A Drier Weather Pattern This Week...

Summary

We will see a drier pattern through at least Thursday, and possibly into the final weekend of February. We will continue to watch the forecast to see when storms and travel issues could return.

Update

Drier Pattern:

We should see drier weather Sunday through at least Thursday. 

Long-Range:

The trend on the forecast models is for the cold fronts by the end of the week into next weekend to be dry as well, but we will keep an eye on that just in case we could see some light snow Friday - Saturday.

We may see a more active pattern return the 1st week of March. We will let you know as soon as storms will return and could affect travel through the Sierra.
