Pockets of light freezing rain are expected to develop across portions of central and eastern Washington Thursday morning between 4 AM and 7 AM. Our highest confidence for ice accumulation is along the US-2 corridor from Davenport to Waterville, where a light glaze to up to 0.05 inches is possible. Please be prepared for slick conditions on untreated surfaces and bridges during the morning commute.

Following a very active weekend, we are monitoring the potential for a stronger atmospheric river to bring heavy mountain rain, warmer temperatures, and breezy winds across the Inland Northwest. Our primary concern is the combination of heavy rain and warmer temperatures in the mountains. This may lead to snowmelt on mid-to-lower slopes, which would increase the risk of rock and mudslides in steep terrain, particularly in the North Cascades and North Idaho. You may also see water levels rise on small creeks and streams.
