Southwest KS Snow Jan 20th [3]

Filed under: General Weather & Forecasting — Mike U @ 10:41 am

Finally… the first 1" snow event in Dodge City…more on the way!  At work here, we have measured 1.5" as of 10:00am.  It started snowing around 5:30am, so we are averaging between one quarter and one half inch of snow per hour.  Looking at water vapor loop, the main upper low is still centered over southern New Mexico…and I expect us to be in ~0.5" per hour snowfall rates for much of the afternoon and this evening…. ending up with between 5 and 8" of total snow by early Sunday morning!  Will keep you posted…
