As parts of the Puget Sound region dip into record low temperatures, icy roads and the safety of pets and people are a concern.
At 7 a.m., it was 19 degrees in Bremerton, 16 in Olympia, 23 in Seattle and Everett, 21 in Bellingham, 26 in Tacoma, 19 in Chehalis and 2 degrees at Snoqualmie Pass.Morning lows are expected to be in the teens and 20s through Friday, with a slow warming trend starting on Thursday.
The cold weather could maintain the tough conditions on secondary roads, where compact snow and ice have built up. “Keep the cabinets open and let some room temperature in, that helps. And the other thing you can do with piping on the exterior wall is just leave the faucet dripping,” said plumber Brent Bates.Snow flurries from high clouds could make a brief appearance late Wednesday night and early Thursday, but there won’t be any impact expected from that, and by daybreak, any flurries should be gone, Anderson said.
Some rain moves in Saturday night and continues on and off well into next week. The wettest days look to be Sunday and Monday.
