The Snapshot: 7” of snow fell yesterday with 2” over night. Clear periods with light snow showers today,

The Science: The low-pressure
system that brought the snow yesterday is drifting southeast. The center of the low is expected to track along
the Washington-Oregon border containing most
of the energy south of Stevens Pass. Therefore,
expect a few remnant show showers with sun break today.
The next strong Pacific Frontal System will arrive mid-day tomorrow with
steady snow falling through early Monday morning. Storm totals from Saturday
noon through Monday 4 am currently total 14”- 20”
of snow.
