Spokane, WA – A mix of rain and snow will impact Spokane and surrounding areas throughout the weekend, bringing slick roads and gusty winds before conditions improve early next week.
According to the National Weather Service, Saturday will see steady rain transitioning to a mix of rain and snow overnight. Winds could reach up to 30 mph, making travel on I-90 hazardous, especially in higher elevations. Sunday will remain wet, with snow levels around 3,000 feet before another chance of rain and snow Sunday night.
By Monday, which marks St. Patrick’s Day, conditions will start improving. A slight chance of morning showers will give way to partly sunny skies and a high near 50°F. Travelers and event-goers should still be prepared for wet roads early in the day.
Looking ahead, Tuesday brings mostly sunny skies with highs in the low 50s, offering a much-needed break from the unsettled weather. Wednesday and Thursday, however, may see another round of rain, with snow possible at higher elevations.
Residents should plan for wet and potentially icy roads this weekend and take advantage of the drier conditions early next week. Keep an eye on the forecast for any sudden changes.
