Amounts have as of this posting have been 2 inches and less- with the band of heaviest snow in a nearly east-west band from southern Johnson and northern Miami counties in Kansas- across southern Jackson and northern Cass counties in Missouri.
That band of heavier snow was slipping east and southeast into southern Cass- Lafayette & Johnson counties MO..
A second band of snow is northwest of a Jefferson county KS- northern Platte into Clinton and Caldwell MO areas. This area is moving northeast with a slow eastward drift.
It appears the least snow will be in the heavily-populated areas nearest Downtown KC-MO- from northeast JoCo and Wyandotte county KS across central and northern Jackson County- central and southern Platte and Clay counties in MO.. A maximum of 2 inches should be the storm total in this area.
In the 2 other banded areas mentioned above- 2 to 4 inches storm total seems reasonable.
At any rate- the more heavily-travelled highways and freeways throughout the Metro are wet- with patchy ice and snow right now. Lesser travelled roads unplowed are snow-covered.
Temperatures have been falling- in the lower 20's right now- and northeast winds of 10-20 mph makes it feel like it's around 10 degrees and the snow is blowing as well.
The snow should end from southwest to northeast Saturday afternoon.
Drive as usual- if you have the guts....
