Watch out for icy spots in the Gorge this morning while showers fall in the western valleys.

After last night's snowfall in the higher elevations in the Central and Eastern Gorge, there are already school delays and changes in bus routes in some areas this morning. You can check those on our CLOSINGS page here on KATU.COM. Expect the Winter Weather Advisory to expire by 10AM- as there is a lack of moisture after this morning in most locations. Scattered showers are possible for the rest of the day. Temperatures will now warm above freezing in the Gorge. Moisture will fall as rain showers out there in the afternoon. East wind will also finally taper off by the end of the day.

Today's highs will end up in the mid 40s. Tonight, showers will continue at times. Overnight lows will drop to the low 40s.

Tomorrow's weather maker is likely to produce heavy rain at times- especially tomorrow night. The weekend forecast is also looking wet.
