More snow for the Rockies! Winter storm warnings are in effect for New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas this Sunday. Winter weather advisories stretch into Texas and Nebraska from the same storm system. Heavy rain out ahead of the cold front has created flash flood warnings in Missouri.

This storm system is expected to continue tracking east by tomorrow.

Another storm will begin to slide into the Pacific Northwest by Monday. Avalanche warnings are in effect for areas outside of Seattle. Another round of heavy rain and more snow is a set up for avalanches in the mountainous West. Portland can also expect heavy rain Monday into Tuesday.

The West Coast is cold! Check out the inland and valley freeze watches and frost advisories for Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Have a beautiful Sunday.
