STEVENS PASS MOUNTAIN WEATHER

12/12/2011 Weather

General Discussion: Brr. These cold temperatures will stick around for the next few days. Warmer temperatures and a chance of snow is expected later in the week.

Long-term: Our next chance of snow will be Wednesday/Thursday as a small low pressure system develops off of the BC coast. High pressure will once again bring a dry period for the weekend. The jet stream is expected to shift south over the PNW during the week. With some luck, this will take us into the Holiday season with some new snow.
