OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Another winter storm is moving across Oklahoma and the National Weather Service has issued warnings in the state.

Central and western Oklahoma are under a winter storm warning until 6 p.m. Monday while much of eastern Oklahoma is under a storm warning until 6 a.m. Tuesday.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol is reporting Monday morning that roadways are slick in spots in west-central and east-central Oklahoma. Troopers say bridges and overpasses in the Panhandle and northwestern Oklahoma are slick while fog is affecting visibility in southwestern Oklahoma.

Forecasters say up to 6 inches of snow could accumulate from central through east-central Oklahoma before the storm moves out of the state.
