* WHERE...Portions of north central Kansas and central, east 
  central, and south central Nebraska.

* WHEN...From 1 AM to 2 PM CDT Wednesday.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Travel should be restricted to emergencies only. If you must travel, 
have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay with 
your vehicle. The latest road conditions for the state you are 
calling from can be obtained by calling 5 1 1.

Persons should consider delaying all travel. Motorists should use 
extreme caution if travel is absolutely necessary.

A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are 
expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds 
are likely. This will lead to whiteout conditions, making travel 
extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If you must travel, have a 
winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay in your 
vehicle.
