    I've seen it sell out before 11:00 AM. I'd reserve the day before.

    Ellensburg is going to fill up fast in the snow storm.. there is some decent stops in Moses lake as well..

    you are going to need chains with that much snow

    You won’t have a chance at parking in Ellensburg if it’s going to snow that much. I’d plan on stopping back in Moses Lake depending on where you are and when it starts snowing.

    What part of Seattle are you going to? Can you park at your delivery? If you can or have a spot reserved at North Bend a day early it would be better to get west of the mountains before the storm.
     
    Oxbow and tscottme Thank this.
