Strong wind gusts are expected to develop Wednesday evening and persist into early Thursday morning. Wind gusts of 50 to 65 MPH are possible, which may lead to tree damage and power outages. Other impacts include choppy lakes, difficult driving for high-profile vehicles, and the potential for blowing dust around the Moses Lake Area.
Heavy mountain snow over the Cascades and Idaho Panhandle will result in challenging travel conditions Tuesday night through Friday. Avoid travel if possible during this period, but if travel is necessary visit WSDOT or ITD 511 for latest road conditions, keep an emergency supply kit in vehicle, and carry and know how to install tire chains.
