Big snow totals around the Omaha area tonight

OUT THERE LIKE THAT BECAUSE HE’S IN THE CITY ON THE INTERSTATE. YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT IT’S LIKE OUT IN THE COUNTRY IF YOU’RE OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF SAUNDERS COUNTY OR MIDLAND COUNTY AND GOT TO BE NEAR BLIZZARD CONDITIONS IN SOME OF THOSE AREAS HERE. SO PLEASE, YOU KNOW, IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE TRAVELING, ESPECIALLY RURAL AREAS, JUST HUNKER DOWN. RANDY FACTOR TIME COMING UP FOR THE DAY ON FRIDAY. IT GETS A. NASTY IN THE MORNING. IT’S GOING TO BE A TWO BILL. BUT YOU KNOW YOU’LL GET OUT AND SHOVEL AND CLEAR UP. WE’LL GET SOME SUNSHINE. NOT GOOD THOUGH. A WINTER STORM WARNING LINCOLN METRO COLUMBUS FREMONT OMAHA AND THEN INTO WESTERN PORTIONS OF IOWA. THAT’S THE LOOK AT THE LAST HOUR OF DEUEL POLL. AND YOU CAN SEE THE ANIMATION WHERE THE PRECIPITATION CONTINUES HERE, AND THE SNOW TOTALS WILL LIKELY BE IN THAT RANGE OF, I SAID, 4 TO 7IN FOR OMAHA, AND SOMEBODY MIGHT WIND UP WITH EIGHT OUT TOWARD ELKHORN OR WATERLOO OR VALLEY OR BENNINGTON, OR UP INTO WASHINGTON COUNTY HERE. AND OUR COMPUTER MODEL SUGGESTING THAT THAT AGAIN, KIND OF EDGING OUT TO THE EAST AS WE GO INTO THE MORNING AND THEN WE GET SOME SUNSHINE COMING UP HERE DURING THE DAY ON FRIDAY, AND THEN A FEW CLOUDS COME IN FOR FRIDAY EVENING. THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM LOOKS TO BE SOUTH OF US, THOUGH, AND WE’RE HOPEFUL THAT’S THE CASE. THIS IS THAT COMPUTER MODELS ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL. SO IT SAYS ANOTHER 1 TO 2IN AROUND THE OMAHA METRO. SEEMINGLY POSSIBLE THROUGH ABOUT 4:00 IN THE MORNING. THIS IS THE HIGH RESOLUTION RAPID REFRESH. IT’S GOT A LITTLE MORE TO THE NORTH, BUT I LIKE THE ONE I JUST SHOWED YOU BETTER. ANOTHER INCH OR TWO, PROBABLY HERE IN OMAHA. AND A LOT OF SPOTS HAVE HAD BETWEEN ABOUT THREE AND FIVE INCHES IN OMAHA SO FAR. DON’T QUOTE ME ON THAT BECAUSE I’M JUST LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW HERE. 3421 TODAY’S TEMPERATURES COLDER DAY FOR SURE, AND I DON’T KNOW HOW THIS CORRELATES. EPPLEY AIRFIELD HAS 8/100 OF AN INCH OF MOISTURE, BUT THEY HAD THREE INCHES OF SNOW AS OF 6:00, AND MAYBE THEY’VE GOT FIVE INCHES NOW. HARD TO SAY. THAT’S NORTHWEST OMAHA WHERE AARON WAS JUST KIND OF HEADING TOWARD. THAT’S THE FAIRFIELD INN CAMERA, WHICH IS AT BLAIR HIGH ROAD AND 680. AND YOU SEE IT JUST IT LOOKS ROUGH OUT THERE. 21 IN OMAHA, BLAIR 21 DEGREES IN COUNCIL BLUFFS, 27 ATLANTIC, 20 LINCOLN 18 COLUMBUS THAT WIND OUT OF THE NORTHWEST. AND IF YOU’RE IN RURAL AREAS SO TOUGH, THERE’S LIVE SUPER DOPPLER SEVEN RADAR. YOU CAN SEE THE SNOW, THE BACK EDGE, NOT THROUGH OMAHA. AND ANOTHER, YOU KNOW, HOUR TO HOUR AND A HALF OF THAT PRETTY GOOD SNOW TO WORK THROUGH. AND THEN THERE’S STILL SOME LIGHT SNOW BEYOND. AND OF COURSE THIS SNOW EXTENDS EAST OVER TO DES MOINES AND AMES JUST NORTH OF THERE. AND THERE’S OUR COMPUTER MODEL. SNOW MOVES OUT OVERNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE GETS IN HERE TOMORROW. GET SOME SUNSHINE. THIS NEXT SYSTEM WITH THE SNOW SORT OF STAYS OFF TO THE SOUTH. BUT WE GET A FEW CLOUDS TOMORROW NIGHT AND INTO SATURDAY. TONIGHT THE LOW TEMPERATURE 14 OMAHA SNOW TOTALS MOSTLY IN THE 4 TO 7 INCH RANGE. MOST OF THE ACCUMULATING SNOW DONE BY ONE IN THE MORNING. STILL PRETTY ROUGH AT 8 A.M. ICY SNOWY ROADS AT THAT TIME. WE’LL GET SOME SUN BUT STAY BELOW FREEZING THROUGH THE DAY. GOOD CLEAN UP DAY BY MIDDAY INTO THE AFTERNOON, THEN COLD AND DRY ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. AND IF WE HAVE LIGHT WINDS AND CLEAR SKIES ON SUNDAY NIGHT, MONDAY MORNING IT COULD GET ZERO OR SLIGHTLY BELOW ZERO. AND YOU KNOW, I’M SAYING 48, 50, 53 BY TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY, BUT WITH, YOU KNOW, FIVE SIX INCHES OF SNOW TO MELT.
