“As this pushes north and east and dissipates, you will most likely see some snow around parts of Tacoma, parts of Seattle, that shouldn’t build up as much. This afternoon it goes back to scattered showers,” said Nick Allard, KIRO 7 meteorologist.

Allard said that there is also potential for hail or ran/snow mix, but that all goes away as the afternoon comes. Saturday will be partly sunny, and Sunday will be mostly sunny. Monday will welcome back the rain, which will likely last overnight into Tuesday.

According to the National Weather Service in Seattle, “the snowfall total stands at 21.0″ for the season.”
