BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — The second snowfall in two weeks left a thin coat of white on Mt. Bachelor and in the Cascades Friday from a storm expected to bring a wintry mix to the mountain passes over the weekend.
Mt. Bachelor’s webcams showed the snow across the slopes, though the snow stake made clear it was a dusting of less than an inch.
KTVZ News Chief Meteorologist says in this afternoon’s update, “The mountain passes are expected to see a mix of rain and snow, but little to no accumulation on the roads. Roads through the Cascades will be slick as we get our first taste of wintry driving conditions.”
If all goes well snow-wise, Mt. Bachelor will open for the winter season on Friday, Nov. 28 – the day after Thanksgiving.
