The following highways are impacted due to the closures:

  • State Route 64 in both directions at milepost 243 near Grand Canyon National Park

US 60 was closed in both directions between Superior and Miami due to snow and ice Monday morning but it has since reopened.
I-40 westbound from Holbrook to Winslow, State Route 89A between Sedona and Flagstaff, and State Route 87 near Winslow were also closed due to winter weather but have since reopened, ADOT said Monday morning.

The Arizona Department of Transportation recommends those who are driving in winter weather prepare to spend extended time on the road and pack an emergency travel kit.

Some areas of northern Arizona are expected to get up to 12 inches of snow during this winter storm.

The storm has also led to some delays and cancellations of high-country schools.
