The Mix: snow, freezing rain, and Rain

Summary

Expect an increasing wintery mess today and into Wednesday. A real mixed bag of snow, then freezing rain, then just rain as the snow level rises. Not ideal ski conditions for the next two days. We have cold air in place and a weak weather system is moving in early today with a combination of some snow and possible freezing rain – eventually ending with rain as the snow levels rise to 5000-7000ft, late in the day. A 1000 ft lower SL at Whistler, higher by a 1000 in Oregon – but everyone vulnerable to the mixed precipitation type - especially in the passes.
