We got about 2-3 inches here, I think. Not too bad though. No ice, and the roads and lots seemed to be easily plowed today.

Piss on this. Seriously.

ROFL

Weather bomb hitting NS today, were expecting 20-25 cm's Sunday here in NL

glad it missed us.

What is cm's in english?:D

Hopefully this ARGH misses as the last one did:

That old snatch, Mother Nature, seems to be pissed off around here again as well. I looks like we're in for it, at least for the next few days.

PS: this is the map before that, obviously, the trend is there...
http://wxcaster4.com/nam/CONUS1_MESO...CHERA_72HR.gif

That one is showing us in the middle of a 18-20" band of snow. Surely that can't be right, can it?

http://grib2.com/gfs/CONUS_GFS0P5_SF...-SNOW_69HR.gif

Latest GFS model has KC in a more 12-14 range,

If anything just expect Ice and roughy 6 inches, but its capable of a lot more if this verifies.

I think that's right... every weather person I've seen on facebook and twitter is talking about this system. Don't know if it'll be quite that bad but it's apparently a beast. I guess one of the computer models this morning said on it's current forecast track, Chicago would get 38 inches of snow.

http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/wwd/day3_psnow_gt_12.gif

Probability of greater than 12 inches, is 10% for KC 40% for parts of MO.

its trending to a big event. Like i said, wouldnt be surprised with a 4-12 range in the metro proper with bigger amounts to the East.

We're so hosed. Quick, stock up on groceries and get ready to camp out at the house.

This ****ing sucks.

8 to 12 inches of snow in St. Louis this week. Supposed to be the biggest snowfall(I think) since the 1980's. Shit just got real.

:facepalm: that will be the story line...

that being said... winter stories across the area:

I'm stocked up on food, I just hope the electricity stays on. If their predictions are correct it's 50/50 that my power goes out. Suckage!

So the In-Laws have been with us down here in SA the past few weeks....they were supposed to leave tommorow but just bumped up their flight to tonight to avoid this.

70 and Sunny here today...

Supposed to be 20's and Cold when they land in KC tonight around 10.

Needless to say, they are not very happy right now...

PS: Blizzard Watch:

IMPACTS…VISIBILITIES UNDER A MILE WITH SLIPPERY ROADS MONDAY
INTO TUESDAY. SIGNIFICANT BLOWING AND DRIFTING WITH BLIZZARD
CONDITIONS TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. VISIBILITIES NEAR ZERO
WITH 4 TO 8 FOOT DRIFTS.

NWS in Springfield says we could have a repeat of 2002 when we recieved 12″ to 16″ of snow and 1/4″ to 3/4″ of ICE. Right now they are forecasting 6 to 12 S of I-44 and 8 to 14 N of I-44, w/ice accum. of .25 to .75.

Gary Lezak gets a woodie reporting funky weather situations.

That limp wrist forecasted a total of 13" for the entire Winter for KC.

Sunny and 66 here. I'm sitting on my deck in short sleeves and bare feet.

I think we already passed that and if we get more than that it in 1 one storm Chs, 4, 5, and 9 will have a field day.

:spock:

You want to trade weather?

Not today. This is glorious.

This just came in....upgraded the whole damn thing...

PRACTICE YOUR WINTER SAFETY RULES...KEEP A FLASHLIGHT...SHOVEL...FOOD AND WATER IN YOUR CAR IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS DURING THIS STILL DEVELOPING WINTER STORM. IF YOU ARE TRAVELING TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...BEGIN TO MAKE ALTERNATIVE PLANS NOW.

I am not looking forward to this. Here is the warning for Central MO.

Statement as of 3:56 PM CST on January 30, 2011

... Winter Storm Warning in effect from 6 am Monday to noon CST
Wednesday...

The National Weather Service in St Louis has issued a Winter
Storm Warning for snow... sleet and... and freezing rain... which is in
effect from 6 am Monday to noon CST Wednesday. The Winter Storm
Watch is no longer in effect.

* Timing... a wintry mix of light freezing rain... sleet and snow
will develop by Monday morning and continue in waves through
Monday evening. The wintry mix will change to snow late Monday
night and become heavy at times Tuesday and Tuesday night.

* Accumulations... snow accumulations of of 12 to 18 inches are likely.
Ice accumulations will range from less than 1/10 of an inch in
northeast Missouri to around 2/10 of an inch in parts of central
Missouri.

* Winds... northwest winds of 15 to 25 mph will occur Tuesday
night and Wednesday with gusts to 40 mph.

* Impacts... extremely hazardous Road conditions could limit travel
for days.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Storm Warning means that 6 inches or more of snow is
expected. The rapid accumulation of snow will make travel
extremely difficult... if not impossible. If travel is necessary...
make sure to exercise caution. Begin your travel with a tank full
of gas... and carry a winter storm kit which includes a shovel...
flashlight... cellphone... and blankets of extra warm clothing.

Strong and gusty winds will combine with snow already on the
ground to produce blowing and drifting that will frequently reduce
visibilities to one-quarter mile or less at times. Snow on grassy
areas will likely blow over roadways... partially covering or
further blanketing the pavement. Snow drifts will likely form near
structures such as homes... cars... or trees and could become
significantly deeper than in areas exposed to the wind and away
from structures. As a result... travel will become hazardous and
motorists should plan for a slower than normal trip... and be on
the lookout for sudden drops in visibility as well as drifting
snow that may impede travel.

Time for Katie to STORMGASM!!!!!

12-18 inches? Damn...

I'm hoping we'll be on the edge of this in KC...

nlm :D

Lezak is predicting 10-13 inches for KC metro.

Ch. 41's blog is full of posts from snow haters accussing the snow lovers of wanting to see deasth and mayham from this storm.

Was watching Fox 4 in KC and they are saying 12-18 inches here in Clinton. **** me

I would say that's where we will be too. Sucks for business.
Posted via Mobile Device

This storm is going to shut down a lot of towns.

Sucks for life as well.

This Storm is going to end civilization as we know it.

Signed, Lezak and Horner

Is there a boy scout merit badge for shoveling snow?

If so, I've earned that one x3's over this season already.

14"-18" forecasted for Mid-MO.

My wife has to drive to Tulsa tomorrow morning and then back in the afternoon. Is weather going to be a concern for her? Anyone in SW Missouri and Oklahoma that can chime in?`

Knowing the midwest, you guys will probably get a dusting.

we get around ok no matter what.......
Posted via Mobile Device

Lezak says he hopes to get 10-12 inches real soon.

<iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="640" height="510" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oShTJ90fC34?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen></iframe>

I live two hours west of Tulsa and our storm isn't supposed to be here till tomorrow evening.

Scratch that. They changed it to start winter mix in the morning.

When is this damn thing supposed to start?????

I just hope I can get to work tomorrow, grab my laptop, get back home and work from home for a few days. I seriously considered taking the laptop home Friday but looking at the forecast Friday afternoon it looked like nothing would happen until Tuesday.

Guess we need to update the thread title to round 3.

You should probably bring an air mattress and pillow with you to work. You may be stuck for a while. :D LMAO






j/k

I read Wichita, is suppose to get 9"-14" starting tomorrow. I'm praying for a blizzard, wouldn't it be fun if you couldn't even open the front door? Jump out of the upstairs windows, just to play in the drifts.


lol...yeah right, that would suck! Kids would love it though.

And I get to try to fly out tomorrow. JFC!!! This is three trips in a row that I'll bet will be F'd up by the weather! Let me guess, nobody will show up early in the AM to "warm up" the insides of the plane (Yeah, that one's on Delta), and nobody will check the deicing truck tonight to make sure they're ready to go in the AM (that one's on Delta and American Airlines)... Oh, and for that American Airlines ground crew that doesn't notice the "leak in the nose cone" while the plane is on the ground for 2 hours --- KMA, you suck! I'll start whining now, because when it all starts tomorrow, they'll all claim it's all about safety and not that they don't know how to F'n plan ahead!! Airline folks are pretty-much all bums! And the TSA a$$holz are worse!!

What really ticks me off is that I have a dental appt Tuesday morning that was rescheduled from the last snow storm we had. I'm going to be pissed if I show up at their office the the hygienist is way late or can't make it in.

By the way, you have to hope I can make it in tomorrow night. Those roads are going to be a bitch.

Wow....not looking forward to this....This is about 1 hr. south of Sunny and 70* Olathe.


* SNOW ACCUMULATIONS... OF 9 TO 14 INCHES ARE LIKELY ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS FROM MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. ACCUMULATIONS OF 6 TO 8 INCHES ARE NOW FORECAST FOR THOSE PARTS OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS ALONG AND EAST OF I-135.

* ICE ACCUMULATIONS... AROUND ONE QUARTER INCH ARE POSSIBLE FROM THE FREEZING DRIZZLE LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING.

* WINDS... WILL INCREASE FROM THE NORTH BETWEEN 20 AND 30 MPH WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 40 MPH ARE LIKELY TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT.

* IMPACTS... THE FREEZING DRIZZLE WILL RESULT IN LIGHT ICE ACCUMULATIONS ON EXPOSED SURFACES AND UNTREATED ROADS. HEAVY SNOW AND BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WILL MAKE DRIVING DANGEROUS FROM MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE STRONG NORTH WINDS MAY RESULT IN A BLIZZARD TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH NEAR ZERO VISIBILITIES. DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS OF 10 BELOW TO 20 BELOW ARE LIKELY BY TUESDAY NIGHT.

That's my goal as well. Get in early to make sure I avoid any issues. The laptop is the key though!

Just heard Blizzard Warning probable.

Spring is not far off now that Feb is hear. I cant wait to go play

WalMart was busier than usual for a Sunday night, then for the first time ever I walked into a Chipotle that had zero customers inside.

I guess this is it, huh?

We're all going to die. :sulk:

So I live in Maryland, and we're getting predictions of sleet and freezing rain from tomorrow night straight through until Wednesday.

The thing about Maryland is that any amount of snow, let alone freezing rain which is far worse, turns every driver here into a paranoid, petrified buffoon. The place is over-reaction central. Earlier this year, they shut down schools for two days for one inch of snow.

And now we're getting ice for three days. **** it, I'm staying home.

shit parts of north central mizzo & 1/2 of Iowa could get over 2 ft they just said.

Katie said it could be bad.

Rep for Katie since nobody understands what happened to rep.

10:30 NWS Update says most locations in MO that are going to get snow can expect at least a foot (except in the NW corner).

Lastest GFS forecast

http://grib2.com/gfs/CONUS_GFS0P5_SF...-SNOW_57HR.gif

Just saw that. Looks like we're going to get pummeled. Ahhh well...at least we're in good company.

EDIT ****ers
God that is one hell of a storm

Jesus ****ing Christ.

Welp, I guess I better go buy that ****ing ball cock now, rather than waiting.

(FML).

**** this shit.

Looks like a big one. Travel safe everyone. May the idiots who can't drive miss you with their slides and fishtails. Im digging in and not goin anywhere.

Not much snow expected here. Mainly freezing rain/ice. An inch or more possible. **** thi shit. I really need to move to Florida...

I saw a ton of salt trucks this morning... just DUMPING salt... so at least maybe they are ahead of the game this time!

This. I actually really enjoy getting snowed in. I can work from home in this kind of weather though...take a break in the afternoon to go sledding with the kids.

Don't worry, it'll dissapate.

My weather forcast here in Tampa.....Today, 71 and sunny. Tuesday, 75 and sunny.
