Stevens Pass could see the first snow of the season
EVERETT — Temperamental fall weather could bring the first snowfall of the season by Thursday morning. Full disclosure: To see it, you better be higher than 3,500 feet.
Possible snow for areas as low as Stevens Pass is one of the possibilities from a series of fronts moving through Wednesday through Saturday. If the cooler temperatures, possible thunderstorms and 20 to 25 mph wind gusts weren’t enough, an atmospheric river looks to bring as much as 3 to 6 inches of rain for the North Cascades on Friday afternoon into Saturday, said Jeff Michalski, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service
The first in a series of fronts moved through western Washington early Wednesday, bringing with it showers and colder air.
Forecasters said weather could destabilize Wednesday afternoon, depending on the emergence of a Puget Sound convergence zone. A convergence zone is when air flow splits around the Olympic Mountains to the West and then converges over Puget Sound. As of noon Wednesday, it was 56 degrees in Everett.
