The Saturday forecast includes daytime rain/snow mix with a snow level around 1,000 feet, dropping to the valley floor Saturday night. Rain/snow showers are expected to decrease Saturday night with precipitation ending Sunday morning. Cold temperatures Saturday night could lead to icy roads Sunday morning, according to the National Weather Service; and temperatures will likely be cold enough to cause issues for budding vegetation this weekend, especially in the Upper Hood River Valley.
