Temperatures plunge to nearly the freezing mark across the lowlands of western Washington Friday morning. There’s a small chance for a rain/snow mix around the lower elevations Friday morning, but accumulations under a thousand feet in elevation are unlikely. Stay tuned for updates on this story!

The total lunar eclipse is happening Thursday night to Friday morning. Unfortunately, it’ll probably be too cloudy in our region to get a good look at this neat event.

This weekend looks particularly wet and unsettled. Lowland rain will ramp up. Mountain snow could create problems for pass travelers, but on the other hand, it’ll be great for the ski resorts! Wind could be a factor on Sunday as well, but it’s still uncertain how gusty it may be. Showers continue on Monday.
