Winter Storm Update - track shifted

Heading into the weekend with another big winter storm on our hands. It's the same storm that dropped over 31" of snow on Flagstaff, AZ. That's more snow than some of us have had in 5+ years combined.

What's changed??
There aren't many, but one important piece of the weekend storm looks different and that is the track. It's now a bit farther north, which will push the heavier amounts a little farther west and north. We still expect a significant amount with this storm, but it should be farther west.

Here's a look at the map. This low pressure will go from north of Amarillo to Medicine Lodge, and then head up to KC. VERY strong winds are likely Saturday afternoon, so you'll want to be prepared for at least 3-4 hours of blizzard conditions in western Kansas.

THUNDER Chances too! - Given the impressive nature of the storm system, we will likely hear thunder over southwest, central, and south central Kansas. Remember, when you hear thunder and it's snowing outside, the amounts can pile up FAST!

Please be careful if traveling on Saturday. And good news... this is our last winter storm that we will have for awhile. So we can all catch our breath after this weekend is over.

Be safe.
