Another snow chance this week

Welcome to Monday - hope the weekend was a restful one for you and you did get some time to enjoy the milder weather. Just about a month out from the official beginning of spring and winter fights on this week.

Overnight - Tuesday morning:

I don't expect this to be anything more than some sprinkles or light snow flurries, but chances are back in southwest Kansas. In most areas temperatures will be hoovering above freezing when there is some moisture coming down, so roads shouldn't be a huge issue. This area though continues with drought, so any precipitation is likely welcome.

Next main snow chance - Wednesday:

This is likely not going to be a big storm, but instead, several hours of steady light snow that will lead to accumulations. It won't be a blizzard or an ice storm. The winds don't look that strong and the moisture looks to be mainly in the form of snow - not a mixed setup.

It should begin early Wednesday in western Kansas and then gradually develop and spread east. Our temperatures won't be quite as cold as last week, but most of us will likely have 30s while it's snow. Our winds will be coming from the east, but those should stay below 20 mph during the storm.

Snow chances will likely carry over into early Thursday, but by then, we should be down to flurries with no extra accumulation. 

We will take another look at the data this afternoon, but my expectation is that western Kansas could be in the 3-5" amounts by the time Wednesday night rolls around. Farther east, amounts will be lower. 

Hurry up spring! Have a great day.
