Winter Weather Advisory comes in advance of snowfall's return

(MSC News)--Drivers are advised to plan ahead and take it slow late this weekend into early Monday. 

That's due to the National Weather Service issuing a Winter Weather Advisory for portions of northeast Kansas and north central to northwest Missouri.

The advisory begins at 3:00 Sunday afternoon and continues through 9:00 Monday morning. 

Forecasters say mixed precipitation is expected, with snow accumulations up to one inch and ice accumulations up to one tenth of an inch.

The National Weather Service says to plan for slippery road conditions, and warns the hazardous weather could impact the Monday morning commute.

"My concern would be Sunday night, Monday morning," MSC Radio Network Chief Meteorologist Bill Spencer told MSC News. "If you're gonna have a debacle on your hands on the roadways, it's gonna be Sunday night." 

Authorities advise motorists who must travel to slow down and use caution, especially on bridges, overpasses, and untreated roads.
