Mount Rainier Recreational Forecast
National Weather Service Seattle WA
257 PM PST Thu Nov 13 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
Precipitation will continue to fall over the park with a couple of
frontal systems passing through this evening into the first part
of the weekend. Snow levels will remain high, leaving the best
chance of accumulations at the summit and Camp Muir areas, with
possibilities of a slushy trace at Paradise. Precipitation chances
decrease going into next week, with cooler temperatures.

&&

.IMPACTS...
Strong winds in alpine regions on the mountain,
including the Muir snowfield, will make it difficult to move
safely and could produce local whiteout conditions. A high level
of skill and experience in alpine terrain, including use of GPS,
is recommended for navigation and camping in these conditions.

&&

.THURSDAY NIGHT...Rain and snow likely in the evening, then rain
and snow after midnight. No snow accumulation near Paradise. Snow
