Looking to the west throughout the day anyone want to wager against that the Pass is closed for the season?
Looks like they have been getting hammered all day.
If it is yeehaaa!!!!!!!
Cascade Hwy closure 6pm Thursday

WINTHOP –SR 20 North Cascades Highway will close temporarily on Thursday, Nov. 3 at 6 p.m. due to potential avalanche danger.
The possibility for heavy snow on Thursday night, followed by heavy rain and snow throughout the weekend, significantly increases the likelihood of avalanche through Rainy and Washington Passes. For the safety of the crews and traveling public, the road will be closed Thursday evening between the Ross Dam Trailhead on the west side (milepost 134) and Silver Star gate on the east side (milepost 171).
Reopening will be assessed early next week when conditions are determined to be safe for work.
