Good Friday morning. Just a quick update on our weekend storm as it pushes into our area to begin the weekend. We are just one week off of a blizzard in Kansas and it's another close call on one for the Plains.
This is a very impressive storm that will have thunderstorms, some severe weather, and a HUGE dumping of snow for Nebraska. Kansas may actually get off pretty fortunate from this storm.
Tonight-early Saturday:
Thunderstorms are expected to skirt across central and eastern Kansas. While these are
NOT likely to be anything more than some thunder and lightning, small hail is possible. Rain amounts will easily top .50" for many areas, and some of you could end up closer to
1". Those amounts are forecast for areas basically east of a line from Russell to Great Bend to Medicine Lodge.
Weekend Snow:
There will be a tremendous amount of snow in Nebraska this weekend. A foot (or more) of snow will fall just north of us. And with winds gusting to 35 mph, could be some difficult or impossible travel weather.
Northern Kansas will get some snow too. In most cases, it will be a few inches, but locally higher along the Nebraska/Kansas line.
Monday Snow Chance:
This isn't anything we need to worry about. It's looking like cloudy skies, a few areas of snow flurries, and VERY cold air. Highs will likely be stuck in the 20s on Monday. Our first full week of December looks COLD.
Have a great weekend. Be safe out there.
