The winter storm sweeping across the U.S. West could bring blizzard-like conditions and brutally cold temperatures
A massive winter storm sweeping across the U.S. West into the Northern Plains and Midwest on Tuesday could produce blizzard-like conditions and brutally cold temperatures, making road travel difficult and possibly causing power outages.
Officials in Minneapolis told residents to prepare for blizzard-like conditions on Wednesday and Thursday, telling them to move their vehicles off the streets ahead of the slow-moving storm. Experts say the growing frequency and intensity of such storms, interspersed with extreme heat and dry spells, are symptoms of climate change. While the U.S. East has experienced a relatively mild winter season, the Northern Plains has had an extreme winter season in terms of snow fall and temperatures so far, NWS meteorologist Matthew Bunkers in South Dakota said.
No significant power outages were being reported as of Tuesday morning, according to data from PowerOutage.us.
