It looks like we are finally going to get some snow and it should be a good amount. Currently, things are calm before the storm. Skies are clear, temperatures are in the single digits, and southwest winds are blowing 10-15 mph along ridgetops. Look for increasing southwest winds and clouds developing later this afternoon as a powerful atmospheric river moves in from California. Deep moisture on southwesterly flow will begin to deliver heavy snow after sundown and it looks like it's going to be a wild night up there. Up to a foot of snow seems likely by Friday morning with continued snowfall throughout the day. 12-18 inches seem likely from this event although some models are calling for more.
