Euro from Chicago Storm:

24hrs: 1004mb SLP in E. Texas.

Heavy precip across TX/OK.

30hrs: Sub 1004mb SLP in E. Arkansas.

Nice hit from OKC to KC.

36hrs: 996mb SLP in far SE. Missouri.

Nice hit from C. Illinois down into E. Kansas.

Sounds like it didn't budge much.. Once it locked on.

I'm in Conway, MO. Looking at the BUFKIT there is a site just outside of town labeled P#H. For the 12Z GFS Cobb output it is showing 30.9 in of snow! Am I reading that right? Wow!

It's overdoing amounts, may want to cut that in half. Maybe a little more snow than just half though.

Seems like the media is concentrating on the ice. 12-18 in of snow in this area can be devastating. Roof collapses, power outages and no way to get anywhere. At least in the bad ice storms we've had, the roads were for the most part clear and people could evacuate to somewhere with power. My husband is the manager for the Webster Co and Ava ambulances and has been working on emergency plans for the last few days. Ambulances are not off road vehicles!

Wichita updated forecast discussion:

We are strongly considering upgrading far southeast Kansas counties to 
a Blizzard Warning for later tonight through Tuesday night given 
prognosticated intense snowfall rates/amounts and halacious drifting 
expected. We are coordinating with surrounding offices to our 
northeast...east...and southeast. Snowfall rates/amounts will be 
lesser further west/northwest into central/S-cntrl Kansas and going 
headlines looking reasonable there.

Its the opposite here in my town. The roads are horribly taken care of in snow or ice :( . We are the last road on the edge of town with only a few houses on it and it just seems they dont even bother or care about this road. We complained last time cause we couldnt get out cause the end of this road is a pretty steep grade. They finally came and plowed it after many complaints from us and the neighbors lol. But yea 12-18" of snow will cripple the area and that freezing rain below the snow. Its just going to be awfull.
