6-10 inches. This is the model that was first to predict the November blizzard

Looking at the various computer models 5-8 inches looks like a possibility.

I was planning on driving up Friday night, but now I'm going to take Friday off and leave 1st thing Friday morning. I've already driven in a snowstorm for a Chiefs/Colts playoff game, would rather not do it again.

I studied meteorology quite a bit in college, and I pursue weather as a hobby now.

Basically the NWS is the true source of info, and of course they are only using models as well.

NWS currently has precipitation starting Friday morning in KC, and off and on through Saturday. The temps will be going up and down above freezing, so it's hard to decide on a precipitation type.

Best guess from them is 1-4 inches total, with the smaller totals near KC as of now. There could be some ice/sleet at certain points.

There is no Winter Storm Watch yet, but I would expect one soon if the models stay the same, or at the least a Winter Weather advisory, which is slightly less serious. I doubt a Winter Storm Warning is in the cards for this storm.

Yeah I'm hoping it's not that bad. Looking at two trips to KC Friday night and Saturday morning. Can't stay the night due to helping with tailgate load up here in Topeka.

A little snow or ice won’t effect the playing surface other than being a little wet. I remember when they were selling the renovation to the voters. That was a big selling point. The majority didn’t want that portable roof thing but did like the heated field idea.

JoeyChuckles 01-09-2019 05:20 PM

I just read the NWS forecast discussion from 3pm today, so a bit of an update to my previous post.

As of now, Looks like KC precipitation starting Friday afternoon as a rain/snow mix, changing to snow overnight. Most models have us above freezing, so they are lowering the snow totals as of now.

Also of note, NWS thinks most if not all accumulating precipitation will be done by noon Saturday, with just sprinkles/flurries after that.

Any precipitation is a horrible horrible thing for us. I don't care if you guys are comfortable, I care about how it will effect Mahomes and our passing offense.
