It was a beautiful spring 71 degrees yesterday in Kansas City. Today, temperatures have been slowly falling since midnight. At 5 a.m. this morning it was well above freezing with mist and light rain. Right now it is 27 degrees misting, sleeting, freezing rain and just a touch of snow. There is about a half inch of slush on the roads and it is beginning to freeze.
Most of the schools, including colleges, have closed early and/or canceled classes for tonight. Many churches have canceled evening services. News media is advising to stay off the roads. Most of the highways are already jammed with early rush hour traffic and many of the main highways are already inundated with accidents.
I'm inside, sitting in front of the heater waiting for chicken and rice soup to warm that Cheryl left for me. I don't have to get out for the next several days so I'm going to enjoy watching our first winter storm from the comfort of my apartment.
