Light snow in Whatcom a preview of the major storm heading toward the region

Slushy, wet snow fell in areas south of Bellingham early Thursday, Dec. 9 — a prelude to a much larger storm this weekend that will bring blizzard-like conditions to the mountains and strong winds and heavy rain to the Whatcom County lowlands. Snow fell near Lake Samish, at the south end of Lake Whatcom, and in Sudden Valley, starting around 8 a.m. Monday. It mostly was sticking to roofs, trees and lawns, but not to main roads, and about a half-inch to an inch had accumulated by 11 a.m.
