Winter Storm: Mar. 19/20 Update #6

Snow continues through the overnight hours and will likely continue for the Kansas City Metro before some subsiding occurs near 4-6am.  Snowfall accumulations of 1-2" are common across the metro region, with some higher amounts just north in areas of Leavenworth county and near St. Joseph, MO.  A brief period of thundersnow was reported and confirmed via ASOS reports of lightning just to the east of Topeka and continued into parts of Leavenworth county.

Been a long day and I aim to be up early in the morning to once again provide some live video of the Kansas City area.  With some light there will be some better views and hopefully a little better road conditions!  Keep track here for the latest updates on when the live streaming will begin and what locations I will likely be streaming from as the trowal axis of the low pressure system skirts by the Kansas City area.
