Winter storm could snarl Tuesday morning commute
December 25, 2016
The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch for North Idaho and northeast Washington, including Boundary and Bonner Counties, for moderate to heavy snow Monday night through Tuesday morning.

Up to a foot of new snow is predicted over the central Panhandle mountains and the Cascade crest, with three to six inches possible through the rest of the watch area. The most snow is expected to fall from midnight Tuesday to 5 a.m.

Southwest winds of five to 15 miles per hour with gusts up to 30 miles per hour will create blowing snow, reducing visibility for travelers.
