More snow's expected throughout the day Monday and lasting into Tuesday. Another 4 to 8 inches could fall by Monday evening.

The National Weather Service is also warning drivers to take caution. The storm will affect roads in the area, including along Interstate 15 in southwestern Utah near Interstate 70 and south of Cedar City.

Plows have been fighting to keep up. Accidents and a rescue have been reported.
