Winter conditions arrived last week across the Inland Northwest as many locations received their first measurable snowfall for the season. At Cliff’s station, 0.2 inches of snow fell last Wednesday. Other locations around Coeur d’Alene picked up about 0.2 to 0.5 inches. At the Spokane International Airport, the chilly storm produced 1.1 inches of snow.
High temperatures through the first three weeks of October were relatively mild to warm. The warmest day this month was Oct. 8, with a high of 80 degrees. Readings were mostly in the 60s and 70s through Oct. 21 but dropped dramatically Oct. 25 with a high of only 35 degrees in Coeur d’Alene.
For Halloween, it appears the Inland Northwest is going to be in between storm systems. Skies are expected to be partly to mostly clear, but it’s going to be very chilly. High temperatures for Tuesday are forecast to be near 50 degrees. However, as the evening progresses, readings are expected to drop into the upper 30s to around 40 degrees, so bundle up the trick-or-treaters.
