Spokane, WA – A cold front will bring gusty winds and chilly temperatures across Spokane this weekend, creating hazardous conditions on roads and for outdoor activities. Sunday’s wind speeds could reach 35 mph, posing a threat for blowing dust along I-90 and increasing fire risks, especially in ongoing wildfire areas.
According to the National Weather Service, these winds are expected to peak in the afternoon and evening on Sunday. Residents are urged to avoid any activities that could spark new fires. Boaters are also advised to stay off the water due to hazardous conditions, especially on exposed lakes like Coeur d’Alene.
On Saturday morning, temperatures may dip low enough to create frost, especially in rural areas. Those with sensitive plants should prepare for possible freezing overnight. The overall pattern looks mild but cool, with mountain areas likely to see showers into early next week.
Locals should monitor weather alerts and plan for possible road delays, especially near dusty or fire-prone areas. Residents should also be ready for changing weather and avoid unnecessary outdoor activities on Sunday afternoon.
