It now seems to be the Pacific Northwest's turn for snowy windy weather.
After receiving over 7" of fresh snowfall late Thursday afternoon and
evening we had a very windy night here in Northern Idaho.
My wind gauge was frozen until about 4:30 am when we had a very brief time
above freezing. I was able to record one gust of 40 MPH with many over 30.
Many of the surrounding towns recorded gusts over 50 MPH causing widespread
drifting, school closures, and power outages.
On my journey to town this morning I came across a power pole that had been
snapped off by a falling tree, this was about 1.5 miles from my place in
Cougar Gulch six miles southwest of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. The repair crews
had not yet arrived. The NWS has issued another Winter Storm watch for our
area Saturday for heavy snow.
