A storm in the North Pacific was nearing the northwest coast this morning. Snow will spread into the warned area from the west late tonight and continue through Friday morning. Snow will accumulate 2 to 4 inches in the valleys and up to 6 inches in the mountains. Winds will increase to 15 to 25 mph tonight and produce areas of blowing snow and poor visibility. Roads will become snow-covered and dangerous as temperatures will stay below freezing throughout the event. Snow will taper to snow showers by noon Friday.
A Snow and Blowing Snow Advisory means that visibilities will be limited due to a combination of falling and blowing snow. Use caution when traveling... especially in open areas.
