UPATED: SATURDAY 5:30 a.m. // Weekend Forecast
Saturday: No chance of valley snow - all rain. Early morning temperatures will be 35-40 degrees. The snow level is holding near 1,500 feet this morning.
Sunday: Could be tricky. The air looks colder. Morning temperatures near 32 degrees. Not much available moisture, but we could find ourselves in the northwest quadrant of a low pressure center, which means snow showers are at least possible! Forecast data continues to show dry weather Sunday morning. During the day, scattered showers may contain a snow mix, especially at 1,000 feet. Any snow sticking in the high metro hills would quickly melt during the day.
Monday: Cold, freezing temperatures, snow possible at sea level! The flow pattern will be northwest with likely showers at times, including early morning. Monday morning's commute could see a snow shower mix below 500 feet with temperatures near and above freezing. 1-3" of snow looks at least possible 500 - 1,000 feet. If you live in the hill's, watch the forecast closely, you could have snowy roads. During the day, temperatures will warm to near 40 degrees.

Dry travel all the way to California Tuesday - Thursday. Dry weather also looks likely over the Cascades and much of Oregon and north into Washington. Thanksgiving Day looks foggy with low clouds. I am watching the potential of light rain.
