A major winter storm affected all of Northern Arizona from Friday (03/10) though most of the day on Sunday (3/12). Heavy snowfall and rare low elevation snowfall occurred over almost all of Northern Arizona. Snow levels dropped to as low as 2000 feet south of the Mogollon Rim. Strong winds accompanied this storm...leading to significant blowing and drifting snow.
