    Default Kansas City Show-Major snowstorm on the way

    If those going to the show tomorrow night, there is a major snowstorm on the way, 6 to 12 inches of snow, and it's heading right for Kansas City. Should start Friday night into tomorrow, check the weather before driving.

    If I had tickets and the time off from work, I would definitely brave the weather and make the 5 hour drive there. For those going, Travel safe and have fun.

    Not too far....3 hours for us. Not going though. We did get out tonight in the storm and drove south to Newkirk, Oklahoma. Bet you can't guess what we were doing there <LOL>

    The roads were horribly icy about 30 miles north of Oklahoma and further north to where we started. But the road crews got out and cleaned highway 77. HEAVY rain in Newkirk though. And they are having a lot of trouble with power lines snapping. Trees breaking too with the heavy Ice they are getting.

    Up where I live, we've gotten around 4" of sleet mixed with some little snow and are expecting more tonight. I haven't heard anything about the conditions on the turnpike between Wichita and Kansas City.

    Y'all be CAREFUL iffin all-y'all are getting out on this mess!

    Anyone going tonight please drive safe.

    Most people in FL can't drive right in the rain much less if it was to snow. They'd have to shut the entire roadsystem down. lol

    Ok, so far so good, only raining, and now they are calling for 2-4 inches of snow. In the past the weather forecasters would say snow, and nothing came in, I hope this is one of those times. Keeping my fingers crossed. I bought the I Love All Access tickets for this show, hope the seats are good.
    I took my son to the Columbia, Mo show two weeks ago and The Eagles sounded great.

    Here's some pics of the conditions in Wichita. Don't know but would imagine that it is even worse in Kansas City.

    http://mvabercrombie.net/abercrombie..._0328_ice.html

    That "white stuff" is mostly ice in the form of sleet. It didn't start snowing until later this morning. I'd guess at around 3" of sleet if not more.

    Worried about our trees! Already lost one major limb off of an Oak in our front yard. So far, we're not having power outages but it's a miracle with all the ice and the wind blowing as hard as it is.

    Sure hope everyone who ventured out to the concert in KC had a great and SAFE time!
