Colder!
TODAY'S NUMBERS:
HIGH: 48
LOW: 36
I bet you noticed the much cooler air in place today! We were about 10 degrees below our highs from Monday and Tuesday at KCI. But here's the thing... KCI got to see a little sunshine this afternoon... while many of you didn't!! So some of our Northeastern suburbs were stuck in the upper 30s all day!! I am sure that felt cold for you!
On tonight's satellite image, you can see the storm that moved through yesterday... now located over the Ohio Valley:

That storm brought some light rain/drizzle to the area this morning... but that was it! We are in a fast-paced part of the weather pattern right now. And the storms are coming through KC pretty dry. The next storm will pass just to our north on Friday... again robbing us of any big rain chance. You can see it tonight... located over Idaho:

The main energy of the storm will get SOME showers going... but not here! You can see the concentration of moisture NORTH of KC on tonight's NAM run:

New Year's Eve still looks dry... and mild for this time of year! With highs in the 50s this weekend... and lows in the mid to upper 30s.
Well, if you haven't heard... we have some exciting news from the weather department! Starting Sunday, January 1st... our forecasts will appear daily in the Kansas City Star! AND we'll have a streaming video forecast on their website... www.kansascity.com We are VERY excited and proud to join into this new partnership!!
Have a great night! I'll be blogging with you again tomorrow!

Hello:
Alas...if only the GFS extended could actually turn out correct - the latest run (1827 Thu) this Dog saw showed two potent, and I mean potent, storms affecting MO - one around the 8th, one perhaps 4-5 days later - intense precip, cold air (some at least with thicknesses of 528 or 534 drawn into the system), with both moving directly over west-central MO (us). Unfortunately, as with all long-range progs, Mr GFS is probably imbibing too much or has a hang-over from New Years. IF IT COULD ONLY PAN OUT!!!
Later,
The Dog
Hey, Dog...
Yes, that is exciting to look at! While the storm may really be there... will it take that same TRACK is the question :) Time will tell...
