Warnings and Notices

	Winter Storm Watch
Statement as of 3:44 PM CDT on March 18, 2010 ... Winter Storm Watch in effect from Friday evening through Saturday evening... The National Weather Service in Wichita has issued a Winter Storm Watch... which is in effect from Friday evening through Saturday evening. * Timing... of the winter precipitation will begin on Friday evening as a cold rain... but will quickly changeover to all snow by by late Friday evening. The snow will continue through the day on Saturday. * Snow accumulations... are expected to be the heaviest across south central Kansas generally along a line from El Dorado to Wichita to Anthony. The heaviest snow band has the potential to see amounts of five to eight inches. Some isolated higher amounts may be possible. To the north and northwest of this heavy snow axis... snowfall amounts could reach the four to seven inch range from Newton to Hutchinson to Kingman. * Winds... will increase dramatically on Friday evening and continue on Saturday... with wind speeds increasing to 20 to 30 mph. Some gusts up to 35 mph are possible early on Saturday which may be lead to reduced visibilities from blowing snow. * Impacts... of the heavy snow will include low visibilities around one mile and possibly some blowing and drifting snow. The high moisture content of the heavy snow could lead to the collapsing of non sturdy structures including car ports and porches. Some trees and power lines may also be affected by the heavy snow as well. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A Winter Storm Watch means there is a potential for significant winter weather that may impact travel. Continue to monitor the latest forecasts for updated information.
