A light snow could hit parts of Snohomish County on Friday morning.

A chance of rain and less than a half-inch of snow in Everett is possible Friday morning.

Thursday’s snow meant students in Granite Falls and Lake Stevens got to go to school late that morning.

Both districts had two-hour late starts. That won’t be a problem in those districts Friday because neither one has classes scheduled.

Lake Stevens had 1 to 2 inches of snow in parts of the district, which made sidewalks and parking lots dicey.

“As usual, one end gets nothing and the other gets a couple of inches,” district spokeswoman Arlene Hulten said.

Granite Falls received 3 to 4 inches of snow, district spokeswoman Kathy Grant said.

“It’s a winter wonderland,” she said, before the snow began to melt.

Most of Snohomish County was spared any significant accumulations Thursday.
