Monday Snow Showers:

The first system drops through the region Monday. Snow showers are possible Monday afternoon and evening. Snow levels likely drop to 6000 ft. at the start which is below pass levels. Then below 4000 ft. by the end of Monday evening. 

The snow showers look to be pretty light. We could see a dusting up to an inch of snow over the passes. That could bring chain controls over the passes Monday evening, but maybe light enough that the snow doesn't stick much. Be prepared for possible winter driving conditions.

Tuesday - Wednesday:

Tuesday and Wednesday look to be dry with no weather-related travel issues currently expected.

Thursday Storm:

A stronger storm is forecast to move in Thursday morning and possibly last into Friday morning before clearing out by Friday afternoon. Snow levels look to start below pass level and fall below 4000 ft. Thursday night.

This storm could bring 1-2 feet of snow to the northern Sierra through Friday morning. Be prepared for chain controls and slow driving starting Thursday morning and lasting through Friday morning before conditions improve.

Long-Range:

Another decent storm could move through Saturday night into next Sunday the 4th. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer.
