Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Spokane WA
1003 AM PST Sun Dec 7 2025

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Widespread precipitation on Sunday. Light snow for the
  northern valleys and mountains with rain elsewhere.

- Strong west to southwest winds Monday evening into early
  Tuesday morning.

- Increased potential for rises along small creeks and streams
  and rock slides next week due to a warm and wet weather
  pattern.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
An active weather pattern will impact the area through the week.
A series of warm and wet systems will move through. This will
result in warmer than normal temperatures, mountain snow, and
mid to low elevation rain. Widespread strong wind gusts are
expected Monday night into Tuesday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Today through tonight: After a very brief break in precipitation, an
active weather pattern is setting up and will move in tomorrow. A
frontal passage will result in lowland rain and mountain snow as
temperatures moderate and warm, moist air moves into the area. PWATs
will rise from 90-100% of normal to 150-200% of normal by tomorrow
afternoon. Additionally, temperatures will be 5-6 degrees above
normal for this time of year. Apart from some cold air remaining
over the Methow Valley, snow levels will be 3000-4000 feet. Right
now, NBM probabilities for 24-hr rainfall totals show Spokane down
to Pullman having a 35-45% chance of seeing 0.25 inches of rain or
more through tomorrow night. In the Idaho Panhandle, those
probabilities increase to 70% and above. For snowfall, Lookout Pass
has a 49% chance of seeing three or more inches of snow, and Stevens
Pass has a 15% chance. Winds throughout the basin and WA/ID Palouse
will continue gusting to 20-25 mph in the afternoon due to the
surface pressure gradient remaining strong.

Monday through Wednesday: Monday through Wednesday is when a series
of atmospheric rivers impact the forecast area. With warm and moist
air moving in, PWATs will rise to 200-250% of normal on Monday and
Wednesday. Snow levels remain high at 3000-5000 feet, meaning most
mid and low elevation areas will see rain. By early Tuesday morning,
NBM probabilities of 24-hour rainfall give Spokane, CdA, Deer Park,
Sandpoint, and Pullman an 80% chance of 0.25 inches of rain. By
Thursday morning, much of the basin areas have a 50-60% chance and
above of 72-hr rainfall totals near 0.5 inches. Snowfall along
mountain passes will be heavy. Tuesday into Wednesday, 24-hour snow
totals indicate that Lookout and Stevens Passes have a 10-20% of 6
inches of snow. As you move into the northern Cascades, those totals
rise even more. With this heavier snowfall, expect wintry conditions
along mountain passes. Winter headlines are looking more and more
likely, especially for the wetter system moving through on
Wednesday.

With a potent surface low dropping down into Montana Monday night
into Tuesday, the surface pressure gradient will tighten even
further, resulting in strong south to southwest winds. While 20-25
mph wind gusts will be widespread, the basin and Palouse in
particular will see stronger winds. NBM probabilities show a 50-60%
chance of the basin and Palouse areas seeing wind gusts 45 mph or
higher. With high res models such as the HREF showing similar
probabilities, growing confidence in these higher wind gusts
supports potential wind headlines.

Snow levels being so high will result in increased chances of
hydrological impacts occurring alongside wintry travel
conditions and high winds. A Hydrologic Outlook has already been
issued for next week indicating rises on small creeks and
streams due to low elevation snowmelt. Any moderate or high
impact burn scars will continued to be monitored closely for any
potential impacts. Additionally, there will be an increased
risk for mud and rock slides in areas of steep terrain.

The Extreme Forecast Index continues to show very anomalously high
QPF, wind/wind gusts, and temperatures Tuesday through Thursday.
This further supports the increased chances of winter and wind
headlines, alongside hydrological impacts. Additionally, clusters
currently show the ridge remaining over the area and continued
elevated PWATs Thursday through Saturday, indicating that the active
weather will continue. The Climate Prediction Center's 6-10 and 8-14
Day Outlook indicates increased chances of higher than normal
temperatures and precipitation. /AS

&&

.AVIATION...
18Z TAFs: MVFR/IFR conditions expected at KGEG-KSFF-KCOE for
the remainder of the day. KPUW-KLWS will trend towards MVFR as
rain moves in early this afternoon. A cold front passage will
lead to improved conditions across the board this evening but
but breezy southwest winds in eastern WA and north ID. A
strengthening low will bring LLWS tomorrow afternoon and
eventually strong southwest winds.

.FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND/OR ALTERNATE SCENARIOS:
High confidence in MVFR/IFR conditions for eastern WA and north
ID. Moderate confidence in improvements as a cold front sweeps
through this evening.

-----------------------

Confidence descriptors:
Low - Less than a 30 percent chance
Moderate - 30 to 70 percent chance
High - Greater than a 70 percent chance
