AFTERNOON PASS TEMPERATURES AROUND 30. WEST WIND IN THE PASSES 10 TO 20 MPH INCREASING TO 20 TO 30 MPH WITH GUSTS TO AROUND 45 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON.
And even better is the Forecaster Discussion:
OTHER ISSUE FOR THIS SYSTEM IS CONTINUED SNOWFALL IN THE MOUNTAINS. LOOKS LIKE WILL HAVE ADVISORY AMOUNTS OVERNIGHT AND WEDNESDAY AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH. THE MODELS SHOW A GREAT DEAL OF WARMING ALOFT BUT FEEL THIS IS OVERDONE. SNOW LEVEL WILL RISE A BIT OVERNIGHT...JUMP UP A FEW THOUSAND FEET WEDNESDAY MORNING IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE FRONT...AND THEN FALL AGAIN DURING THE DAY. THIS SHOULD PULL SNOQUALMIE PASS INTO THE RAIN FOR A PERIOD OF TIME WEDNESDAY MORNING...HOWEVER THE NORTHERN AND HIGHER PASSES (ABOVE 4500 FEET) SHOULD REMAIN AS SNOW. ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED WEDNESDAY AS SIGNIFICANT WESTERLY FLOW DEVELOPS. OVERALL...AN ADDITIONAL 10 TO 16 INCHES NEXT 24 HOURS...LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS ESPECIALLY AT HIGH ELEVATIONS. SNOW ADVISORY TO BE ISSUED VERY SOON.
It's the first real solid forecast they've made all week.
