The wider storm

A strong cold front that moved southeast out of the Gulf of Alaska and brought lowering snow levels and gusty winds with heavy snow to southern Oregon continued east of the Cascades early on 03/01, and was followed by a strong trough associated with the axis of an upper low. This slow moving secondary low brought additional heavy snow, lingering longest in Josephine County.
