K.C. Metro-MetroRegion WEATHER: Winter Storm Warning In Effect



There has already been reports of sleet and freezing rain in north and northwest parts of Metro Kansas City within the past hour- as the entire MetroRegion is under a NWS-issued "Winter Storm Warning" through Saturday.


As much as a foot of snow could fall in or very close to Metro K.C. by the time the storm ends Saturday afternoon.

In addition to the snow- strong north to northeast winds will blow and drift the snowfall- and visibilities on roadways could drop to near zero in heavy snow bands.

There could well be "thundersnow" as well- thunderstorms dropping heavy snow.

Here are the latest satellite and weather radar images for the MetroRegion and the Central States.

This is a developing- potentially life-threatening situation. Updates- photos- videos and other information here on CSW....
