...HEAVY SNOW POTENTIAL RETURNING FOR MONDAY...

While periodic snow showers are falling across portions of the
panhandle Friday and "clear and cold" conditions are expected
through this weekend, forecasters are monitoring the increasing
potential for heavy snow Monday into Tuesday.

There is moderate confidence in the timing of the snow to move in
from the west Monday morning, spreading inland through the day.
Confidence is increasing on a period of heavy snowfall rates with
at least 6 inches of accumulation and some potential for locations
to see greater than 12 inches. These details on higher snow
amounts and where that will fall will be refined in the coming
days, so stay tuned for later forecasts and updates as more data
becomes available.

Locations across the northern panhandle that already have a
significant snowpack, now is the time to take mitigation efforts
to prepare for this incoming event. This includes: removing snow
from vessels, roofs, shelters and out buildings susceptible to
collapse, pushing snow banks back, and shoveling around mail boxes
and community fire hydrants. Additionally, avalanche risk remains
elevated in much of the region.
