Looking ahead, Friday morning will start cold again with many locations dipping below freezing. Skies remain mostly dry Friday with increasing clouds by daybreak.
We're colder with a quieter pattern settling in after some early morning slick spots across parts of Western Washington.Wednesday night to Thursday morning, we had a few isolated minor snowflakes reported in portions of Snohomish County, west of Olympia, and parts of southwest Washington.
While accumulations were minor if anything , we had localized slick and icy areas creating some slippery travel early this morning.Temperatures for most locations began the day in the 30s, but earlier wind chills dropped into the teens across Western Whatcom County, where a Cold Weather Advisory had been in effect. That advisory has since expired, though the air mass remains quite chilly.This afternoon, highs were limited, generally predicted to top out in the upper 30s to near 40 degrees under mostly cloudy skies with occasional sunbreaks. An isolated rain-snow mix cannot be ruled out in a few spots, but overall the trend is toward gradual drying through the day.Looking ahead, Friday morning will start cold again with many locations dipping below freezing. Skies remain mostly dry Friday with increasing clouds by daybreak.Saturday brings breezy pockets along with isolated showers, followed by a better and slightly more widespread chance of rain on Sunday.From Monday into next week, we transition into a more active pattern with periodic rounds of lowland rain and mountain snow. Snow levels remain favorable for the passes, which should support solid conditions for ski resorts heading into next week.We’ll continue refining timing and totals as the system evolves — but overall, expect a colder, gradually wetter stretch ahead.Take care,The FOX 13 Weather TeamTwo skiers rescued in separate backcountry incidents near Mount Baker in WAReptile Zoo says goodbye to Monroe, WA community following attempts to save businessCostco launches mobile app ordering for custom cakes and deli trays, easing customer woesMom urges son's killer to come forward after Seattle shooting in Pioneer SquareYoung 12's lost football at Seattle parade leads to call from Seahawk, community responseTo get the best local news, weather and sports in Seattle for free, sign up for the daily FOX Seattle Newsletter.Download the free FOX LOCAL app for mobile in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store for live Seattle news, top stories, weather updates and more local and national news.
