A blizzard hitting the U.S. Rockies was forecast to move eastward over the next day. The coming storm was expected to exacerbate flooding along the Missouri River in areas where dozens of levees were breached in March.
A blizzard hitting the U.S. Rockies on Wednesday was forecast to move eastward over the next day, threatening to bring new flooding to the Plains states including parts of South Dakota and Missouri that are still recovering from last month's inundation.
"This is potentially a life-threatening storm," Patrick Burke, a meteorologist with the NWS's Weather Prediction Center in Maryland, said Wednesday. Pueblo, Colorado, hit 85 degrees Fahrenheit on Tuesday, but will drop down to 25F by early Thursday. Similar temperatures are forecast in Denver. Two factors may limit the flooding effect, forecasters said. Thawed ground will be able to absorb more precipitation than last month's frozen ground and a fall of heavy snow rather than rain will slow the runoff process.
