Morning's precip is just a warmup - the main event will happen in the evening - 4-6" accumulation. From Cliff Mass:
A Snow Event in Two Acts
Today's snow event will be in two acts, with the first one already begun. Very light snow is now falling over Northwest Washington (locations such as Bellingham and Orcas Island)--something that is confirmed by the 8:30 AM weather radar.
He analyzes several of the latest forecasts and then closes witt this:
Later today I will talk about the next big snow threats... late Sunday/Monday for SW Washington and Oregon and Tuesday for Washington. Today is just a "warm up" as cold air remains in place for most of the week. And no, I won't give a name to the upcoming snow events (but the picture below is a hint)

Be afraid. Be very afraid. Planning on camping out down here - not going anywhere soon.
