ALT A colder weather pattern is expected Saturday through Monday over the Cascades and Olympics. Snow levels are expected to fall from 5500 feet to 3500 feet Saturday into Monday. This will result in higher elevation mountain snowfall. The main time period of concern for accumulating snowfall will be Saturday night through Monday morning, particularly over the Cascades. Precipitation, combined with colder temperatures, will result in an increased risk of hypothermia for those not prepared for the conditions. If you are heading out to hike or camp, make sure to dress for the weather. Continue to monitor the weather forecast at weather.gov. Notify friends & family of your plans.
