The alert calls for significant snowfall, followed by a strong surge of arctic air that will continue into next week.

"A strong Pacific low pressure system will move eastward across Washington State on Saturday," the alert reads. "Snow is forecast to begin early in the day and persist through Saturday night."

"At the same time a fresh blast of Arctic air will arrive Saturday night bringing strong winds and areas of blowing snow."
