Big Storm Turning Toward the Plains
Ξ October 28th, 2009 | → | ∇ Weather |
Impressive snowfall totals along the Wyoming/Nebraksa border with 6-10″ on the ground by early evening and nearly a foot of snow from Alliance to Chadron. Couple the snowfall with 20 to 30 mph winds and it’s no wonder Interstate 80 was closed between Laramie and Cheyenne.
The storm is rounding the the bend near the 4 Corners region and turning northeast through Colorado to northern Nebraska before departing into Minnesota. The Tri-Cities will stay on the warm side of the storm as will central and eastern parts of the state. Custer County could see a little accumulating snow mainly in the western areas in the 1-3 ” range.
The faucet has now been turned on with rainfall now streaming out of Kansas northward, with heavier rain emanating from Phillips County into Harlan with tenth of an inch rainfall rates. Most of the rain be west of the Tri-Cities but gradually become more widespread eastward through the night with intervals of rain through the day tomorrow.
