Here's the latest form the First Alert Storm Center:
Showers will continue to move inland from the coast overnight. We've had snow as low as 1200 ft in Estacada, but the snow level should remain around 2,000 ft through Saturday. The valleys see rain Saturday, and we'll have to watch the development of a storm Saturday night that has the potential to bring strong winds to the valleys late Saturday night. Sunday we're back in showers and sunbreaks mode, before we dry it out for the first part of Monday. A Winter Weather Advisory is up in the mountains for 5 to 10 inches of snow at the ski areas by Saturday morning. The advisory is replaced by a Winter Storm Watch for Saturday night as yet another in this seemingly endless string of storms blows in Saturday night, promising to deliver 12 to 18 inches of new snow Saturday night and Sunday in the Cascades. The Coast is under a High Wind Watch for Saturday night for wind gusts of 60 mph. And yes it will be raining at the Coast Saturday, but showers and sunbreaks set in Sunday. Rain rolls in Monday afternoon and evening. The good news for travelers is we get dry weather Tuesday and Wednesday, leading up to rain on Thanksgiving day. But there's a good chance the rest of the long weekend will be dry.
Have A Great Weekend
