The snow has stopped, but the winds are showing no sign of decreasing this morning through the afternoon hours. We'll be seeing roads looking like this throughout most of the morning:
Stay safe if you must travel!

A little bit of sunshine shed some light on the blowing snow but it didn't help much for visibility because it was still nearly impossible to see. The last picture is supposed to have a road in it somewhere, good luck finding it. Conditions are so bad that I-90 is shut down in many areas. check safetravelusa.com for current travel information.
This snow is so light and fluffy that it's easily picked up and blown around, so even though the snow is going to stop by the time we get into the overnight hours, it won't look like it because of our wind speeds. Here's a look at them currently, can you tell where the end of this system is? 
Probably because you can see a major shift in the wind direction as well as a huge change in the wind speeds. All of our viewing area will be seeing an increase in the winds as this system heads southeast, and that's what's going to kick up the snow, drop the visibilities and just make things nasty out there. Stay safe!
The Hydrological Prediction Center is also keeping an eye on this storm and has forecasted quite a bit of snow for some of us.
They are thinking that some of us could get 4 inches of snow during the heart of this storm but that's not even all of it because we are likely going to get snow before and after their time frame.
Well on our way to an extremely snowy winter. At least you are getting your moneys worth when you bought that shovel.
Now those deep red-maroon colors are temperatures 22 to 24 below zero, but you see all those purples and pinks and blues are all showing this cold pocket of air and how wide this cold weather is spread across the country. Although, we are in the heart of the coldest of this air, it makes me chuckle a little bit hearing all the national stories about how 11 degree wind chill is cold - I don't even remember what 11 degrees feels like right now, much less temperatures in the 20s, which is where we're supposed to be this time of year.
Snowfall Expected from model 2 through Thursday night:
Snowfall Forecasted by the National Weather Service:
Like I said before, not only are we going to be dealing with the snow but the extreme cold and the winds sustained 15-30 mph. With temperatures expected to be below zero, wind chills will likely be some 20 to 40 degrees below zero. Below is the wind chill chart. I have circled the areas in red that we are expecting Wednesday through Friday morning.
January is definately living up to its name so stay bundled up!!!
