Strong Winds Sweep Kansas

Kansas residents should brace for powerful winds through Sunday afternoon, with the National Weather Service issuing wind advisories across much of the state. Wind advisories remain in effect until 4 p.m. CST for north-central, northeast and east-central Kansas. Residents are urged to secure loose outdoor items, including holiday decorations and trash containers, and exercise caution when driving, particularly in high-profile vehicles. Light snow may develop early Sunday morning in northwest Kansas, mainly between 4-10 a.m. CST, with a dusting to 1 inch of accumulation possible north of Interstate 70. Minor blowing snow could create nuisance travel difficulties before conditions improve by late morning.

Much colder air will blast into Kansas overnight, bringing dangerously low wind chills Monday morning. Wind chill values will range from zero to 9 degrees across the state, with the coldest readings in northwest Kansas. High temperatures Monday will struggle to reach the low-to-mid 30s across central and southern Kansas, with areas near Topeka only reaching 29 degrees. T
