We have chain controls in place along I-80 Sunday morning from Kingvale to Truckee from the heavy snow that fell overnight.

Sunday:

We could see some scattered snow showers Sunday morning. Not expecting much more in the way of accumulations. The sun should come out by the afternoon. The roads should start to melt off through the morning. Chain controls will likely be lifted by the afternoon.

The Week Ahead:

It looks like a fairly dry week through Thursday outside of a coating to an inch of snow possible Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning. Watch for slippery roads and possible brief chain controls during that period if we see a burst of snow that covers the roads.

Thursday night through Friday night we could see some rain.

Saturday:

Saturday the rain from the next storm could transition to snow through the day. That could bring rough travel and chain controls. We are still 6 days out from this storm, so a lot could change. I will be updating through the week.

Long-Range:

The active pattern may continue through the 3rd week of December, so stay tuned...
