A storm system moving west from Missouri was bringing a mix of drizzle and snow this afternoon to the Lawrence area.

“We’re going to see rain changing over to snow, just a mix, until about 6 o’clock,” said Matt Sayers, 6News meteorologist. “You might see a little slushy accumulation on your car or in a grassy area. But roads are going to be fine.”

Earlier forecasts today anticipated that most of the wet weather would miss Lawrence, and pass on to the north. But the system moved in from parts of west-central Missouri and across to northeast Kansas, Sayers said.

“You might see a couple of sprinkles or snowflakes during the evening hours,” he said.
