Ben's WX Summary
- Updated: Wednesday @ 05:31pm
Our latest storm has exited the area, dropping around a tenth to a quarter inch of rain across most areas, with over an inch on the lower coastal slopes & near the dam. Unfortunately, this had a warmer southerly flow driving the snow level up above 7,000 feet, where just a dusting fell. Widely scattered showers will continue to taper off through tonight, with even a few flurries possible as lows cool to the 20s. Residual moisture combined with a weak upper-level disturbance and daytime heating may trigger a few afternoon showers on Thursday, though no significant rain or snow is anticipated. Cool and breezy tomorrow with highs in the 40s, west to northwest winds 5-15 mph. Fair and a little warmer on Friday and Saturday as a weak ridging returns, this will push daytime back up around 50 degrees, while overnight lows drop into the 20s. We then focus our attention on the next series of storms forecast to arrive Sunday through the middle of next week. A deep trough of low pressure will dig south from the Gulf of Alaska, sending this series of colder storms into the region. The first should arrive on Sunday with clouds and winds increasing during the morning and snow showers developing by afternoon. The snow level will likely start out above 6,000 feet but fall to around 5,000 feet on Monday as the second system passes through. This could bring snow, possibly heavy at times into Tuesday as the 3rd wave slides through the area. Daytime temperatures will fall to the lower 30s early next week as lows dip back into the teens. The snow level could also fall as low as 3,000 feet by Tuesday or Wednesday, where preliminary accumulations of 1-2 feet are possible. We could even see isolated higher amounts near 3 feet, especially up at resort level. Snow showers should taper off on Wednesday with a little break on Thursday, but more wintry weather is possible next Friday into the following weekend. While this is still a little ways out there, confidence continues to increase we may experience our strongest "winter" storm, season to date. If you have travel plans into the mountains, be ultra-prepared for winter weather driving conditions and always carry chains! Expect more info as we approach the weekend and the details come into better focus.
