Just a few days ago we were talking about a major snowstorm possible. Now? If you live in the Seattle-Metro area you may be lucky to get an inch as this storm has moved its track much more north and will be bringing rain for most of the area by Wednesday morning. But through this evening, anywhere from 7pm to early morning Wednesday, you could see some snow. Specifically were looking at around 3-6" along the Hood Canal and Bellingham areas, and just a trace-2" for Olympia to Everett locales. By Wednesday morning all precipitation will be in the form of rain, except up North where cooler air from the Frasier River will supplement continued snowfall.
1-2 feet of snow will fall in the mountains before the snow level begins to rise up and over 4000ft. This could be very detrimental for our snow pack as heavy rain will contribute to melting the snow pack.
A very wet and warm series of systems appear to be moving into our area over the next 7 days. Not much break in the rain as UW's morning models pegged 5 warm fronts moving in the week.
Our very dry and cool stretch for the past few weeks will certainly be made up by the time these storm tracks move through. Stay tuned for more updates.
