Possible blizzard conditions Wednesday, elevated to First Warn Weather Day

We have decided to upgrade Wednesday to a First Warn Weather Day. Our confidence is growing for a large storm system to pass through the region. It will bring a few rain showers first, and then as temperatures plummet, a transition over to snow is expected. The current thinking is the transition timeframe to snow is sometime in the afternoon on Wednesday. There will likely be at least a few hour window of snow as temperatures dip in the 30s, and we need to watch the evening commute for impacts. While the ground will be warm, some minor accumulation is possible in grassy and elevated surfaces. We are thinking up to an inch of snow at this time, potentially to two inches in northwest Missouri. Should not stick much to the roadways, at least not initially. The biggest concern we have is reduced visibility with winds gusting 50+ mph from the northwest.
