   Areas affected...Northeast Kansas into southeast Nebraska

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 081527Z - 081830Z

   SUMMARY...Rain will transition to heavy snow across northeast Kansas
   and vicinity late this morning into the afternoon.

   DISCUSSION...Several observation sites across northeast Kansas have
   switched from rain to snow in the last hour as the column cools from
   increasing isentropic ascent across the region. Expect this to
   continue for the remaining areas across northeast Kansas where rain
   is still falling. This strong ascent will also lead to very heavy
   snowfall rates in excess of 1 inch per hour. In addition, the
   heavier snowfall rates will lift into southeast Nebraska by midday
   with some snowfall rates approaching 2 inches per hour amid a deeper
   DGZ and colder surface temperatures. Winds will increase to around
   15 mph with gusts to 25 mph this afternoon which will lead to an
   increase in blowing and drifting across the region.
