Just a taste of big snow event later this week?

Posted by Geeky Swedes on January 9th, 2011

Wet snowflakes fell Sunday afternoon around Ballard, but melted on contact. While no significant accumulation is expected, forecasters are looking ahead to Tuesday night and Wednesday, where a significant snow event could be in play.

As is typical here in Seattle, the forecast keeps shifting. At first, UW meteorologist Cliff Mass suggested it could be a historic snow event. Then he backed off as forecasts showed it heading north, perhaps into Vancouver. Now the Weather Service says the model has it shifting a little more south, which could bring 4 inches or more in the Seattle area. “It’s still way too early to know what scenario will play out,” says the Weather Service.

So… who knows, but stay tuned!
