Rain slick pavement, gusty winds and pockets of fog could complicate travel across eastern Washington as Spokane enters an unsettled November stretch.
Temperatures could drop to just 35 degrees by early Monday, bringing a colder reminder that winter is approaching.
According to the National Weather Service in Spokane, several opportunities for rain are expected through Tuesday, November 10.
The changing weather could affect drivers along Interstate 90, U.S. Highway 2 and surrounding Spokane County roads.
Sunday Brings Rain and Gusts Near 26 MPH Saturday offers the week's warmest afternoon, with partly sunny skies and temperatures reaching approximately 61 degrees.
However, conditions begin changing Saturday evening.

Gusts could reach 25 mph, creating breezy conditions across exposed roads and open areas.
By Sunday morning, rain chances climb to 40% before 10 a.m.
Southwest winds of 10 to 13 mph could produce gusts approaching 26 mph.
