Winter Storm Warning


... Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 7 PM PST this
evening...

A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 7 PM PST this
evening.

Total snow fall over the northern Blue Mountains of Oregon and
the northwest Blue Mountains in Washington is expected to reach
7 to 12 inches. Most of this snow will accumulate this morning
through this afternoon. Additionally... sustained winds of 15
to 25 mph with gusts up to 35 mph at pass levels will result in
areas of blowing snow with local visibility reductions down to
one-quarter mile of less at times.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Winter Storm Warning for heavy snow means significant snow
accumulations are expected. Snowfall intensities will be heavy
enough to substantially reduce visibilities at times. Blowing
snow means blowing snow will reduce visibilities at times and
drifting snow will cause a travel hazard. For additional weather
information... check our web site at www.Weather.Gov/Pendleton.
