Central U.S. Winter Storm and Cold Air Outbreak 2011 February 1-2 [10]

Filed under: 2011 Feb 1-2 — Mike U @ 11:56 am

A classic mid-latitude cyclone maturing. I won’t type much on this post, just going to let the figure below do all the talking.  Needless to say, the virtual snow chase target of Columbia, MO I picked late night Sunday night is looking very good as per the current conditions and all that heavy snow still to come.  Blizzard or near-blizzard conditions are underway from Oklahoma City to Wichita to Emporia and things are getting bad in Kansas City.  Winds will only increase in intensity in Kansas City.

Dodge City, you ask?  -2F, -28F wind chill, very very light snow, and a total snowfall of about 0.3 to 0.5″ (that’s a guess looking out the window).
