Portions of eastern Arizona through New Mexico, the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles, Kansas, and southeastern Colorado will see snow accumulations of up to 6 to 12 inches, with areas of locally heavier snowfall.

In addition to snowfall, the storm will bring strong wind gusts greater than 40 mph, leading to blizzard conditions.
