    Areas affected...Central Kansas

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 180555Z - 180900Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy snowfall with occasional rates of 1"/hr.

    DISCUSSION...Snowfall coverage has increased across portions of
    central Kansas as upper-level forcing overspreads the central
    Plains. Overall, rates appear to be light to moderate. Mesoscale
    banding is occurring, producing a few heavier bands with reports of
    heavy snow and visibility 1/4-1/2 mile over the last hour. Forecast
    soundings indicate very cold temperatures throughout the profile
    with saturation through the lowest levels, albeit a bit drier but
    sufficiently moist in the dendrite growth zone. Given the
    overspreading of forcing for ascent, snowfall should continue to
    increase in coverage and will continue over through the morning.
