The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 17, 9:56 AM PST, 4 hours 20 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Spokane WA
956 AM PST Sun Dec 17 2017
.SYNOPSIS...
Light snow returns on Sunday with the potential for moderate
accumulations on area mountain passes. A warmer and windier
weather system impacts the region Tuesday into Wednesday bringing
the potential for heavy mountain snows and mix of rain and snow in
the lower elevations. The weather will then be dry and cold for
the remainder of the week.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
Morning update: Made some adjustments to precipitation type for
the lower Basin. Precipitaiton is light but getting reports of
freezing rain and sleet around Lind, Quincy, and Moses Lake. This
lines up well with the NAM12km warm nose which will continue to
slowly expand north and east through the next 24 hours. The main
threat for mixed precipitation types shift northward toward
Ephrata, Banks Lake, and into Grand Coulee as well as the Columbia
River Valley. Amounts will remain extremely light in these rain
shadowed areas. Further east around the Snake and Clearwater River
Valleys, temperatures are still below freezing but will have time
to warm before the midlevel warming arrives around 4-6PM tonight.
Surface winds are increasing from the south and this will help
bring surface temperatures above freezing avoiding a lot of mixed
precipitation types for the unsheltered Palouse and West Plains.
Precipitation intensity will pick back up across the eastern third
of WA and N ID late this afternoon and evening as a deep slug of
moisture spills inland. This will bring one last shot of
accumulating snow into the Spokane- Cd'A - Pullman areas before
switching over to rain.
&&
.AVIATION...
18z TAFS: Another Pacific weather system will spread
precipitation over the area today. KEAT and KMWH won't see much if
any precipitation, but if it falls, it could be in the form of
very light snow/freezing rain/sleet. The KGEG/KSFF/KCOE area will
get snow for most of the day before warming toward rain this
evening. Snow intensities and resulting restrictions will bounce
around this morning with light snow but snow will pick back up
again late this afternoon evening just prior to the warm front
passage. Thereafter, thinking the warm air over snow will create a
period of IFR or LIFR conditions prior to the winds picking up
and improving vis and lifting cigs a few hundred feet. /sb
