With a historically cold Arctic air mass in place, snow overspread the region on Valentine's Day and continued through February 15th. Most locations across southern and eastern Kansas picked up between 2 and 6 inches of snow. Because it was so cold, snow was very light and fluffy and was also easy to blow into drifts. A few totals even reached a depth of 8 inches and some drifts of snow were reported to be around 9 inches deep.
