Governor Sam Brownback is closing executive branch state offices in Shawnee County again today (WED) because of the winter storm. During a briefing yesterday (TUE), Brownback said the main threat today will be blowing snow and very cold wind chill readings.
Brownback says the high winds are making it a challenge for workers to keep the roads clear.
