Police in the city of Holts Summit, about 100 miles west of St. Louis, confirmed a young child was killed in a single-engine rollover crash around 7 a.m. Later in the morning, the highway patrol continued to warn drivers to stay off the roads statewide. The system, named Winter Storm Iliana by The Weather Channel, prompted the governors of Missouri and Kansas to declare states of emergency and shut down schools in Kansas City, Des Moines and Omaha. The storm brought about 1 to 3 inches of snow to parts of Montana, and up to 6 inches to parts of Kansas, southern Nebraska and Iowa as of Wednesday afternoon.
