West Seattle snow? Still possible tonight/tomorrow – and next week

Four times a day, the National Weather Service issues its “forecast discussion,” with a behind-the-scenes/crystal-ball-type look at what its meteorologists are seeing in the hours and days ahead. The newest one says snow showers are possible tonight/tomorrow, particularly on the highest hills, while also somewhat strengthening the possibility of serious snow around Wednesday of next week (though there’s still also caveats that with four days to go, things could change).

SUNDAY UPDATE, 5:20 AM: And indeed, the NWS’s “special weather statement” has just been updated to note the midweek uncertainty.

Morgan Junction: I just a saw few teeny tiny snow flakes, then light rain, then nothing, then snow mixed with rain, now nothing. Looks like it’s trying to snow, but it’s only 38 degrees.

We saw the flakes too – I mentioned on Facebook and Twitter but was going to give it a little while longer before starting a new weather story here. Looks like that was a good call, for now. And the clouds to the west seem too high to cause too much trouble …
