In which there might be snow.

…COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON ON THE WAY WITH SOME SNOW EXPECTED…

AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA SUNDAY BRINGING THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON TO INTERIOR WASHINGTON AND OREGON. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BELOW FREEZING FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON UNTIL FRIDAY AFTERNOON…WITH VERY COLD OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES IN THE SINGLE DIGITS AND TEENS. WINDS WILL BE GUSTY BEHIND THE FRONT INTO MONDAY PRODUCING VERY COLD WIND CHILLS. SNOW IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP SATURDAY EVENING AND CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY EVENING. MOST AREAS WILL SEE A LIGHT ACCUMULATION OF SNOW…BUT HEAVIER SNOW IS POSSIBLE OVER THE BLUE MOUNTAINS…BLUE MOUNTAIN FOOTHILLS…AND OCHOCO MOUNTAINS.

PEOPLE EXPECTING TO TRAVEL THIS WEEKEND SHOULD PREPARE FOR WINTER DRIVING CONDITIONS AND CARRY EXTRA SUPPLIES IN THEIR VEHICLES DUE TO THE VERY COLD CONDITIONS THAT ARE EXPECTED.

I’m not really excited about snow, but at least some real winter weather will be different than the lovely mild greenness they usually call winter here!

    One of the coldest winters every happened the year you were born. Perhaps you brought it with you from Iowa?

    “WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM THIS EVENING TO 12 PM CST SUNDAY…

    A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM THIS EVENING TO 12 PM CST SUNDAY.

    STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS COMBINED WITH TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM ZERO TO NEAR 20 BELOW…WILL CREATE WIND CHILLS OF 20 TO 30 BELOW ZERO. THESE DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MID DAY SUNDAY BEFORE WINDS DIMINISH.”

    Ewh! NO, you weirdo! 😉 -m

    I agree with #3. I’ll trade. Your arctic blast will be but a whisper while back here in BFE, winter will be screaming in our ears for weeks to come.
