Timberline reports 14” of snow in the past 24 hours, and Mt. Hood Meadows received 12”.  A Winter Weather Advisory continues for the Cascades until 11 AM.  Passes will be snow covered and slick, as 4 to 7 inches of new snow falls today.
 
In the Metro Area, wet weather will end this evening, with temperatures falling into the upper 30s overnight.  I expect a round of fog for the morning commute tomorrow.

Most of Wednesday will be dry, with a chance of light rain developing on the coast by evening.  The next weather system rolls in Thursday morning with rain increasing throughout the day.  Snow levels will be slightly higher with this system.
We still have a good chance of rain Friday, and right now we’re calling for a chance of showers for Trick-or-Treaters!
