| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | After a couple of weeks of quiet weather, winter returned to the region with a mixture of snow, sleet, freezing rain and wind. Most of the precipitation fell from early morning to mid-afternoon across south-central Nebraska on the 8th. As the morning wore on, conditions deteriorated quickly as a mixture of sleet and freezing rain changed to all snow. North winds increased and gusted over 30 mph by late morning as heavy snow fell. Schools which hadn't already canceled classes, let students head home early as the snow piled up.Snow amounts ranged from 3 to 8 inches with the heavier amounts in a 50 mile wide band from near Alma, through Kearney, and then to around Greeley. Loup City and Greeley both reported 7 to 8 inches of snow. Somewhat lighter amounts were noted east and south of Hastings. The combination of snow, ice and wind downed power lines and caused hazardous driving conditions. Some 1,500 people were without electricity in the York area for a time on the 8th. |
