Another storm will arrive in the Sierra and western Nevada Tuesday
into Thursday bringing the next round of precipitation to the
region. This south to north meandering storm will bring light to
moderate snow showers into western Nevada Tuesday morning. Snow
showers will begin before sunrise for areas along and south of
Highway 50 then spread northward across Interstate 80 (around 11
AM) and into northern Washoe and Lassen counties by the afternoon.
With most of the snow projected to occur during the day, only
slushy wet accumulations are forecast in the lower western Nevada
valleys. Remember to keep a close eye on road conditions Tuesday
and Wednesday commutes since there is the possibility for stronger
showers that produce enhanced snow accumulations.
