Shaping up to be a hot cocoa day. Here's what Sgt. Boese is seeing on Ridge Road north of Hesston. Road conditions are a bit of a mixed bag right now. Some areas have pretty good snow cover, while other areas may be clear in spots, depending on the wind, tree rows, etc. Snow is starting to drift.
Snowfall is expected to pick back up throughout the day, and it's gonna be a cold one. Travel is discouraged if you can avoid it. If you need to be on the road, plan ahead for the conditions. Stay safe.Photos from Harvey County Sheriff's Office's post

Road crews are out clearing paths, but if you’re traveling, expect some roads will have snow cover or may be slick in spots. If you need to venture out today, give yourself plenty of time to get where you’re going and take it slow. Stay safe out there.

*Cracks knuckles* Welp, time to write the annual Chiefs-in-the-Super-Bowl safety message.
Another big weekend incoming for Chiefs Kingdom. Apologies to Josh Allen, C.J. Stroud, people mad about it on the internet, etc. We'll go ahead and preemptively apologize to Eagles fans, as well. Y'all just weren't Worthy. We hope everyone has an exciting, safe and responsible time celebrating the big game. As always, our deputies will still be on the lookout for drunk and impaired drivers, including during and after the game.
If you're drinking and driving, it's going to cause a bundle-rooski of problems for you. The combo of financial woes and driving complications that come with a DUI is rougher than being chased around by Karlaftis and Jones for 60 minutes.
Needing an unsung hero to come in clutch? We Noah Gray. Find a designated driver to safely get you home. Don't try to just Shake It Off - we know All Too Well that isn't gonna work - when finding a safe ride home never goes out of Style (paying our respects to Kelce with a Tay-Tay trifecta to close the message).
Bad jokes aside, please be smart and safe if you're celebrating. Enjoy it. Go Chiefs. 🟡🔴*Cracks knuckles* Welp, time to write the annual Chiefs-in-the-Super-Bowl safety message.
