0630 Saturday:
The Snapshot: This morning’s radar has snow just beginning to
fall in the mountains. Lots-o-snow today,
tapering off tomorrow, clear and cold all of next week.
The Science: A well organized winter storm will track south
through the state today dumping over a foot of snow on the Cascades. Snow quickly diminishes early tomorrow morning
as cold, dry air flows in from the north.
Strong high pressure builds over the entire NW region on Monday for
clear and cold weather.
4-7day
Long Range: High pressure
will dominate the weather pattern into the New Year.
