An intense mid-level trough moved from the desert Southwest United States into the south-central High Plains, and low-level flow brought moisture from the Gulf of Mexico into the region, allowing dew points to reach the 50s and low 60s.

On November 17, whiteout conditions forced 174 mi (280 km) of I-70 to close, from the intersection with E-470 to Goodland, Kansas.

The storm also brought flight cancellations at Denver International Airport, where 4 in (10 cm) of snow fell.
