STEVENS PASS MOUNTAIN WEATHER

1/19/2011 Weather


24HR SNAP SHOT starting at NOON today

Water - <.25  Snow 1-3
Freezing levels - 1000' rising to 3500"
Winds - 0-10 W


General Discussion: Some of these clouds should burn off today as high pressure briefly builds over the region. Enjoy the sun, and the amazing moon, if you can.

Long-term: A system sliding down the BC coast will bring the next chance of precipitation tomorrow. Snow with a little rain mix will be possible during this 2 day storm. High pressure appears to re-build on Saturday so the weekend looks dry for now.

TRENDS AND TIMING
Precipitation: Today will be dry. Snow will develop mid morning tomorrow and fall through the day. There is a possibility of a mixed rain event tomorrow evening, but details are fuzzy at this point. Tune in tomorrow for a better handle on the possible rain.

Freezing levels: With clearing skies tonight, surface temps will dip into the teens. Freezing levels will slowly rise tomorrow morning. Freezing levels will reach 4000’ by mid to late afternoon. At this point, it looks like freezing levels will inch up to 4500’ and then begin to fall through the night.

Winds: Light westerly flow will continue through the night. Watch for ridge top winds to ramp up tomorrow as the frontal system approaches.
