While the storm will have mostly blown itself out by Thursday night, warnings remain in place for ongoing ‘disturbed weather’ this weekend.
Weather Channel meteorologist Dominica Davis said: “Winter Storm Kayden is affecting the west right now, and it is going to bring some heavy snow as it makes its way through the Rockies and into the Northern Plains and eventually moves further east.
“We have this storm through Thursday and into Friday as well before that snow starts to wind down.
“In terms of snowfall, over some of the higher elevations we could pick up a foot or even more.”
Storm Kayden, named by The Weather Channel, has triggered a raft of severe weather warnings spanning an area of more than 400,000 square kilometres.
Kayden is forecast to sweep heavy bands of snow eastwards mid-week into eastern Montana and western North Dakota.
Heavy snow will be swept up by strong winds triggering dangerous travel conditions, experts warn.
Storm Kayden will hit California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico
