Well, well, well, it looks like Kansas City is preparing for yet another snow spectacle. If you’ve got kiddos in school, you’ll want to grab a hot chocolate and park yourself by the window because starting from Wednesday, we’re due for some serious snow action!

Various school districts across the Kansas City metro area had their noses out of joint recently with winter weather wreaking havoc on their schedules. As we head into Thursday, a slew of districts have officially declared they are closed for the day. Better luck next time, homework!

As if a day off wasn’t enough, forecasts have heightened expectations for snowfall this week.

The south of the metro should brace itself for a slightly heavier load with predictions climbing between 6 to 9 inches.
