Ice Storm in East Puget Sound Lowlands, Washington

One tenth of an inch of freezing rain reported 5 miles east northeast of Cedar Falls. Two tenths of an inch of freezing rain reported 1 mile south southwest of Sahalee.

A modified Arctic front moved into Western Washington. After producing some locally heavy snowfall on the Olympic Peninsula, it was followed by strong Fraser River outflow winds and several days of cold temperatures when a number of record low temperature records were set. It also resulted in several cold weather related deaths in King County. As precipitation moved into the region at the end of the cold episode, heavy snow was reported across the North Interior and freezing rain/drizzle resulted in travel impacts around Puget Sound.
