Print edition: 
Wichita is expected to be under a winter storm warning until 6 tonight.
As much as 4 to 7 inches of snow could fall by this evening, forecasters said. Wichita street crews were preparing for the snow on Sunday.
The winter storm warning issued Sunday included 35 counties in southern Kansas.
Forecasters were keeping an eye on isolated bands of the storm, where heavier amounts of snow were falling, said Robb Lawson, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Wichita. One such band stretched from Dodge City to Wichita.
Gusty north winds of 15 to 25 mph could cause problems with drifting snow today.
The storm also is bringing colder temperatures, with a low of 7 degrees forecast for tonight. Colder temperatures are expected to linger until the weekend.

Driver dies in fiery one-car crash
Wichita police are investigating a Sunday morning crash that killed one person and cut electrical and cable power for a north Wichita neighborhood.
The accident happened shortly after 3 a.m. at 29th North and Cromwell, between North Arkansas and Amidon.
A Corvette traveling at high speed struck a power pole, snapping it at its base, police said. The car then struck a tree before bursting into flames. The driver was killed.
Firefighters responding to the accident had to wait for Westar Energy to deactivate downed power lines before they could fight the fire.
The outage affected 1,949 customers, and power was restored by 8 a.m., said Karla Olsen, spokeswoman for Westar.

Distributor of pot-like substance arrested
Authorities have raided a Kansas business that distributes a legal synthetic marijuana and charged the owner with eight felony drug offenses.
Jonathan Sloan, 29, faces charges that include unlawful manufacturing and distribution of controlled substances, such as mescaline and lysergic acid amide, which is related to LSD.
His business, Bouncing Bears Botanicals, had supplied a Lawrence store called Sacred Journey with a synthetic marijuana known as K2, along with other herbal products.
Both businesses were raided Thursday. Federal, state and local authorities also seized more than $700,000 in cash from Sloan's business and bank accounts.
Sloan's attorney, Scott Gyllenborg, said his client was operating a legitimate botanical plant business. "These are remedies. These are items used in religious ceremonies that are legal, that can be put to illegal purposes," he said.
