Missed again! Much of the early Wednesday shower activity is happening to the south of the Portland area, but it's possible we'll see spotty snow showers before the afternoon.

There's a chance of widespread sticking snow on the Willamette Valley floor, including in Portland, through 11 a.m. on Wednesday.

KOIN 6 Weather

A winter storm on Thursday is expected to drop a half-foot of snow across the region and cause messy driving conditions. Snow began falling in the Portland area by late morning and is expected to pick up in intensity throughout the afternoon.

Today's winter storm will provide us with light to moderate snowfall totals, a light glaze of ice, and difficult travel through the evening drive home. Additional snow showers work in Friday before a bigger system arrives late this weekend.
