School officials in some northern Arizona districts have canceled or delayed classes for Thursday as a second powerful storm moves into the region Wednesday night.
The National Weather Service is calling for additional snowfall through Friday morning with another 8-12" possible for some areas, including Flagstaff and Williams.
Transportation officials are warning of possible whiteout conditions and urge drivers to delay travel until the storm clears. Many roadways remain closed due to snowy, icy conditions. Current road conditions are at https://www.az511.com/, and on Twitter @ArizonaDOT.
Due to extreme cold and widespread power outages, Coconino County officials have opened a warming center in Flagstaff for people in need of temporary shelter. It's located at Sinagua Middle School, 3950 E. Butler Ave.
A second warming center has also opened in Munds Park where power outages are still being reported. It's located at the Munds Park Community Church, 17670 S. Munds Ranch Rd.
