Snow is expected to begin falling in the state by mid-afternoon today. The heaviest snowfall will occur in the Panhandle, while the south-central region will experience lighter accumulations. Next week, a warming trend is anticipated, which may be followed by another cool and rainy spell. Let’s take a closer look at the details!

Snow continues to pile up across Oregon with one more round of snow on Friday through Saturday morning. Snow accumulations of 6-12 inches are expected above 4k with wet snow conditions. Winds will be gusty on Friday but weaken on Saturday with clearing conditions. Sunday will become warm and stay dry for most of Oregon except Mt. Hood with light rain likely due to a storm system to the north.

Another storm will impact the West on Fri-Sat, bringing more snow to the Northwest and the Rockies with continued excellent late-season skiing conditions. Starting Sun, a much warmer airmass will take hold over the West with spring skiing conditions taking hold for many areas, while the Northwest will see rain. In the East, New England will see a colder pattern with several shots of snow.

Thanks for reading this summer! For the rest of this week, a cold front moving across the Central Rockies will bring showers & t-storms to WY, CO, & NM Wed-Thu while the West Coast states will see a late-season heat wave. Next week, isolated to scattered showers & t-storms develop across the West with continued mild temps. Heading into mid-month, the PNW will trend wetter and cooler.
