The total snow accumulations above the 4,000 foot elevation, will range from three inches to one foot.

Plan on difficult travel conditions. Expect some mountain travel impacts such as delays, snow covered roads, low visibility and chain controls during this time.

If you plan to travel, consider alternate strategies. If you must travel, remember to carry tire chains, plenty of food, a good deal of water, and warm clothing in your vehicle.
