WILLIAMS – Williams and Flagstaff are seeing something they haven’t seen in some time. Snow. A real snow. Predictions of 7-inches in Williams have probably already been met and the snow is still falling. The snow plows are actually plowing something and some of the street lights have turned on.

The weather forecast predicts rain and snow today with winds of up to 15-mph with gusts of 24-mph.

Rain and snow is expected to continue tomorrow with up to 3-inches of new snow. Higher winds are expected tomorrow with gusts of up to 37-mph. The chance of snow drops to 40% on Tuesday and 20% Tuesday night with little or no new snow accumulation expected.

It is expected to clear up and be sunny and warm on Wednesday continuing that way for the rest of the week.

Although far from blizzard conditions, it is a welcome and hopeful sight for the City of Williams. This snow will probably do little to fill the Santa Fe reservoir without more snow later in the season to cover Bill Williams mountain.
