Many Willamette Valley students enjoyed a snow day, and some ventured out for a day of wintertime fun.

A Winter Weather Advisory is in place Tuesday night into Wednesday morning for the Willamette Valley.

A spokesperson for the National Weather Service said that snowfall for places like Timberline and Mt. Hood Meadows this weekend could be somewhere between 12 and 24 inches.

It’s time to break out the winter coats and tire chains: Snow and freezing temperatures are in the forecast for parts of Oregon.

Areas of Oregon can expect anywhere from a dusting to a few inches of snow tomorrow. The cold weather is predicted to continue for the rest of the week and dip into freezing temperatures.

People in much of the Willamette Valley, including Eugene and Corvallis, could be greeted by up to an inch of snow on the ground when they wake up Tuesday morning.

The South Willamette Valley got 3-7 inches of snow as of Sunday afternoon.

A cold front from Canada dropped snow across the Pacific Northwest on Sunday morning, triggering winter storm warnings for areas west of the Cascades, including lowlands and beaches.

The city’s emergency declaration means all vehicles must be removed immediately from designated snow emergency routes.

Most of the Willamette Valley and the coast won’t have a white Christmas, but snow could start falling soon afterwards.

Snow could fall in the Willamette Valley tonight and tomorrow morning. But if it does, accumulations should be minimal.

The first major snowstorm of the winter is expected to impact travel on Oregon’s mountain passes.
