Measurable snow expected in the metro area on Saturday

Kansas City is gearing up for the first snowfall of the season as a quick-moving weather system is expected to bring measurable snow on Saturday. An Impact Day has been declared due to the potential for accumulating snow and travel disruptions. Snow is forecasted to begin before dawn along the I-70 corridor, tapering off by early afternoon. The heaviest snow is expected east of the metro, with Marshall and Columbia likely to see 1 to 4 inches of snow, while Kansas City may receive 1 to 2 inches. Temperatures will climb into the upper 30s by the afternoon, allowing for some melting as skies clear later in the day. Sunday will bring sunny skies but chilly temperatures in the 30s. Residents are advised to plan ahead for potential travel impacts and prepare for the first taste of winter this season.
