PHOTOS: Snowstorm packs a punch in western Kansas

While parts of the southeastern United States were under severe weather alerts on Tuesday, much of the central plains were dealing with a big snowstorm.

The Weather Channel is calling this one Winter Storm Kayla, and it impacted Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas big time, forcing the closure of some interstates in the area. However, our team at Love's 455 in Ellis, Kansas, was focused on serving Customers throughout the storm although they were able to send us a handful of photos while they were outside.

A big 'thank you' to all our teams who work to serve Customers during inclement weather, and a big 'thank you' to our Customers who look to Love's Travel Stops as a respite from the storm during winter months. Last and definitely not least, thank you to Love's difference maker Randi Hook for the photos!

If you have photos of Love's that you'd like to share with the blog team, email us at social@loves.com and tell us your story. You might see your pics and story on our blog!
