...Gusty winds, rain, and Sierra snow return Tuesday night and
Wednesday morning...
The next weather system will quickly move through the region
Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. Be prepared for travel
restrictions due to gusty winds and delays in driving over the
Sierra passes.
* Winds...Gusts of 30 to 45 mph are possible Tuesday evening
through late Wednesday morning. The strongest winds should occur
early Wednesday morning with bumpy flights in and out of the
region.
* Snow...Expect some light snow to begin in the Sierra Tuesday
evening with a period of heavier snow late Tuesday night and
early Wednesday morning. A few inches of snow is expected over
the Sierra passes with light amounts sticking to roads around
the Tahoe Basin and northeast California as low as 5500 feet.
Little if any snow is expected to accumulate in Mono County.
* Additional Storms...After a fairly modest system Friday, a
potentially much stronger system is on the horizon for later
next weekend. This storm is expected to be rather warm with snow
levels at least 7000 to 8000 feet during the heaviest
precipitation. Strong winds, heavy high Sierra snowfall, and
soaking rains are possible.
