Winter Weather Advisory


... Winter Weather Advisory in effect from midnight tonight to
6 PM CST Monday...

The National Weather Service in Hastings has issued a Winter
Weather Advisory for snow and freezing drizzle... which is in effect
from midnight tonight to 6 PM CST Monday.

* Timing... an area of generally light snow will overspread parts
of the area from south to north overnight... and continue into
the daytime hours mainly in south central Nebraska. In addition
to snow... light freezing drizzle is forecast during this
time... with some areas possibly transitioning back and forth
from snow to freezing drizzle.

* Snow and ice accumulation... total snow accumulation of 1 to 2
inches is anticipated... with the best potential for 2 inch
amounts focused near and north of Highway 6 in south central
Nebraska. Freezing drizzle is expected to produce a thin glaze
of ice in many areas.

* Impact... the combination of snow and freezing drizzle could
result in slick roadways... especially for Monday morning
commuters.

* Uncertainty... although the advisory is in effect for 18
hours... not all areas will experience snow or freezing drizzle
the entire time... as precipitation could be off and on in
nature. In addition... temperatures may warm above freezing by
late Monday morning mainly in portions of north central
Kansas... ending the freezing drizzle threat.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow... sleet... or
freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for
slippery roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.
