Snow levels will drop to between 4000 and 4500 feet Thursday night into Friday morning. Expect 8-12 inches of snow over the Cascades near Crater Lake with 6-8 inches as far south as Lake of the Woods and perhaps upper portions of Mt. Ashland ski road.

With cold air arriving, rain will change to snow east of the Cascades (primarily north of Highway 140). A few inches of snow are possible along highway 97 north of Chiloquin, up around Chemult.
