Kansas is the original Free State, founded to
express the principle of equality, and, later, the birthplace of the Brown
v. Board of Education decision. Kansas gave the world Dwight D. Eisenhower
and Amelia Earhart — quintessential American heroes. Learn all about the
Sunflower State by exploring
Kansas Tourism Web site.
You can get a quick overview, or dig deep into the hearts and minds of
Kansans by reading the many in-depth travel articles you will find.
All four seasons are experienced in Kansas.
Statewide, the average annual temperature is 55 degrees. The average
rainfall is 26.5 inches statewide; however, precipitation decreases as you
travel west. The average in southeast Kansas is 45 inches annually, while
the western border averages just 15 inches of rain. Kansas is divided by
two time zones: Mountain and Central. Four of the western counties observe
Mountain Time. The east-west span of Kansas is great enough that the sun
rises and sets on the western border 30 minutes later than on the eastern
end. |
