Where is Katie Horny when we need her?

Looks bad to the north and northwest on Saturday!

I think she owns a plumbing company with her husband now.

I think the projected temps are close enough to 32 F that the normal treatment of the highways and primary roads will keep them ice-free not affect travel.

The December 17th ice storm was not much total precip but near zero temps so the roads were too icy and everybody in KC needed to stay home.

I think the biggest threat is enough total freezing rain to cause downed tree branches and power lines.

Looking like it might be enough to get out out of work for a few days with the girls.

****. From the NWS.

It seems like the main event is being projected as more Saturday and Sunday now as opposed to Friday and Saturday.

WTF is the HWY 60 corridor? Never heard of that highway.

I'm from Missourah... Show Me! Seen way too many predictions of doom and gloom from the weather center and then nothing. Also seen way too many predictions go the other way.

Since when have weather men ever been able to predict the weather?

For some reason their dire predictions during Chiefs and Royals games are usually spot-on. Main one to listen to is Lezak. At some point in next few days he'll probably sound confident and then we'll know.

Last night Lezak said he wasn't expecting any major event. Some slicks spots at worse.

Said it would be just rain on and off during the game.

That's more for southern MO. KC looking about the same from today's model runs and NWS forecasts. Just a little later start for the event--Saturday morning as opposed to Friday night.

I always get a kick out of the "Weathermen never get anything right" crowd. If your expectation is 100% accuracy a week out, your chances of being let down are high. They're really high. Take the info for what its worth, and plan accordingly. That's all a weather forecast is good for. I tend to agree that when Lezak starts getting a weather boner, its time to pay attention. He normally has a pretty level head when forecasting, but its impossible not to notice the guy is a huge weather nerd, so he gets excited when events happen.

I knew he wouldn't let us down.......

We cancelled our overtime for work this weekend. Supposed to be nasty. I would stay off the roads and airport unless you want to have a shitty weekend going into money's busy work week.
