Snowfall expected overnight

Drivers should expect slick conditions tomorrow

CHENEY – Drivers should expect wintry conditions and slick roads overnight tonight.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for 10 p.m. tonight to 10 a.m. Tuesday in advance of a storm that's expected to bring 1-3 inches of snow across the area overnight.

"Light now will develop overnight," the advisory said. "Wintry driving conditions will be possible during the Tuesday morning commute, especially on untreated roadways."

1-2 inches of snow is expected in the Davenport, Medical Lake, Airway Heights and Cheney areas, with 2-3 inches falling closer to the Idaho border around Fairfield.

The temperature is expected to climb Tuesday afternoon before another round of snow falls Tuesday evening.

"Some of these showers could be intense, resulting in brief moderate-to-heavy snow and rapidly changing conditions," the advisory said.
