An upper level low spun around the Southwest United States during this time frame with weak upper level shortwaves being ejected eastward across the Central Rockies into the Central High Plains. This caused diffluent westerly flow above the Central High Plains. A strong upper level jet was also in place above the area of concern. Mid-level Isentropic lift of saturated air was present during this event and was the main lifting mechanism. A dome of high pressure shifted eastward as the weekend approached allowing southeast upslope winds to be felt across western Kansas. Light to moderate rain started to fall across far western Kansas by late Saturday morning, spreading eastward as the afternoon progressed. Precipitation then changed over to snow by evening, first across west central Kansas, then the remainder of southwest Kansas by midnight. Moderate snow showers were observed throughout the night with occasional light snow reported throughout Sunday. Light to moderate snow fell once again across portions of western Kansas Sunday night before ending by late Monday morning. By the time the snow ended, snowfall amounts of 6-10 inches were reported across west central Kansas, 3-7 inches across southwest Kansas, and 1-4 inches across central and south central Kansas.
