...Blizzard on Track to Impact the Region Today...

.A potent storm will track through the region today, spreading
into north-central Kansas and the rest of northeast and east central 
Kansas through midday. Rain early on will quickly change over to snow 
with snowfall rates of over an inch per hour possible at times. 

Total snowfall amounts of 6 to 12 inches will be likely for areas north of a 
line from Emporia to Lawrence with locally higher amounts possible. Lower
snowfall amounts of 2 to 6 inches are expected south of that line.

Strong winds of 40 to 50 mph, coupled with the heavy snow, will lead to blizzard 
conditions along and north of the Emporia to Lawrence line. Even with lesser snow 
totals expected south of that line, near blizzard conditions are possible. 
If you choose to travel you will be in a very dangerous situation with slick roads
and whiteout conditions.
