3 Winter Storms Moving In

A series of three winter storms are going to bring some needed new snow to the mountains of the Inland Northwest and a mix of snow and rain to lower elevations through this weekend. Spokane might see less than an inch of snow today and tonight while North Idaho stands to collect 1 to 4 inches. Pockets of light freezing rain are possible in the Columbia Basin southwest of Spokane. A more potent storm on Wednesday into Thursday should bring moderate to heavy snow to the mountains of the region with light to moderate snow in lower elevations. Spokane might get an inch of snow. North Idaho will see more, perhaps 3 inches plus in the mountains. Freezing rain is possible in parts of the Columbia Basin from the second storm/ Mike Prager , SR. More here.

Question: Anyone suffering cabin fever out there?
