The Winter Storm Watch is no longer in effect. Timing - light snow may begin in north central Kansas Monday evening with accumulating snow expected in the entire area by sunrise Tuesday. The heaviest snow is expected between 4 am and 6 PM on Tuesday with intensity gradually decreasing Tuesday evening into early Wednesday morning. Total snow and ice accumulations - snow accumulations should range from 6 to 10 inches with up to 12 inches possible.

North winds increase further with gusts to 35 mph expected Tuesday evening through Wednesday morning with widespread blowing snow. Impacts - as roads quickly become snow packed slick and hazardous driving conditions can be expected. Gusty winds will result in the potential for blowing and drifting of snow.
