Latest on the storm & a lunar eclipse

Our storm will slide through Friday night and be out of here by 9 a.m. Saturday morning. The good news is that will leave most of the weekend storm free WITH more hours of sunshine (something that has been hard to come by lately).

Snowfall forecast:

Again, not looking like very much for anybody in Kansas. The storm track is literally right over the Rockies, and 9 times out of 10, when they approach like that, we don't get heavy precipitation.

Tuesday:
The next storm arriving in Kansas on Tuesday (next week) will do the same thing. It will move right over Colorado and then spread very light precipitation over the central Plains. At this time (and it likely won't change), Kansas won't get much more than some sprinkles and flurries as it tracks through this area.

Lunar eclipse Sunday night!
That's right, at the end of the weekend, we will have a total lunar eclipse. The good news, you can check it out BEFORE you go to bed Sunday night. The bad news, it will be COLD! But here's hoping after the Chiefs win Sunday night, we will get to enjoy a Chief's red moon. Viewing times are listed on the graphic, but totality lasts for about an hour. Skies will be mostly clear. You'll be able to see the moon even if we do have some high thin clouds moving on through. Enjoy. We haven't had an eclipse to talk about in quite awhile.
