The
Snapshot: Light
snow showers tapering off today with dry and warm weather through early
Thursday morning. This fog may be persistent
through tomorrow as well.
The
Science: This morning’s
radar has a few remnant snow showers hanging around the Central Cascades. The high pressure system centered off of the
California coast will nudge north today. This will dry and stabilize the atmosphere
over Washington State for the next two days.
Thursday’s
Storm: A frontal
system sliding down the coastal waters of Canada is expected to arrive sometime
on Thursday (the exact timing is still in doubt). This could start out as rain but should turn
to snow as the storm develops. Storm
totals by noon Friday are neighborhood of around 1” of water, and 6-12” of snow
depending on the timing of the cold front.
More reliable details tomorrow.
4-7day
Long Range: High pressure
reclaims its NW territory on Friday for a dry and sunny weekend.
