Pretty fascinating storm.
I'm more worried about losing power due to the high winds than anything.

Put away the pool inflatables this evening...

Blizzard warning issued for KC area; goes into effect Tuesday night

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The National Weather Service has issued a blizzard warning lasting from 9 p.m. Tuesday to 5 a.m. Wednesday.

The warning includes parts of northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri, and it includes Wyandotte, Johnson, Platte, Clay, Jackson, Harrison, Daviess, Clinton, Caldwell, Ray, and Leavenworth counties.

A powerful storm system will move across the region Tuesday through Wednesday, bringing multiple hazards to the area.

It will get colder and very windy after midnight on Wednesday. The National Weather Service said we could have 60-70 mph wind gusts, creating blizzard conditions.

The older I get, the more I hate the wind.

****.

Ummm.

Don't come visit me.

If any of these guys came out here their only decision will be rope or shotgun.

This schizo weather is extremely gay.

Every time the wind blows over 10mph I ask myself what my ancestors saw in this god forsaken state and how they put up with it with far less technology than i have.

Cant have a nice day in Kansas without 25mph+ wind in the spring/fall.

Good thing the ground is soft and saturated with moisture.

I read the book Cow People by Frank Dobie who is a really cool author of the old west. One of the stories mentioned a lady in Kansas (early settler) that blew her head off with a shotgun and the note she left read "Can't stand listening to the wind anymore"

Blizzard warning now from MN down to Kansas and Missouri

Something you can’t unhear: the wind blowing at certain speeds sounds just like ocean waves.

Remember the mini series Centennial. The lady killer herself and her family during the dust bowl becuase of the wind and dirt everywhere.



There are schools closing for tomorrow already, and we have not received snow yet.

Guess I'm weird, but I love the sound of high winds. Obviously would prefer no one gets hurt or suffers structural damage but when it's nice and windy and those things aren't occurring, I'm in. Caveat is I need to be indoors hearing it. **** being outside when it is really windy.

Mother nature off her meds again. This is stupid.

Warming up the chain saw for tomorrow:( I am glad I have a fire place...

Around 6 inches of snow--some areas to the S and E had more.

Wind was good.

We had an Async day of learning but others cancelled. We do not have a lot of busses, most families and kids drive. So a lot of private schools do ASYNC days, so the kids do not have be on the roads.

I am waiting for the plows to go though before I clean the my and my neighbors driveway. (the one I like-60F) She does not need to do it.

Still have work to do. Get the taxes together. Correct papers.

Roads around KC are just shit awful. People off the road everywhere.

I am in Butler heading North. Roads spotless so far.

A **** ton of rain before snow and cold is a bad combo.

Someone turn off the wind please. Or at least bump it down a few notches

The posts I saw are a few hours old. Hopefully the conditions have improved since. I ain't going anywhere today, so good luck to you and everyone out there in it, lol.

That ****ing arctic wind, man. Just flash froze everything.

Wild to think we're going to be in the 70s by Monday.

I drove home in the shit last night, it went from just annoying rain to this big wet sticky snow in the snap of a finger.

Roads perfect in Harrisonville

Liars

Stop texting and driving through winter conditions, moran retart

Pretty brutal drive in the morning this time.

Im watching a movie. Be quiet. Car drives not me.

There are no winter conditions right now.

Grandview.

Roads are immaculate.

Absolutely beautiful roads here in Overland Park. Great job by road crews.

Cleaned off the driveway and the sun broke out

Score

80mph winds outside of Garden City, KS

I am not doing the math---but think of the psi on that truck

Gonna be with the Beatles with this one - let it be.

Got a couple of inches I'd guess. Now they're calling for a couple more Thursday night.

nature put it there, nature will take it away

With help from our asshole plow drivers

This has been the most schizophrenic winter I can remember, its either ten below zero and blowing snow, or a balmy 50-60

Praying for a quick and warm spring like we had around here in 2012, it hit 80 on St Patties and never dipped below 70 after that... farmers hated it because we had a terrible drought that year, but thats why they have insurance

We had that shit here yesterday and a shitload of rain. Thankfully all the tornadoes were south and west. I went out this morning and wandered the property and was shocked I have no trees down. Pines are bad about ground soaked and high winds.

Fiery Inferno with partly locusts on Friday

Have you given away your Tesla like Elvira yet?

Elvira? Don't know who that is.

Love Tesla. Great company.

Ok

Airport clocked 87.

That shit is just awful. Especially if it doesn't come with rain.

Are some truck drivers mentally reeruned?

I know the answer, but seriously.

YAP. 3-5 here

3:45 am update - 35 degrees and mostly still rain. Truck windshield free of snow in the driveway. Calling for an inch and a half now.

It's that time of year again! 81 degrees for a high today and then...

It is going to be one crazy system.
Keep an eye on the weather today.

Stay safe man. It doesn't look like the snow is going to make it this far south but we are right in the crosshairs for the nasty stuff tonight.

I'd take a storm. All I get is god ****ing wind.

We just can't afford any more damage. Insurance companies are dropping people like flies around here.

Yeah. And I'm paying for it. Because Iowa is the only thing that matters in the Ag industry. :cuss:

/sarcasm obviously, but yeah, Insurance and me are at odds.

High of 77 today. Rain moving in, maybe some t-storms, switching to snow, accumulations maybe an inch. 73 for st. Paddy's day Monday. Nother storm come Wednesday.

C'mon man, gotta dry up enough to get da boat outta storage, too muddy. Headed to Oklahoma paddlefishing two weeks from today.

We got 6" the other day........between rain drops. Thats how we measure rain now.

First wave on the map. Expected to get worse as it move E/NE.

Some strong cells appear to be developing right around KC.

Yea it looks like evening outside at the moment...

Sorry to hear some of you are facing an awful storm, but man its glorious here in west central Il... 80 with a little bit of wind, have all my windows open soaking it up

This kind of early and warm spring only happens around here once in a blue moon, last time was 2012

Max wind gust in Tulsa of 69. :drool: Currently 41 mph, and fires breaking out everywhere to the west. Power outages showing up also.

Yeah, it's a freakishly warm 80 here as well. Had to turn the A/C on. Already windy as hell, too. Tonight should be fun.

AC?!!
Already?!!

Bro open those windows and get some fresh air blowing through your pad, it'll cool you right off its awesome

It's 79 here with 40mph winds. From the looks of the radar, I'm guessing it's going to stay west and South of us for the most part. We are barely in the watch area. That would be right in line with the mesoscale discussion Displaced posted a couple of hours ago.

I want to go for a run on the trail but Im afraid a tree will fall and squash my ass.

All our windows have vertical blinds, and on a windy day they blow so bad that I have open them completely and then tie them together. Also, my den has a south facing window, and if I open the blinds the sunlight hits my monitor screen to the point that I can barely see anything. Plus, my marriage is basically my wife downstairs yelling shit up at me and me yelling "WHAT?" in response, and nobody walking outside wants to hear that. Throw in three cats who like to tear the shit out of the screens, and I pretty much keep the windows closed. :D

My brother just got evacuated from a wildfire in Oklahoma. Man... I'm not a religious person but I pray everyone will be okay.

Yeah, shit happening by Omaha now. Coming straight north.

Go Whiskey.

I'll delete my post. Don't want any of our resident douchebags crying about it.

Like I care

my garbage cans have flipped over three times today LMAO

Talk about bad timing.

Keep them in the garage like a civilized person...

It's garbage day, moron.

I'm not the one cleaning my trash up off the ground...
