As far as mountain snow goes we have good news, bad news and maybe some delayed good news.
The first round of good news is that some snow will fall in the 4,000- to 6,000-foot range — maybe 6 inches to a foot above 6,000 feet today through early Saturday.
The pending bad news is that 4-8 inches of warm rain over the weekend will wash it away. Depending on where the atmospheric river sets up we could see 2-4 inches of rain here in Clark County. There may be some flooding issues around the Northwest.
The remaining good news, if it materializes, is that some forecast models are still indicating a colder northerly flow of air beginning Christmas Eve. That could bring a little mountain snow. This flow is usually dry so I wouldn’t expect enough mountain snow to keep the ski areas up and running for Christmas Day. But it at least may open the door for some sticking snow.
