WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...
* WHAT...A mix of rain and wet snow will continue into the evening
hours. Some additional light snow accumulations of less than one
inch are possible. A flash freeze of wet roadways and other
surfaces is likely overnight, as much colder air surges
southward. Strong and gusty north winds around 40 mph will also
accompany the cold air.
* WHERE...Portions of central, south central, and southeast
Kansas.
* WHEN...Through the late evening hours.
* IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions especially for
untreated surfaces tonight as colder air spreads southward.
This could cause a refreeze of wet and slushy roads tonight,
possibly impacting the Thursday morning commute. In addition,
the very cold air will combine with strong north winds to
create sub zero wind chills for late tonight and early
Thursday morning.

Instructions:

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Temperatures will fall below freezing by
midnight and into teens by Thursday morning.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Slow down and use caution while traveling.
The latest road conditions for the state you are calling from can
