LEWISTON, ID – The National Weather Service in Spokane says the potential for snow and extreme cold temperatures is looking more and more probable over the next several days. Andy Brown, Warning Coordination Meteorologist, says the next weather system coming down from the north this weekend is “dynamic” and there is a high probability of temperatures which are much below average.
Brown says the very cold Arctic outbreak is expected to settle over the region late this weekend through early next week, bringing with it the potential for three scenarios.
● Scenario 1
○ Seasonal temperatures and light snow
● Scenario 2
○ Heavy snow followed by cold temperatures
● Scenario 3
○ Moderate snow followed by VERY cold temperatures
