Winter Storm Bozeman dove into the Pacific Northwest Thursday, making central Oregon its first mark on what's expected to be a multi-day snow event stretching from the West into parts of the Plains and Midwest.
Communities in central Oregon, including Bend, were the hardest hit Thursday. At least one person died in a single-vehicle wreck in Crook County, Oregon, according to KTVZ.
Eventually, Bozeman will move out of Oregon and Washington and into states further east, with impacts expected in Idaho, Colorado, Montana, Utah and Wyoming. Impacts from snow are already being reported in southwestern Idaho.
In Idaho, the slick roads kept police busy responding to crashes Thursday. The Idaho State Police reminded people via Twitter to slow down.
At least 125 employees with the Ada County Highway District are working alternating shifts throughout the duration of the storm, according to The Idaho Statesman. Crews will use both sand and salt to treat the roads.
