Ben's WX Summary - Updated: Saturday @ 01:17pm
At this time, the forecast remains on track for a series of major winter storms to impact the area throughout much of next week, bringing our first significant snowfall accumulation of the season. For now, we're enjoying a gorgeous weekend out there with above-normal temperatures and dry weather. Expect mostly sunny skies for the remainder of the afternoon with a high around 51°, west to northwest winds 5-15 mph. Clear and cool tonight as lows drop into the lower 20s. Clouds and winds will begin to increase tomorrow as our storm approaches. Windy and cooler with highs in the mid to upper 40s, west winds gusting 10-20 mph during the afternoon. A cold Alaskan low will drop south off the California Coast on Monday, sending a series of storms into the area. The first will arrive on Monday with rain and snow showers developing during the morning, becoming heavy at times through Monday night. This first system will tap into an AR, but we're still looking at the snow level to start our around 6,500 feet, so expect heavy, wet snow. Gusty west winds will also accompany this storm, with gusts of 35-45 mph possible at times, making for areas of reduced and near-zero visibility and treacherous travel. Snow showers will become scattered on Tuesday as the snow level lowers to near 5,000 feet with highs in the 30s. The second, colder storm will arrive late Tuesday night into Wednesday, bringing another round of snow, possibly heavy at times with blizzard-like conditions. The snow level with this round should fall to around 4,000 feet, possibly lower. Daytime temperatures will struggle to get above freezing through the middle of the week, with overnight lows in the teens. Snow showers will taper off on Thursday as this broad trough slides east, with dry weather returning by Friday. Total snowfall accumulations through next week are expected in the 1–2-foot range above 5,000 feet, with isolated higher amounts possible. Another storm is possible next weekend, but confidence remains low at this time. If you have travel plans into the mountains next week for some fresh pow pow, be prepared for extremely hazardous, winter weather driving conditions and always carry those chains!
