Time and Day: 0700
Sunday
The Snapshot: Another round of snow today with drying tonight and
tomorrow. Active weather will continue
through the week.
The Science: This morning’s radar had the leading edge of the next
frontal system entering the South Puget Sound.
This system is similar to yesterday’s storm with triple point fronts
swinging through the region during the next 6-10hrs.
The approaching warm front
should begin to produce snow in a few hours. The following cold front, with an embedded upper
level ridge, will pass east of the mountains later today/tonight. This will diminish the precipitation and
produce some clearing – similar to last night.
There will be few remnant showers tomorrow morning with clear periods
through the day.
The Long Range: Another weak front enters the
scene Monday night and then again on Tuesday for more light to moderate snow
for Stevens Pass. There is signs of
higher freezing levels (+- 6500’) and moisture developing for the end of the
week.
Precipitation Ending at 4am:
Today 24hr water = .5 -.75 snow = 4-7
Tomorrow’s 24hr water = <.25 snow =
1-2
Trend and Timing:
Snow diminishes tonight with a few
lingering showers hanging around tomorrow morning.
