What happened
The episode as NWS EAX wrote it up.
A storm system brought a mixed bag of wintery precipitation to northern Missouri on December 11th. Precipitation began as freezing drizzle late in the evening of December 10th. After midnight precipitation increased in intensity and changed over to snow across the northern tier of Missouri. Snowfall totaled 7 inches in Fairfax Missouri, with 3-5 inches reported north of a St. Joseph to Kirksville line. Ice accumulations of up to 3/8 of an inch were reported from Marshall and Sedalia into the Boonville area. While heavy accumulation of snow and ice were not noted over the remainder of the area, the combination of snow and ice was sufficient to disrupt travel. Numerous traffic accidents were reported, and two airplanes slid off icy taxiways at the Kansas City International Airport, but no serious injuries were reported. Most schools in the area were closed and many remained closed the next day.
