Grab your jacket - This weekend is supposed to get cold

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

According to the National Weather Service this weekend will be the coldest for the year so far in the cities of Vancouver and Portland and all over Southern Washington. Already, around Vancouver and the outlying areas we are seeing ponds freezing over indicating how cold the weather has been. Well, now this weekend it will be colder.

Lower elevations should be seeing some snow with perhaps over a foot of snow in the Cascades. Bundle up.. It’s gonna get cold! Saturday and Sunday will be in the 40’s and the night time temps will be very chilly in the 20’s and 30’s.

Sunday snow levels should be about 500 feet. Grab your sleds! Sunshine on Monday - put sleds away… unless your taking a trip to the higher elevations. In which case you will be able to take advantage of lot’s of fresh powder.

Or perhaps take a trip up to Cougar with your snowmobiles for a fun day in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. A few weeks ago we found a great spot for sledding off the side of the road on the way to Ape Caves.

Whatever you do - please enjoy this wonderful weekend.
