Mt. Hood picks up the first snowfall of the early fall season! Timberline Lodge at 6,000' reports .27" of total moisture from Sunday night through Monday night. Surface reports show 2-3" of wet snow on the ground. Temperatures will hold near 32 degrees through Thursday morning, meaning new snow accumulations will be possible, but snow melt will likely occur as flakes try to stack up.
(Below are resort observations Tuesday morning)
Snow levels near 5,000' through Wednesday night will mean all rain over HWY 26 and Government Camp. Snowfall on the upper mountain will melt away this weekend as dry, warm weather returns. Stay updated on my Mt. Hood Weather Page.
