difficult |
November 2, 2017 |
A winter storm warning remains in effect until
11 a.m., and as the system develops, the outlook
continues to grow more grim for those who are
traveling in North Idaho and northeastern
Washington.
Mountain snow and valley rain and snow will
change to all snow by this evening. Heavy
accumulations are expected north of Deer Park
and Athol.
Much colder temperatures will occur into early
next week. Low temperatures for many areas with
drop into the teens. Single digits are possible
for the Republic area in northeast Washington
Friday night.
Expect moderate to heavy snow across the Inland
Northwest as cold air along a line from
Winthrop, Washington, to Avery, Idaho, will be
overrun with moist air associated with low
pressure passing through today into Friday.
Precipitation will increase by this evening with
snow levels down to valleys floors at through
Friday morning.
Plan on difficult travel conditions, including
during the evening commute today and the morning
commute on Friday.
Additional snow accumulations of four to seven
inches, with mountain accumulations up to 21
inches, are expected. |
