.SHORT TERM..."LOOKS LIKE I PICKED THE WRONG WEEK TO QUIT DRINKING" STEVE MCCROSKEY

PRETTY CHALLENGING NEXT FEW DAYS FOR THE FORECAST OFFICE...

Right now (as of 3:35 p.m.), our friends at the N.W.S. are shouting a winter storm warning:

.A MAJOR WINTER STORM WILL MOVE INTO WESTERN WASHINGTON FROM THE SOUTH LATE TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...BRINGING WIDESPREAD HEAVY SNOWFALL TO MUCH OF WESTERN WASHINGTON...

* TIMING...LATE TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING.

* SNOW ACCUMULATIONS...THE SEATTLE METRO AREA AND THE CENTRAL COAST SHOULD RECEIVE 5 TO 10 INCHES.

Cliff Mass was waffling and invoking Faust this morning and promises an update at 9 p.m.

In any case, come join us over here. Poor Steve McCroskey.
