.Historic winter storm to bring more heavy snow and blizzard conditions
to portions of Colorado, New Mexico, and the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle
through tonight...

...Showers and thunderstorms will bring the threat of flash flooding to
the southern Plains through tonight, and into the Lower Mississippi Valley
and Mid-South for Saturday and Saturday night...

...Above average temperatures continue for much of the country this
weekend...

...Atmospheric river to arrive across the Pacific Northwest on Sunday with
heavy coastal rains and high elevation snowfall...

A historic winter storm with very heavy snowfall will continue to impact
the southern Rockies and portions of the immediate southern High Plains
going through tonight, including areas of Colorado, New Mexico and small
parts of the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle region. Going through tonight,
areas of eastern Colorado will see the heaviest additional snowfall totals
with locally over a foot of new snow expected. This will be supported by
snowfall rates that will occasionally fall at 1 to 2 inches/hour. Strong
and gusty winds accompanying the snow will also continue to promote
blizzard conditions and especially over northeast New Mexico where
Blizzard Warnings remain in effect. As a result, travel will continue to
be very difficult to impossible, and especially with numerous road
closures already locally in place. The very slow-moving area of low
pressure responsible for this historic, multi-day winter storm will begin
to advance northeast out across the central Plains this weekend, and this
will allow for the snow to begin tapering off on Saturday.
