WINSLOW, AZ — Interstate 40 has reopened after a huge stretch of the highway was closed Sunday morning.

The interstate was closed between US 93 and Winslow because of "impassable conditions" due to the snow falling in the high country.

ADOT is warning of more closures if conditions continue to deteriorate across the state.

ADOT is asking motorists to avoid driving in wintry conditions to avoid getting stranded in the snow.

If you have to travel, they recommend packing an emergency travel kit before leaving.

Rain and snow is expected throughout the day across Arizona, and it could continue into Monday.
