Like I said earlier it was 51 here. Cooled off to 47 now. Nice to see snow to the north and south of here. Again. At least it's consistent.

Pretty good band around KC and just south .... if that can hold together and with the timing after dark that will likely be our last chance at accumulating snow for the season..... Im not holding my breath though lol

I've been at 33° for the past hour & had some flittering flurries about 2 hrs ago, then there was a fine mist. Nothing now.

It's now 45, with a very few snow grains or sleet pellets falling. It's something, but it's not rain, lol.

I think you northerners may get some decent snow here after dark. Should at least cover the ground.
Drove from Cape to Perryville about 445 and went through a period of heavy snow that actually whitened the ground and tree limbs. Pretty cool.

1/4mi vis at KUIN.
Hopefully we can muster one last burst of heavy snow before spring locks in.

Composite radar shows no weakening of the snow shield. Maybe strengthening in fact. Give me one good hour or so of moderate snow then bring on spring

Pouring snow in Columbia according to webcam from KMIZ.. Definitely a heavy burst of snow...enough to coat the grass, trees, etc. Maybe 1/2 of an inch, but coming down pretty good for about an hour or so. What I hope is a nice farewell from winter.

Actual report from a military friend in COLOMBIA said south side is at about 2” and north is only around 1” of accumulated snow and is still coming down moderately.
Also he drive from Jeff City and apparently was coming down even heavier there.

Hubby is saying not much more than a quarter of an inch here, Chris! Looked like a little more to me, but probably just wishful thinking on my part. However, it's still coming down pretty good. Will send him out for another total later! Also, I put out a call on FB to all of my Hannibal friends and hoping someone will reply shortly.

Chris, just got a reply from one of my Hannibal friends...she says about an inch and a half so far and still coming down. One of my daughter's Hannibal friends just texted her and said it was an inch or so.
