A brief dusting of snow created slick driving conditions here in Wichita and Sedgwick County.

The National Weather Service issued a significant weather advisory for Butler, Cowley, Kingman, Sedgwick and Sumner Counties. National Weather Service Doppler Radar indicated a narrow band of light to moderate snow across parts of south central Kansas. The snow was affecting bridges and overpasses in the Wichita Metro area.  The band of snow moved through south central and southeast Kansas, and skies cleared by late afternoon.
