Winter Weather Awareness

The National Weather Service (NWS) offices in the Pacific Northwest will be holding their annual Winter Weather Awareness Campaign during the week of October 18 through October 24 to help educate the public on winter weather hazards. During this special week, they will be issuing daily statements about winter weather safety. Media outlets across Oregon, Washington and Idaho will also participate by running stories in local newspapers, radio and television broadcasts.

During that week we will post each day's topic so you can see what the NWS has to say about winter weather and how to prepare for it.

You can also find more information on winter weather safety on NWS webpages at:
