Storm watch upgraded to warning
February 13, 2018
The winter storm watch issued for the region Monday has been upgraded to a winter storm warning in effect from 10 p.m. today through noon Wednesday for North Idaho and northeast Washington.

According to the National Weather Service, heavy snow is likely to bring four to eight inches of new snow with up to a foot at higher elevations.

Snow is expected to make travel difficult, especially for the Wednesday morning commute, with slick roads and reduced visibility, and this much snow could bring trees down into roadways and cause power outages.
