Snow and slippery travel over the central United States will evolve into dangerous blizzard conditions spanning the first part of the coming week, including Groundhog Day.
A storm will strengthen and gather snow and wind as it tracks across the Southwest states into Monday to the central Plains and Upper Midwest during Monday night into Tuesday night.
The storm will put down snow along a 1,600-mile swath in the U.S. from Flagstaff, Arizona, to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.
According to AccuWeather Meteorologist Brett Rathbun, "A swath of 6- to 12-inch snowfall with localized areas of 12-18 inches are likely from parts of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado to portions of Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin, northern Michigan and southern Minnesota."
