Southern Snowstorm Update
January 31, 2008

While it’s still quite cold in KETV Channel 7 country… we’ve been spared the brunt of a snowstorm that’s roaring across parts of Missouri on this Thursday. In fact… outside of a few flurries down around Falls City and Clarinda… we’ve been completely free of the white stuff.
But… if you’re traveling south… it’s a [...]

A Surge of Bloggers
January 30, 2008

After a lull in the postings to Beyond The Forecast… you can now expect more complete coverage of weather events… with Andrea and I giving John some assistance in this mission. I guess you could call it the Super Doppler 7 Storm Team’s version of the “surge”.
About the forecast… well… let’s just say that the [...]

24 Hours Later
January 29, 2008

Wasn’t yesterday wonderful? I would bottle it up and keep it around for the rest of the month if I had the know-how. You even appreciate it more when it is followed by a day like today. Here’s what’s ahead: A windy, bitter cold day with light snow.
We have already received [...]

50!
January 28, 2008

Well, I’m now a blogger. You may have noticed with Roger’s departure, there haven’t been as many ‘Beyond the Forecast’ posts. I have been chosen to fill those shoes. To be honest, I really don’t read many blogs, I have never blogged before, and if you ask my family and [...]

Another Nice Day
January 27, 2008

I’m not going with a high of 50 degrees today, but I am being optimistic… saying 47. Some of the models have backed off a bit on the temperatures… they were in the lower 50s for today and are now trending into the mid 40s. Yesterday got a couple degrees warmer than expected (we broke [...]

Weekend Greetings…
January 26, 2008

Apologies again for the long break in the blog. I am happy to say that it will change this week. I’ll have details tomorrow.
However, let’s discuss the weather briefly this Saturday morning. Yesterday, we saw a high of 33 degrees. It was the first time temperatures got above freezing since January [...]

Quick Update
January 21, 2008

About to head to bed… but just wanted to mention that it looks like the axis of the snow did set up to our north. However, with such dry air we weren’t able to get the expected light snow in the afternoon and evening like I thought we would.
We could get another inch [...]

Snow Update
January 20, 2008

In case you missed it… it snowed some… and as I type it is still snowing. A good dusting layered much of the metro during the morning hours on Sunday. Didn’t cause too many problems and I think it’s a sign of things to come.
The snow should be a long and light event… [...]

Looking for Snow
January 19, 2008

Apologies the blog has not been updated with the latest snow. Roger’s departure has left a void in our coverage schedule. However, that should be remedied within the next week, so bear with me as I get everyone up to speed. Thanks!
Well… snow is impacting our weather for today and tomorrow. [...]

Snow
January 16, 2008

Welcome back to Andrea… I’m off today, but here’s a quick update on the snow chances for today and tonight.
It looks like the snow will begin in the afternoon. This will be a long duration event, but with no long periods of intense snow. Slow and steady is a good way to describe [...]
