What to expect in the coming days

By Rod Hill on 2011-02-15


Active weather returns to the Northwest!  Here are the headlines I am tracking:

Monday:  Rain increases ahead of the strongest front of the period.  Coast could see high winds of 60 mph develop.  Heavy snow in the Cascades develop.  Snow totals through Tuesday could reach 20 inches!

Tuesday:  Much colder, snow levels drop to 2,000 feet.  Rain in the valley, possible T-Storms & hail. 

Wednesday:  Precipitation becomes more sparse.  Snow level:  1,500'

Thursday:  Showers, snow level near 1,000'.  

Salem and Portland could see a mix of snow showers at times Wednesday - Friday morning.
