SPOKANE, Wash. — Many school districts closed on Wednesday and Thursday after a snowstorm dumped more than a foot of snow in some areas. Spokane got 6"-10" of snow in Wednesday's storm, while some areas further north and east got even more.
On Friday, Dec. 2, some schools will delay or cancel classes. Major roads are looking better, but some neighborhoods have not yet been plowed. Drivers are advised to drive with care and caution this morning as there are still some icy spots.
Spokane Public Schools is on a regular schedule.
Schools closing Friday, Dec. 2
- Mead School District
- Chapel's Children's Center
School delays
- Wilson Creek School District 2-hour delay.
A drier pattern sets in Friday as temperatures drop. Overnight lows will be in the teens in the coming days, with daytime highs in the upper 20s. It seems that persistent cold is just something we can't kick.
A storm passing off the Pacific will bring a quick shot of showers Friday evening for the Cascades and a little light snow to parts of northern Washington early Saturday morning. For the most part, Spokane and the surrounding communities remain dry through the weekend.
The next real chance at some snow arrives Monday, until then the name of the game is staying warm. Parts of northern Washington will drop to near 0° in the coming mornings, the coldest we've been so far this season.
MORE SNOW LATER THIS WEEK
The weather pattern stays unsettled right into the weekend. Snow showers will continue into Thursday with an additional 1-2" possible for the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene area. Another wave of snow is expected Friday night into Saturday which should bring yet another 1-2". We'll finally get a break from the active weather on Sunday and Monday, with a ridge of high pressure moving in.
Don't expect this week's snowfall to melt off anytime soon. Below-average temperatures are expected through the weekend with highs in the 20s and lows in the teens.
