SPOKANE -- The last day of school for most students in our area is Friday, 11 days from now marks the first day of summer, and today the National Weather Service has issued a snow advisory for the mountain passes in the Cascades.

Snowfall on the Palouse.

Locally there are reports of slide-offs along several roadways in and around Pullman.

"A picture really doesn't do justice to what we're seeing down here," said Pullman resident Steve Martinez, who e-mailed pictures to KREM.com.

"Huge flakes, snow sticking to the grass, parked car windshields covered with snow... it looks more like the beginning of the snow season down here than June 10!" he said.

In the Spokane area, KREM 2 News viewers reported a range of scattered flurries from as nearby as Spokane's South Hill to heavy snowfall - thick blowing flakes - in the Medical Lake area west of Spokane.
