11/9/2010 Weather
24hr SNAP SHOT
STARTING AT NOON TODAY
WATER - .25, 1-3" OF SNOW
FREEZING LEVELS 2500' RISING to 4000'
WINDS - 0-10 E decreasing.
General Discussion: Radar shows a band of moisture just approaching the western flank of the Cascades. This will drop a few inches of snow on us before it moves east of the crest later today. Dry weather will follow tonight - Thursday.
Long-term: Another weak system will brush the state late Thursdays/Friday. Long-range models are having some disagreement on what the building high pressure off the northern California coast will provide for the PNW- something to keep an eye on.
TRENDS AND TIMING
Precipitation: Snow will arrive at the Pass by noon or so today, could squeeze a few inches out before it moves east. Wednesday/Thursday will be dry.
Freezing levels: Freezing levels will slowly rise to pass level by tomorrow afternoon. Freezing levels will remain near or above pass level for the next few days.
Winds: East flow will continue but weaken through the next 24 hours. SW flow will accompany the front on Thursday. jdm
