The storm began its journey across the nation after slamming the West Coast, where it spawned the first tornado of the year in California.

The winter weather then moved into the Plains and Midwest over the weekend, where blizzard conditions were experienced at Kansas City International Airport, and sleet and freezing rain led to numerous crashes across the region from Kansas and Missouri through the Ohio Valley.

Another death was reported in Missouri when a 61-year-old Public Works employee was struck while performing snow removal operations in Jackson County, according to MSHP. Snow removal operations paused on Sunday because of the incident and resumed on Monday morning. 

"We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Everett Carter, who dedicated 40 years of service to Jackson County, including the last 8 years with the Public Works team," Jackson County officials said in a statement.

On Monday, investigators said a Dodge City man was killed when a vehicle backed over him while he was trying to direct a vehicle out of a snowdrift-covered parking lot near the junction of K-156 and I-70.

In Illinois, officials say a juvenile was killed and another is being treated for injuries described as life-threatening after a snow tube crash in Macon County.

The Virginia Department of Emergency Management warned residents not to let their guard down during a break in the weather.

"While this break in precipitation is allowing road crews to continue to work to make roadways passable, any moisture remaining on the roadways could cause refreeze with temperatures dropping below freezing," said VDEM Chief Agency Spokesperson Jason Elmore. "Please limit travel unless absolutely necessary and don't have a false sense of security because this weather event isn't over just yet."
