Midwest Snowstorm: National Weather Service Indicates High Winds and Snow Could be Hazardous for Travel through Plains, Midwest (VIDEO)

The National Weather Service reported that parts of Colorado and northwest Kansas saw approximately 10 to 15 inches of snow Saturday, with southwestern Nebraska also hit with 7 inches.

As the storm was forecast to bring heavy snow to portions of the Plains and Midwest, with 6 to 10 inches forecast from Missouri to Ohio on Sunday, according to the National Weather Service, winter storm warnings have been issued for much of central Missouri, Illinois and Indiana.

High winds have been reported in Missouri that could make traveling with the snow hazardous, according to USA Today. Three to five inches of snow was forecast for the area, with winds reaching 18 to 30 mph, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Steve Lindenberg.

"The wind is going to be effecting everybody," he said. "It's going to certainly reduce visibility quite a bit."

A winter storm warning will take effect at 8 p.m. Sunday throughout Indiana and continue until noon Monday. The National Weather Service in Indiana is forecasting 5 to 9 inches of snow for central parts of the state Sunday.

However, many meteorologists note that winter storms in early spring are not uncommon.

"One good thing about (the snowstorms) is it doesn't matter how much you get, it usually doesn't stick around too long because temperatures start to warm up pretty good," said Dan Smith, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Lincoln, Ill.

Heavy snow wasn't the storm's only threat. The National Weather Service reported that the parts of the Southeast could see severe thunderstorms and locally heavy rainfall as the storm moves through.
