While lots of snow in the middle of winter can cause dangerous travel conditions, the first snow of the season can also cause accidents. Be careful as you and other drivers adjust to driving in poor conditions. Don’t let the first snow sneak up on you! #WeatherReady #orwx #wawx

Snow expected to make challenging travel conditions across the Cascade passes from Tuesday evening through Wednesday afternoon. Passes should expect 3 to 7 inches of snow. Plan for winter travel conditions. #wawx

A colder, drier airmass will settle into the region late Friday behind the exit of an upper weather system and cold front. This may result in season ending freezing temperatures (mid 20s to low 30s) in the Columbia Basin and adjacent foothills and valleys. #orwx #wawx
