Winter in Wichita setting: Abbr. crossword clue
21 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 12, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Winter in Wichita setting: Abbr.” is CST. It appears as 21 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 12, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Backing the Odds” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 4, column 10 of the 15×15 grid.
The shortening cue in the clue tells you to expect an abbreviation or initials rather than a full word. The entry begins with C and ends with T, and contains 0 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
