Yesterday you said their WWA issued had 2-6" so the 4-ish seems right. You can trade places with me any time if you'd prefer.

snowstorm83 Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Glad to see us doing well in Nebraska. My original plan was to come back the morning of the 29th but glad I didn't. I would miss most of it anyway and have to deal with terrible roads. As I'm typing though KLNK actually just changed to sleet LOL, I'm a curse. I think at least 5" at KLNK is a sure bet though. Can't wait to get back tomorrow, I'm getting bored and fat here back at home.
