With gusting winds up to 50 mph, blowing snow from last week and fresh snowfall, travel is being discouraged in Gove County.
The National Weather Service warned of hazardous travel conditions, and Trooper Tod Hileman of the Kansas Highway Patrol reported slideoffs and a vehicle vs. guardrail crash.
