Snow-Inflicted Travel Woes Expected Late Thursday

Today marks our next opportunity for snowfall. Initially, a few light snow flurries will occur roughly at dawn to the northwest as a front approaches.

Additionally, we should keep an eye on the southern part of the region, where more snow is expected to arrive by midday and throughout the afternoon.

Regions to the south and east will remain under a Winter Weather Advisory until 6 a.m. on Friday. Minor snow accumulations could result in dangerous, slippery conditions.

The heaviest snowfall is expected during the evening hours and extending into the night. Anticipate a slower commute in the evening.

Overnight, the snow will gradually shift eastward.

The greatest amounts of 2″ to 3″ are anticipated in the southeastern corner of the region. As you move farther to the north and west, the snowfall will be less substantial than that.

A pause from snowy weather patterns is expected after today.

Wichita and the South-central area of Kansas will predominantly remain in the 30s, although there may be occasions where Western Kansas experiences highs in the 40s.
