Washington’s Inland Northwest wakes up to a gray, damp chill as light flakes flirt with the skyline. At 34 degrees under overcast skies, Spokane feels raw, and that edge in the air hints at more February snow ahead.
Spotty snow showers remain possible through the day, though accumulation stays light. Highs climb near 42 degrees, allowing pavement to stay mostly wet by afternoon. Still, shaded roads and bridges can turn slick early.
Keep an eye on side streets and overpasses this morning. Even brief snow bursts can lower visibility and create sudden slowdowns.
Tonight, temperatures fall to around 27 degrees. A few snow showers may redevelop after midnight. Little accumulation is expected, but melting moisture could refreeze. This is prime flash freezing season. Wet pavement can harden into black ice before sunrise.
Wednesday brings a better shot at measurable snow. A 50 percent chance of snow develops, with highs near 36 degrees. Light accumulation remains possible, especially on grassy surfaces and elevated roadways.
Plan extra time for the commute. Conditions may change quickly during heavier showers.
Snow chances linger into Wednesday night and Thursday, with highs again in the mid-30s. Lows dip into the lower 20s, reinforcing icy patches each morning. Friday stays cloudy with another chance of snow and a high near 35.
By Saturday, partial sunshine returns and temperatures rebound near 40 degrees. Sunday trends milder with rain and snow chances and highs pushing the mid-40s.
Looking ahead, the 6–10 day outlook favors above-normal temperatures across much of the West. That signals a gradual warming trend into next week, with hints of early spring vibes replacing this midweek winter pattern.
