ABC – 17 — WINTER STORM WARNING NOW IN PLACE FOR MID – MISSOURI.
With temperatures in the 40s today, precipitation starts off as rain. As cold air moves in, the precipitation type will transition to a wintry mix tonight, with snow taking over on Wednesday.
Snow total expectations are climbing. A band of higher amounts oriented around a line from Mexico to Sedalia is starting to emerge as a likely scenario. Most likely amounts in this band will range somewhere in the 8 to 14 inch range. Still, as we are still several days from the end of this event, totals are subject to change slightly. SNOW MOVES OUT BY MIDDAY THURSDAY.
