As the first snowstorm of 2024 hits northern Arizona, Coconino County is bracing for its impact. With snow expected to continue in the region through Thursday, public works workers are working hard to keep county roads open and passable. As temperatures plummet, facilities management teams are preparing county buildings for future ice conditions. The National Weather Service also forecast increased snowfall and even stronger snowstorms starting early Sunday morning.

Snowfall and temperature forecast

Three separate days of snow are expected in the Prescott area over the next 30 days. The maximum temperature on January 27th, 28th and 29th is expected to reach 14 degrees. Residents should dress accordingly as the mercury is expected to drop to -9 degrees Celsius on January 7.

Impact on local residents and services

Future changes in weather are expected to have a significant impact on local residents and services. With snow blanketing the region, residents are being asked to adjust their daily routines and prepare for potential disruptions. Local services will be challenged to maintain operations in harsh weather conditions.

Call for community support

As winter progresses, food banks across the region are reporting dwindling supplies on their shelves. This shows that there is an urgent need to increase community support and donations. During these difficult times, every contribution can make a difference.

The region is bracing for further snowstorms and cold weather, and local authorities are making every effort to minimize disruption and ensure the safety and well-being of residents. But the support and understanding of our community is paramount to getting us through the difficult times ahead.
