Expect Snow and High Winds This Weekend in the Pacific Northwest
Alexis Thornton
11 months agoA major weekend storm will affect the Western United States for the Veterans Day weekend. The National Weather Service has a winter storm warning for the Northern Cascades, but they are not the only ones that will see nasty weather this weekend.
This will be the second of three storms that could impact the area. Many areas of Washington and Oregon saw rainfall during the first week of November that was higher than their total during October.
This is the first significant rain that has fallen since Spring in many areas. For example, in Medford, Oregon, only 0.72 inches of rain from June 1 to September 1, which is 57% below the average amount. Therefore, these storms are welcomed for the moisture that they will bring.
A third storm could move through the area starting on Tuesday or Wednesday.
