2/3/2020 (Permalink)

At a Glance

  • A winter storm will bring snow and strong winds to the West on Monday.
  • Snow and ice will blanket parts of the Plains, Midwest and Northeast through late this week, but details are still uncertain.
  • Travel could be impacted in many areas because of snow, ice and rain.

A winter storm will slow down travel across the country this week as it brings snow, ice and rain to parts of the West, Plains, Midwest and Northeast.

This system has been named Winter Storm Kade by The Weather Channel.

 Much of the snow and strong winds from this storm will be in the West and the adjacent Front Range of the Rockies through Monday night. The snow, ice and rain will then affect areas from the Southern Plains to the Midwest and Northeast in multiple phases from Tuesday through Friday. Severe thunderstorms are possible in the warmer air ahead of this system in parts of the South.

Here's a look at where the storm is now and what to expect the next several days. Keep in mind, this forecast will likely change in the coming days, so check back to weather.com for updates.

Happening Now

Snow is currently moving from parts of the Rockies to western South Dakota. Travel conditions will be difficult in many areas, including Salt Lake City.

Salt Lake City International Airport had picked up 5 inches of snow from this storm as of 5 a.m. local time on Monday morning.

There have been several interstate closures because of the snowfall in the Northern Rockies. Go to the link below for more details.

Winter storm warnings and winter weather advisories have been issued by the National Weather Service for parts of the northern and central Rockies and Central Plains.

Cities under a winter storm warning include Salt Lake City and Cheyenne, Wyoming. The city of Denver is currently under a winter weather advisory, but the western suburbs, including Boulder, Colorado, are under a winter storm warning.

The winter storm warning areas are expected to have the heaviest snowfall and greatest travel impacts from this storm system, while lighter snow amounts still capable of causing some travel impacts are expected in the winter weather advisory areas.

Winter storm watches have also now been issued in the Southern Plains from northwest Texas into central Oklahoma for later Tuesday into Wednesday. The watches include Oklahoma City and Lubbock, Texas.
