Happy Sunday morning! A quick check of the webcam up at Stevens Pass from our friends at @wsdot shows… SNOW! As expected, a light amount of snow fell overnight and we’ll still see another inch or two as showers continue today. #wawxpic.twitter.com/sQ9m8T4r1I
Here’s the current expected snowfall totals between Saturday night and Sunday night. Stevens Pass still expected to get in on the snowfall action with 2 or 3″. But higher spots will get more and Paradise stands to get a half foot or more by the time it’s all said and done. #wawxpic.twitter.com/KFbaq6RmNy
A heads up if you plan to travel over Stevens Pass – SNOW… please use extreme caution this morning. Remember on ice and snow to take it slow. https://t.co/wxQj9Qan59
The first snows of the season are expected across the Cascades Sunday. Warm road temps will keep the accumulating snow to grassy surfaces. While this will not have an impact on travel, are you ready for winter travel? It’s coming! #wawxpic.twitter.com/sOkPpn7Jcy
