"Parts of Arizona will remain buried under snow Monday as a surprising late-winter onslaught paralyzed travel and closed schools. Yet much of the eastern two-thirds of the country will continue to enjoy unseasonably warm temperatures, a day before spring officially starts.
The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for the mountains of central and eastern Arizona through early Monday.
"Expect widespread snow across northern Arizona into Monday with extremely hazardous driving conditions, especially in the mountains," the weather agency said.
The city of Flagstaff is still digging out of 10 to 14 inches of snow from the weekend, which prompted school closings in the city for Monday. The city of Prescott received 8 to 12 inches.
The heavy snow and blustery winds also forced authorities to close 180 miles of Interstate 40 in northern Arizona on Sunday until further notice, the Arizona Highway Patrol said." via Tom Nelson
