Blizzard warnings issued for 5 states

Blizzard’s warnings are in force for Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota, when a winter storm brings strong snow, strong winds and dangerous trips.

The National Meteorological Service (NWS) warned about significantly reduced visibility, road closures and snowfall up to 12 inches with bursts that reach 70 miles per hour.

Why does it matter

The conditions of the snowstorm can cause significant interruptions to travel, with the meteorological channel informing that the conditions of the Ventisca storm have already forced the closures along the main roads, including the interest 70 in Kansas and the interest 80 in Nebraska.

In addition to the interruption of the trip, the storm conditions can cause power cuts and other interruptions.

What to know

In Colorado, Blizzard conditions were expected in the northeast of the State, including Yuma and Washington counties. Winds of up to 65 mph were expected to reduce visibility.

The NWS said that traveling in the interest 70 could become dangerous or impossible due to falling or blown and drifting snow and poor visibility.

Kansas was also forecast due to the generalized impacts, even in Cloud, Ottawa, Republic and Washington counties, where bursts of up to 65 mph and blowing snow could reduce visibility to less than a quarter of a mile.

Snow accumulations vary from 2 to 4 inches, with isolated areas that receive more.

Iowa faced some of the heaviest snow, with up to 12 inches possible in the central, central north, northwest and western portions of the state, said the NWS.

“The power cuts are possible,” the agency warned.

The southern Minnesota, including Faribault, Freeeeele counties, waits 3 to 7 inches of snow.

“Little laundering conditions are expected and will make trips treacherous and potentially potentially mortal,” said the weather service, adding that dangerous conditions could affect Wednesday’s trips.

What people say

Accuweather’s meteorologist Tom Kines said Newsweek: “After bringing snow conditions and snowstorm to the plains and the upper west medium, this storm will be transferred to Canada on Wednesday night and will become a much less problem for the United States and end the threat of snowstorm conditions.

The National Meteorological Service said on X, previously Twitter, Tuesday: “A strong spring storm system will bring snow storm conditions from the plains of the center of the height to the west of the upper Wednesday, while they are possible severe thunderstorms in the west.

What happens later

Blizzard’s warnings remain in force until Wednesday night, with an improvement of the expected conditions as the storm moves northeast.

The authorities will continue to monitor road and weather conditions and provide updates.

Residents must remain updated on local notices and avoid unnecessary trips, according to forecasting.
