Cold, snow, wind!

After a relatively mild winter so far we've been hit with a blast of arctic air, snow and strong winds.  The good news is that milder air is expected to move in by Friday with highs forecast near freezing.  Saturday should bring back normal temperatures and the rain we are used to here on the west coast.
