Wider weather episode

A strong spring storm system produced heavy snow across the mountains of the Northern Panhandle as a moist warm front moved across the area during the morning hours. This was followed by a cold front that stretched across the central and northern Idaho Panhandle during the afternoon. The cold front produced a squall line that stretched from the Coeur d'Alene Area to the Camas Prairie that resulted in severe wind gusts in a couple of spots along this line.
