After hours of falling snow, the most recent winter storm is moving out of our area, leaving in its wake a good amount of snow.

Snow totals varied throughout the area. In Salina, four to five inches of snow have been reported, covering early spring flowers such as daffodils and crocus.

Most roadways in the area remain at least partially snowpacked. To check on road conditions, go to <a href="http://kandrive.org">kandrive.org</a> or call 5-1-1 or 1-866-511-KDOT (5368).

The anticipated snow totals and the timing of the snowfall prompted a number of area school districts, higher education institutions, and public services to close or cancel on Thursday. A couple of school districts also canceled for Friday.
