And we would love to see video of any storm footage you may get (safely!). You can upload that using our Now Local News App HERE. 

Below is a look at what our StormCast Weather Model has for timing, duration, and location of the snow tonight into Wednesday.

Snowfall will be light and fluffy, so it may try to add up quick. The area that is in the Winter Storm Warning will likely see the most, especially the closer you get to Kansas.

This will be a light and fluffy snow, so with a gusty north wind at 10 to 20 mph, gusting higher than that at times, visibility in open areas (like I80) may drop quickly and travel will become difficult. Temperatures will drop into the single digits by early Wednesday morning.

With that wind out of the north and northeast, the wind chill will be well below zero early Wednesday, as well.
