As if we haven't had enough of Mother Nature, our own weather guy Mike McCabe from KEPR Action News lets us in on another event. I'm thankful that it doesn't involve a Chinese spying balloon.

High Winds and more snow are expected for the Oregon Cascades and Blue Mountains.

According to the National Weather Service in Pendleton:

Moderate to heavy snow returns to the east slopes of the Oregon Cascades, the Blue Mountains, and the Ochoco-John Day Highlands above 3500-4000 feet. Winter Weather Advisories are in effect from 4 AM Sunday until 4 AM Monday for these areas. Lighter amounts of snow are expected over the southern Washington Cascades.

It's always a good idea to have a winter travel kit in your vehicle.

If your travels take you through the Southern and Northern Blue Mountain Foothills of Oregon, please be prepared for hazardous travel conditions. Stay alert.
