Happy Friday!
Rain and snow showers from this morning have dried up this afternoon with some spotty shower activity popping up this evening before drying out overnight until tomorrow morning.
Happening behind the scenes, there is a weak ridge developing offshore that will begin to transition onshore tomorrow afternoon. In its tracks is a warmer front that’ll bring lowland rain and mountain snow into next week. From Saturday to Monday, with snow levels rising to 3,000-3,500′ there’s growing confidence that the passes will get give or take 8″ of snow.
Next week looks rainy in the lowlands with more mountain snow. The longer range outlook for late February calls for a better chance of warmer-than-average temperatures in Western Washington with above-average precipitation, meaning that we could well be done with lowland snow chances for a while — and perhaps the season (but we’ll see)!
