Here is something Brian Stone, director of county emergency management is sending out. Also, the the NWS is calling for blizzard like conditions in oklahoma tomorrow. ..
Here is what Brian sent.
We recently completed a conference call with the NWS about the upcoming storm. Below is the graphic with current snowfall predictions:
The snow is anticipated to begin tomorrow morning (6am timeframe approximately) and last through tomorrow night. It is expected to be a fairly constant snow with accumulations as seen above.
High winds (30mph with gusts up to 40mph) can be expected in places. Wind chills will drop to dangerous levels Tuesday night into Wednesday. The snow is not expected to create major issues on power lines or trees (mainly due to high winds). Drifting snow is a concern and could be up to 4-6’ in southeast Kansas.
The good news is that this is not expected to be an icy event. The majority of liquid moisture is predicted in far southeast Kansas near the Kansas/Missouri/Oklahoma corner and then areas further east. While some icing is still possible, and elevated surfaces could be slick, a major ice storm is not predicted.
