What "WyoTraveler" said: unless your RV is rigged for cold weather my concern is frozen pipes. There's a reason campgrounds are closed and/or empty right now.
I-84 through the Columbia Gorge can be extremely icy and dangerous especially if it gets windy.
Snow in W. Washington is predicted tonight and tomorrow. That affects everything. Take chains and throw in a shovel. Be a good Boy Scout and Be Prepared: It's too to late to get what you need If your stuck somewhere. I have experienced many times what you MIGHT be heading into. I do

Enumclaw got a nice dusting last night, I got a smattering of hail. PERFECT TIMING lol ... Off to the big box store to check out goodies.
First, heat tape. Camping World has some tank heaters in but they sound too small and over priced. Foam insulation for water lines, and foil/bubble on inner basement doors. Chains for both front and rear if needed. Shovel, sand, grammas knitted fluffy wool mittens. Electric blanket.
I record my trips in HD with a GoPro. Maybe I can get some good shots of terrible weather to post. The high in Salt Lake yesterday was 19 degrees.
In the very least, I get to tinker with the coach. I saw those automatic chains on city busses and was impressed. I was also afraid to ask how much they would be for a retrofit. Do newer rigs even have those yet??
