* WHAT...Heavy snow possible. Total snow accumulations between 10 to 18 inches possible.

There is a 50-75% chance snowfall rates will occasionally exceed 1 inch/hour along the Cascade passes between 4 PM Wednesday and 8 AM Thursday, resulting in hazardous travel conditions due to a combination of low visibilities and accumulating snow.

Winterize your vehicle and have a winter emergency driving kit readily available. Make sure your emergency kit has the following items: flashlights, batteries, blankets, a shovel, water, non-perishable food items, tire chains, etc. Now is a good time to put snow tires on your vehicle. Check on friends and family to see if they need help preparing. Monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates on this situation.
