This was in an open area (no drifting). I’d call it a little over 5 inches. Snow is still falling. #kswx @NWSWichita pic.twitter.com/H4wPTBqbEU — Mike Rose (@SaxmanTDS) November 8, 2018	Great Bend, KS Snow Storm Winter Travel Headache 11/8/2018 https://t.co/eOaYeWxw6D via @YouTube #KSWX — StormChasingVideo (@StormChasingVid) November 8, 2018
