have ever seen coming down in Parkville. 0.6 inches on the ground at 7. Does it look like it could snow for a long time?

got up at 5 and my yard was full of water i go back to bed and wake up at 7 and its snowing "another station said 1-2 inches for the kc metro area. yea ok unless this mechanism breaks down anytime soon

Greetings, all!  Northwest Lee's Summit, dense, wet snow falling straight down, about 0.5 inches at present time.  Ground saturated from overnight rainfall, quite slushy.  Be safe!

Good Morning again Gary, Jeremy, Brett, and Jeff!!

Still moderate snow in SW Lawrence with an inch on the ground!! I'm afraid to look at the radar or satelte again-I just want to watch it snow and pretend it will snow like this most of the morning LOL!!!

-----------------

Bill,

I don't think you have to pretend.  What a winter we are having.

Gary

Jeremy: LOL at the snow fort-if we can get 3-4 more inches with as wet as this is-yea-the snow fort/igloo project will be in full force!!!! LOL

Bill in Lawrence

Snow getting heavier here in Grain Valley, ground starting to turn white

is this system running out of steam or is there still alot go go through

About 1.25" rain total in the guage and it is snowing here in Sibley.

2 inches and building in N. OP.

How long does everyone think this snow is going to keep up.  Looking at the radar it does not look like it is going anywhere fast.  It is really coming down here near 45 and 435 in Platte county.

Nice, pretty snow here at 291 and 24.  We'll be off to Church in Liberty soon and I am hoping the roads aren't too bad...now or by noon.  Bulldog, please tell your favorite "Munchkin" I said BRAVO!

We're experiencing snush here in southeast Independence. Too warm for snow. And I was hoping to try out a new R/C float plane off of the snow covered tundra!
