Light showers today will taper off tonight. Expect a brief break with dry weather Thursday into Friday. Then a trough deepens offshore followed by a low moving inland to the south late Saturday into Sunday. This could moderate snow to higher mountains, especially Northern California and moderate rain to the coast. A second low and deep trough may bring a colder and wetter pattern Monday into Tuesday. With this system there is a potential for heavy rain at the coast, moderate to heavy snowfall to the mountains, Mount Shasta area and areas east of the Cascades and areas of strong, gusty winds. Snow levels may drop and may result in light to moderate snow across lower passes and possibly down to some west side valleys. Details with this front are still uncertain, so keep checking back this week for updates.
