Another potent storm is putting millions in the United States in harm’s way again, just days after a deadly, cross-country storm left a trail of destruction in its wake.

Another significant winter storm is sweeping across the Midwest and central US with disruption likely. Millions of people along the storm's path from the West Coast to the Upper Midwest will experience significant weather impacts until Thursday.

While this storm won't produce blockbuster snow totals, it's notable for strong winds. Some areas in the Plains and upper Midwest could experience dangerous travel from blizzard or near-blizzard conditions.

Dust storms raged across New Mexico on Tuesday, snarling highway traffic as the National Weather Service pushed an emergency alert to cellphones that warned of zero-visibility conditions and adverse health consequences for infants and the elderly.

Another round of intense dust storms led to multiple crashes and at least three injuries along New Mexico highways and interstates Tuesday, officials said.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported Saturday that eight people died in an interstate pile-up after a dust storm caused a 55-car pile-up.
