Colorado Cyclone and
Blizzard (1)
q For blizzard conditions to develop within Colorado cyclones, bitter cold air and associated high pressure must already be in place over the Canadian plains at the time a cyclone is developing.
qThis cold airmass is

approaching Canada.
qAs the cyclone moves
eastward, the arctic cold
air moves southward and approaches
the cyclone center.
