... Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 6 am CST
Wednesday...
... Wind Chill Advisory in effect until 11 am CST Wednesday...

The National Weather Service in Wichita has issued a Wind Chill
Advisory... which is in effect until 11 am CST Wednesday. A Winter
Storm Warning remains in effect until 6 am CST Wednesday.

Areas of light to moderate snow will continue across central
Kansas into the evening hours. Additional snowfall accumulations
of 1 to 3 inches can be expected by mid-evening... bringing total
accumulations to between 6 and 10 inches.

Meanwhile... as the system departs later this evening... strong and
gusty northwest winds of 25 to 30 mph... with gusts to 40 mph... will
develop across the area. This will lead to significant blowing and
drifting of newly fallen snow... and usher in bitter cold
temperatures. Near blizzard conditions will be possible at times
due to the blowing snow.

Bitter cold wind chill readings from minus 15 to minus 20 degrees
will prevail from this evening through Wednesday morning across
central Kansas.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Storm Warning means significant winter weather is
expected or occurring. This will make travel very hazardous or
impossible.

A Wind Chill Advisory means that very cold air and strong winds
will combine to generate low wind chills. This will result in
frostbite and lead to hypothermia if precautions are not taken.
If you must venture outdoors... make sure you wear a hat and
gloves.
